meta_window_group_paint tries to carefully figure out which parts of the
scene it can avoid painting. One area it avoids painting is the region of
the screen occupied by an unredirected window (if there's one present).
When subtracting from the visible region, it gets the coordinate spaces
confused, and ends up subtracting the area at the wrong offset. Fix this
by translating the rectangle subtracted from the visible region.

Instead of getting the x/y of the MetaBackgroundActor with respect to the
parent, use the same logic that we do for windows, fixing the case
where there is a more complex transformation involved.

Currently when the window group is moved, the visible region set
on the background actor no longer matches the actually visible
region, resulting in flickering around window actors.
Fix by translating the visible region with the window group.

Some apps that do a lot of rendering on the screen like games, mostly run in
fullscreen where there is no need for them to be redirected doing so does add
an overhead; while performance is critical for those apps.
This can be disabled / enabled at runtime using
meta_enable_unredirect_for_screen / meta_disable_unredirect_for_screen

Clutter now has some API to get the bounds of the current redraw clip
so Mutter no longer needs to make direct GL calls to get the scissor
rect. This should make it more robust against Cogl or Clutter changing
how it does the clipping.

Add code to track and draw the root window background. The advantage of doing
it here as compared to in a plugin is that we can use the visiblity smarts
of MetaWindowGroup to optimize out drawing the background when obscured.
If handling other than tracking the _XROOTPMAP_ID property is desired in the
future, more functionality like setting the background from a file or doing
cross-fades can be added.
The new background actor is exposed to plugins via meta_plugin_get_background_actor()
similar to other exposed actors to allow cloning the background for use in
other displays. The actual class is not installed for public consumption at
the moment since it has no useful methods.

When in a partial stage paint, we can combine that with the visibility
information in MetaWindowGroup to further eliminate unneeded drawing.
Since there is no current Clutter API to access the current clip,
drop to using GL directly.

Move all objects and functions namespaced with Mutter into the Meta namespace
to get a single consistent namespace. Changes that aren't simply changing mutter
to meta:
MutterWindow => MetaWindowActor
mutter_get_windows => meta_get_window_actors
mutter_plugin_get_windows => meta_plugin_get_window_actors
