Traditionally, WMs unmap windows when minimizing them, and map them
when restoring them or wanting to show them for other reasons, like
upon creation.
However, as metacity morphed into mutter, we optionally chose to keep
windows mapped for the lifetime of the window under the user option
"live-window-previews", which makes the code keep windows mapped so it
can show window preview for minimized windows in other places, like
Alt-Tab and Expose.
I removed this preference two years ago mechanically, by removing all
the if statements, but never went through and cleaned up the code so
that windows are simply mapped for the lifetime of the window -- the
"architecture" of the old code that maps and unmaps on show/hide was
still there.
Remove this now.
The one case we still need to be careful of is shaded windows, in which
we do still unmap the client window. In the future, we might want to
show previews of shaded windows in the overview and Alt-Tab. In that
we'd also keep shaded windows mapped, and could remove all unmap logic,
but we'd need a more complex method of showing the shaded titlebar, such
as using a different actor.
At the same time, simplify the compositor interface by removing
meta_compositor_window_[un]mapped API, and instead adding/removing the
window on-demand.

If we fail to find the IDLETIME counter, then the alarm variable will be
uninitialised. Most code paths are careful to check this before
submitting XSync calls, but there is one check missing.

Prior to the DisplayConfig merge, we would set _NET_WM_FULLSCREEN_MONITORS
to (unsigned)-1 when unset. After that, we would have invalid
reads inside meta_screen_monitor_index_to_xinerama_index() (called
with -1).
The way I read the specification, the proper way to indicate
that the window is back to fullscreen on all monitors is to
remove the property, so do that.
Also, add an assertion that meta_screne_monitor_index_to_xinerama_index()
is doing the right thing.

We want to remove a bunch of auxilliary duties from the MetaWindowActor
and MetaSurfaceActor, including some details of how culling is done.
Move the unobscured region culling code to the MetaShapedTexture, which
helps the actor become "more independent".
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=720631
When we traversed down to reset the culling state, previously we
would just skip any actors that wanted culling. In order to properly
reset the unobscured_region before painting, we need to traverse down
to these places as well. Do this by calling cull_out with NULL regions
for both arguments, and adapt existing cull_out implementations to
match.

The code that prevents the creation of multiple MonitorInfos for clones
wasn't working due to using the wrong index when getting the already
created info so fix that to use the correct one.

Ever since the change to create the output window synchronously at startup,
there hasn't been any time where somebody could set a stage region the
output window was ready, so this was effectively dead code.

I know it's confusing with the triple negative, but unredirected is how
we track it elsewhere: we have an 'unredirected' flag, and 'should_unredirect'.

Using a full InputOutput window causes us to make a full Wayland surface
for it, and go through the X server. As the goal of the guard window is
a window for us to stack minimized windows under so we can prevent them
from getting input, it makes sense to use an InputOnly window here.
We currently ignore the unobscured region when we have mapped clones in
meta_window_actor_process_damage and meta_window_actor_damage_all but
use it unconditionally when computing the paint volume.
This is wrong. We should ignore it there as well or we will end up with
empty clones if the cloned window is completly obscured
(like the tray icons in gnome-shell).

Make MetaWindowActor chain up to the generic default MetaCullable
implementation, and remove the helper methods for MetaSurfaceActor
and MetaShapedTexture.
We need to set the number of components on the CoglTextureRectangle to
prevent wasting too much GPU memory. As we need to do this before we call
cogl_texture_set_region, just remove the meta_texture_rectangle_new wrapper,
and make callers call cogl_texture_rectangle_new_with_size directly.
When GDK sends an unmaximize _NET_WM_STATE ClientMessage, it tells us to remove
the _NET_WM_STATE_MAXIMIZED_HORZ and _NET_WM_STATE_MAXIMIZED_VERT states. Before
this time, it would independently call:
meta_window_unmaximize (window, META_MAXIMIZE_HORIZONTAL);
meta_window_unmaximize (window, META_MAXIMIZE_VERTICAL);
Which, besides being foolishly inefficient, would also mess up our saved_rect
tracking, causing the window to only look like it was unmaximized vertically.
Make this code more intelligent, so it causes us to unmaximize in one call.
