The zooming animation of the windows looks nice when animating
from the workspace display page, but looks weird from other pages
like apps page or search page since the windows come from nowhere
with an initial position not known to the user.
Instead of that just fade the desktop with the windows in its
original position.

When returning to the desktop from overview we always show the
workspaceDisplay, given that is which have the windows clones to allow
animations.
The problem becomes when previous that we were at some other
page, like Search or AppDisplay. The problem is that when showing the
workspaceDisplay the windows are repositioned. That's wanted except
when returning from overview, since that causes unwanted animations
of the windows.
To avoid that just not reposition the windows if leaving the overview.
We already have the width and height information cached in JS,
let's avoid going through gjs-gobject-clutter to retrieve them
again. As a plus, with normal properties the optimizer should
be able to generate better code.

Windows in the overview should be like they appear in the workspace,
including modal dialogs that are attached above them.
In addition, hiding the dialogs in the overview causes a flash as
dialog appears at the end of the transition.

Simply use St's existing key navigation system by making all the window
clones StWidgets, and making the WorkspacesView a focus group.
Since the workspace view is effectively "fake", we need to add a focus
delegator so that when key focus is assigned to the fake workspaces page,
we can keynav inside it properly.

Because of the animation and collision with relayout, the title of windows in overview may not appear, mainly
the first time we enter in overview
With an animation delay of 0.1s, you'll not see the difference

We added special code to sort each row in the overview so that
windows were less likely to cross lines, but the awkward control
flow meant that everything but the last row got sorted.

Commit 16fa186b63 attempted to fix the zoom animation problem
by throwing changes on the floor while the overview is animating. This has
the side effect that we might end up missing some positioning changes causes
windows to overlap the workspace thumbnails.
So revert those changes and fix it by simply by passing
WindowPositionFlags.ANIMATE during the overview animation.
This way the animation works as expected and we don't miss any position changes.

Meta laters are invoked in reverse order of registration, so
having multiple laters propagating the geometry cause all but the
first one in the frame (which is usually wrong) to be ignored.
Instead, queue at most one later call, and use the last set geometry
in the callback.

If windows are removed or added, we shouldn't keep the old layout, as it's
not valid anymore. If windows are removed, this is especially bad, as the
rows contain references to the removed window objects, causing crashes.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=698622
Instead of applying an additional scale factor to all the rows in the
layout, only do it for those rows that don't fit.
This avoids the visual distraction of resizing a row when there's no
need to.
Instead of doing an entire recalculation of window positions when
sliding the thumbnails box, simply recalculate the position and scale
with basic aspect ratio math. This also ensures that windows won't
miraculously swap positions, even if we reposition windows while the
thumbnails box is expanded.

Split out the part that moves the window clones around from
the part that calculates the window clone positions, and rename
both methods so that the overall meaning is more clear.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=694469
Repositioning will eventually be separated from recalculation
to accomodate two different geometries, so we'll need to do
the padding and area manipulation in two different areas.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=694469
As we want to eventually track two geometries, we need to rename
our very plain "_x, _y, _width, _height". While we could just prefix
them, I think that stuffing them in an object makes more sense.
At the same time, make the variable and method name more descriptive
by adding such a prefix, as well as a bit of documentation.

This was saved so that doing something which called relayout
but only changed the area rectangle would simply be needed to
recompute window scaling parameters. With the new overview
relayout, the flow control changed, it turns out that the
current layout is always cleared. Remove this for now, and we'll
put in a different strategy for this.
