We get a signed integer (-1 meaning "no workspace specified"), store it in
an unsigned integer, check for >= 0 (of course it is!) and set as the window
workspace (signed integer, -1 meaning "show on all workspaces"). What could
possibly go wrong?

We handle this in backend specific code for x11, so do the wayland
bits here. We can only honor this on applications that request focus
on a surface after a startup request, as we do need an explicit
surface to apply the workspace on (and we don't have additional clues
like WMCLASS on X11). Notably, gtk_shell1.notify_startup doesn't suffice.
Another gotcha is that the .request_focus happens when the surface is
already "mapped". Due to the way x11 and the GDK api currently work (first
reply on the startup id, then map a window, then request focus on that
window). This means the surface will ignore at this point
window->initial_workspace, so it must be actively changed.

This is done through gtk-shell ATM. If a window requests focus with
an invalid startup ID, just the demands-attention flag will be set.
The "did user interaction happen in between" checks are left to
meta_window_activate_full/meta_window_focus, by passing the timestamp
of the original launch request.
It relied on indices in arrays determining tile direction and
non-obvious bitmask logic to translate to _GTK_EDGE_CONSTRAINTS. Change
this to explicitly named edge constraints, and clear translation methods
that converts between mutters and GTK+s edge constraint formats.
As with xdg-toplevel, a gtk-surface can be unmanaged by the compositor
without the client knowing about it, meaning the client may still send
updates and make requests. Handle this gracefully by ignoring them. The
client needs to reset all the state anyway, if it wants to remap the
same surface.

Following up the previous patch, this patch makes the
Wayland backend send the edge constraints through a
custom protocol extension internal to GTK.
As it mature, we can think of upstreaming the protocol
to Wayland itself.
