Add separate mutter_plugin_manager_load() and
mutter_plugin_manager_initialize() calls so that we can just
load the plugins without start them. This is useful for introspecting
a gnome-shell plugin at build time.

To guard against CompositeNameWindowPixmap failing, just use an
error trap. Previous code used:
GrabServer/GetWindowAttributes/CompositeNameWindowPixmap/UngrabServer
To prevent BadMatch errors from !viewable, but didn't check the
return value of GetWindowAttributes and didn't check if an error
occured during the error trap. This way is more correct and more
efficient.

The overlay window was created before the plugins are loaded. Because the
composite extension immediately maps the window, we ended blanking the screen
while plugins, etc., were loading. This commit reorganizes the code so that
the overlay window is only created just before we are ready to show the
stage.
The significant impact of this change is that plugins cannot manipulate the
overlay window during their initial loading, i.e., they cannot call the
input-region API (the plugin should hook into the "show" signal if it needs
to do anything of this sort).
The commit also removes the XClearArea() call on the overlay window that
seems to have served no real purpose.
Once the window destruction is initiated, we can still manipulate our
MutterWindow with clutter API, but we can not longer use any X-based API,
or MetaWindow API to query it.
Add 'hide_after_effect' flag to MutterWindowPrivate, tracking
whether the window needs to be hidden after all outstanding effects
finish.
Set or clear the flag as appropriate in clutter_cmp_set_window_hidden.
In mutter_window_effect_completed, if hide_after_effect is TRUE
and no other effects are in progress, hide the window.
Requiring the compositor private object to be a GObject allows the
return value of meta_window_get_compositor_private() to be used
via gobject-introspection, since the type and memory management
can be determined.
This allows a reverse mapping from MetaWindow to MutterWindow.
- Change meta_window_get/set_compositor_private to use GObject
rather than void *
- Adapt code in compositor-mutter.c to match.
Fix a problem where GTK+ was warning
'gdk_window_set_user_time called on non-toplevel' for every button
press and click on the mutter stage by excluding such events from
GTK+ processing.
Add a boolean return value to meta_compositor_process_event that
indicates whether the event has been handled and should be filtered
out of the event stream and for mutter, base that on the return
value of the plugin's xevent_filter vfunc.
Add (transfer none) annotations to mutter_window_get_texture()
and mutter_window_get_meta_window(), and while add doc comments,
actually add some docs as well.
The metacity core is now directly aware of override redirect windows.
- They get MetaWindows like normal windows, so mutter no longer need to special
case them. The net wm types applicable to override redirects are also
recognised.
- The original positioning/stacking semantics of metacity with respect to OR
windows are maintained, but now it's easier to synchronize the stacking
between the core and mutter.
- mutter no longer needs to manualy track UnmapNotify, MapNotify,
ReparentNotify, CreateNotify and DestroyNotify events; instead map, unmap,
add and remove events can now be consistently delivered via the
MetaCompositor callbacks.
Since this is the most common cause of performance issues, this makes it
clearer when GLX TFP isn't being used. Note, there was a corresponding
fix to clutter_glx_texture_pixmap_using_extension() committed last week
as r3559 in the 0.8 branch.
Make MetaWindow into a GObject so that it is accessible to
gobject-introspection (also allows for signals to be added.)
Renames:
meta_window_free() => meta_window_unmanage()
meta_window_get_type() => meta_window_get_window_type()
meta_window_get_type_atom() => meta_window_get_window_type_atom()
It's more awkward and error prone, considering plugin ininteractions, to simply
show/hide the actors of hidden windows, and it seems to be more reliable to
reparent them to a hidden group instead.
We can't easily use a metacity layer to hide windows as that means we
loose our original stacking position. (Metacity's stack positions are
only valid within a single layer) We now have a "guard window" per
screen that is a fullscreen override redirect that is lowered to the
bottom of the stack. Hidden windows now remain in their original layer
so the stacking position remains valid, but all hidden windows get
XRestacked under the guard window.
A new compositor hook is also added to inform it when a window becomes
hidden/unhidded, this lets us map/unmap the corresponding actor.
missing files in preview commit (TODO: rebase -i and squash this later)
Calling clutter_actor_show_all() on the stage and overlay_group breaks
the ability for plugins to create initially hidden actors. Call
clutter_actor_show() instead.
We need to be getting ConfigureNotify events for these, so we can respond
to changes in position of these windows. We cannot add this to windows
Metacity manages, as this makes it got mental.
ClutterActors for hidden windows (such windows on different than active
workspaces and windows that are minimized) are available, and reflect the
actual state of the window. This is intended for use in task-switchers etc.
This feature is disabled by default (due to increased demand on resources),
and can be enabled through the metacity/general/live_hidden_windows gconf key.
A trivial sample window switcher is included in the scratch plugin (activated
by clicking on the slide out panel).
