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.

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).

Support _NET_WM_STATE_STICKY (i.e. allow third-party apps to decide
whether a window is on all workspaces). Bug found by Ka-Hing
Cheung. Closes#557536.
* src/core/window.c (set_net_wm_state): report it
* src/core/window.c (meta_window_client_message): set sticky
if we receive it
* src/core/window-props.c: set sticky if we find it
* src/core/atomnames.h: add _NET_WM_STATE_STICKY

Ensure the user_rect is set sanely for windows that start maximized.
Prevents maximized windows from warping across the screen.
Fixes bug #504692.
* src/core/window.c (save_user_placement): renamed version of
meta_window_save_user_rect().
* src/core/window.c (force_save_user_placement): similar, but will
always save user_rect even if the window is maximised or fullscreen.
* src/core/window.c (meta_window_move_resize_internal): unplaced
windows have force_save_user_placement() called instead of
save_user_placement().

application. (Both belonging to no application is not the same.)

Some refactoring, simplifying, and commenting of the non-composited
effects code. effects.c could still do with some polish, which will
come along later.
* src/core/effects.h (meta_push_effect_handler): removed since it's
never used and does nothing very useful.
* src/core/effects.h (meta_pop_effect_handler): removed since its
only effect is to crash the program.
* src/core/effects.h (META_MINIMIZE_ANIMATION_LENGTH,
META_SHADE_ANIMATION_LENGTH): move to effects.c because they're used
nowhere else.
* src/core/effects.c: there were three versions of the box-zoom effect.
Remove the one which was never used, and make only the ones which
are used with certain configure settings be compiled.
* src/core/effects.h (meta_effect_end): move to effects.c, make static,
and rename to effect_free.
* src/core/effects.h (meta_effects_draw_box_animation): move to
effects.c, make static, and rename to draw_box_animation.
* src/core/effects.h (MetaEffectType): remove the values which weren't
used.
* src/core/window.c (meta_window_shade): remove commented-out code to
call effect for shading.
* src/core/effects.h (MetaEffectFinish): remove useless MetaEffect
parameter.
* src/core/window.c (finish_minimize): remove MetaEffect parameter.
