Realistically, the user rect contains the unconstrained window
rectangle coordinates that we want to be displaying, in case
something in the constraints change.
Rename it to the "unconstrained_rect", and change the code to always
save it, regardless of current state.
When metacity was originally being built, the purpose of the user
rect was a lot less clear. The code only saved it on user actions,
with various other calls to save_user_window_placement() and a force
mechanism sprinkled in to avoid windows being snapped back to odd
places when constraints changed.
This could lead to odd bugs. For instance, if the user uses some
extension which automatically tiles windows and didn't pass
user_action=TRUE, and then the struts changed, the window would be
placed back at the last place a user moved it to, rather than where
the window was tiled to.
The META_IS_USER_ACTION flag is still used in the constraints code
to determine whether we should allow shoving windows offscreen, so
we can't remove it completely, but we should think about splitting
out the constrainment policies it commands for a bit more
fine-grained control.

It's been long enough. We can mandate support for these, at least
at build-time. The code doesn't actually compile without either
of these, so just consider that unsupported.
When _GTK_FRAME_EXTENTS changes, we need to redo constraints on
the window - this matters in particular if the toolkit removes
invisible borders when a window is maximized, since otherwise
the maximized window will be positioned as if it still has
invisible borders.

After reading the atom, scale the value from 0xffffffff to 0xff. Not doing so
causes Clutter to truncate the opacity value, and only read the last two digits.
Hence, 0x7fffffff (50%) becomes 0xff (100%).

We previously separated out MetaDisplay and MetaScreen. mutter
would only manage one screen, but we still kept a list of screens
for simplicity.
With Wayland support, we no longer care about the ability to
manage more than one screen at a time. Remove this by killing
the list of screens, in favor of having just one MetaScreen
in MetaDisplay.
We also kill off active_screen at the same time, since it's
not necessary anymore.
A future cleanup should merge MetaDisplay and MetaScreen. To avoid
breaking API, we should probably keep MetaScreen around as a dummy
type.
At one point, it was supported to run mutter without a compositor,
but we don't allow that any longer. A lot of code already assumes
display->compositor exists and doesn't check for a NULL pointer,
so just kill the rest of the checks.
This is specifically about managing X11 windows, not necessarily
running as an X11 compositor. By that I mean that this code is
still used for XWayland windows, and event handling is still and
modesetting / monitor management is still in core/.
This is also a fairly conservative move. We don't move anything
like screen.c or bell.c in here, even though those are really
only for X11 clients.
