1920f211b0 Remove Mutter namespace prefix
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

83f8bfd2ca Reduce overpaint in the window group
When we are painting a stack of 5-10 maximized windows, the
standard bottom-to-top method of drawing every actor results
in a tremendous amount of overdraw and can easily max out
the available memory bandwidth on a low-end* graphics chipset.
It's even worse if window textures are being accessed over
the AGP bus.

When we have opaque windows, we can go ahead and compute visibility
ourselves (in classic X-server fashion) and use that information to
restrict drawing obscured actors.

* Add MutterWindowGroup - a ClutterGroup subclass with logic
  for figuring out obscured regions.

* Add mutter_window_get_obscured_region() to get the region
  obscured by that window.

* Add mutter_shaped_texture_set_clip_region() to hint
  a clip region to the painting code; this is set based on
  the computed visible region of MutterWindowGroup.

* Add tidy_texture_frame_set_needs_paint() to hint that the
  paint can be skipped entirely; this is used when we detect
  that the window shadow is entirely obscured.
