events: Bypass windows with modal transients

The expected behavior for modal dialogs is that the user
cannot interact with the parent window. However toolkits
like GTK and Qt can only implement that behavior for windows
within the same process.

Address this by enforcing that behavior in the compositor to
get "foreign" windows and other toolkits behave consistently.
