The existing workspace management code is quite hairy, with plenty of
logic inline in all of window.c, workspace.c, and screen.c, making it
hard to understand or make changes to, since you might forget to change
several of the other places the code was around.
Rewrite the internal workspace management logic so that it's
centralized and all in window.c. Document the invariants we need to
maintain, and ensure that these invariants are properly kept, with
asserts in various places.
Extensive testing on gnome-shell did not bring up any issues, and this
is a considerable cleanup.
Since commit 467465c99c we use meta_stage even on x11 which sets
clutter_stage_set_user_resizable to FALSE.
This messes things up because we ought to ignore the properties on the window
but we apperently didn't.
There is no reason why we'd want to manage the stage window.

Since commit a7b7213017, we rely on the standard property
system to initialize the window type (and likewise for the window
role since commit 031154a400). However as property hooks are
never run for properties that are not set, we end up not initializing
the window type correctly for windows with no _NET_WM_WINDOW_TYPE
property (which includes virtually all OR windows, causing them to
show up in pagers and the Shell overview and resulting in frequent
crashes due to breaking reasonable assumptions all over the place).
Introduce a new FORCE_INIT flag to allow forcing hooks to run
even when the corresponding property is unset, and use it for
both _NET_WM_WINDOW_TYPE and _NET_WM_WINDOW_ROLE.
This is so we won't poke into the MetaDisplay, which is invalid memory,
and crash. This can sometimes work right now because GSlice might not
deallocate the object immediately, but it's still not a fun thing to do.
Properties like _NET_WM_DESKTOP and _NET_WM_STATE are supposed to be
ignored after the initial map of the window, so ignore any
PropertyNotifies for these.
GTK+ likes to set these, well, _NET_WM_OPAQUE_REGION in particular, to
the same value. Save some expensive and processing when this happens. We
should probably make GTK+ smarter.
When workspaces-only-on-primary is set and a window is moved back to the
primary, we also move it to the active workspace to avoid the confusion
of a visible window suddenly disappearing when crossing the monitor border.
However when the window is not actually moved by the user, preserving the
workspace makes more sense - we already do this in some cases (e.g. when
moving between primary monitors), but miss others (unplugging the previous
monitor); just add an explicit user_op parameter as used elsewhere to cover
all exceptions.

Rather than calculate it speculatively with the current properties
which may be too new or too out of date, make sure it always fits
with the proper definition. We update it when we update the toplevel
window for X11, and when a Wayland surface is committed with a newly
attached buffer.
There's a race here. If an OR window hides itself, moves, and then shows
itself, we will send a ConfigureNotify for the old size of the window
and might receive it after the client moves itself, causing us to show
the window at the wrong location.
Simply not sending the ConfigureNotify is the easiest thing to do.
Before we unmanage, we send a ConfigureNotify to clients to let them
know if their frame is destroyed. We do this for OR windows too, even if
we really probably shouldn't.
This is based off of the client_rect. Since we listen to ConfigureNotify
on OR windows, we'll receive the event. If we don't ever update the
client_rect when moving or resizing OR windows, then we'll send
ourselves a ConfigureNotify for a 0x0 size and then think that the
client chose a new size for itself. Since our get_paint_volume is based
on that rectangle, but the TFP code inside Cogl uses XGetGeometry
itself, we get weird flickering artifacts.
For Wayland, we want to have everything possible in terms of the frame
rect, or "window geometry" as the Wayland protocol calls it, in order
to properly eliminate some flashing when changing states to fullscreen
or similar.
For this, we need to heavily refactor how the code is structured, and
make it so that meta_window_move_resize_internal is specified in terms
of the frame rect coordinate space, and transforming all entry points
to meta_window_move_resize_internal.
This is a big commit that's hard to tear apart. I tried to split it
as best I can, but there's still just a large amount of changes that
need to happen at once.
Expect some regressions from this. Sorry for any temporary regression
that this might cause.
The last commit added support for the "appmenu" button in decorations,
but didn't actually implement it. Add a new MetaWindowMenuType parameter
to the show_window_menu () functions and use it to ask the compositor
to display the app menu when the new button is activated.

The requested_rect is a strange name for it, because it's not actually
the rect that the user or client requested all the time: in the case of
a simple move or a simple resize, we calculate some of the fields
ourselves.
To the MetaWindow subclass implementations, it just means "the rect
before we constrained it", so just use the name unconstrained_rect.
This also makes it match the name of the MetaWindow field.
It looks weird to have Alt+Space pop up under the cursor instead
of the top-left corner of the window, and the Wayland request will
pass through the coordinates as well.
Add it to the compositor interface, and extend the
_GTK_SHOW_WINDOW_MENU ClientMessage to support it as well.
