Added the new `clip-shadow-above` configuration and wintype option.
These allow the user to select windows to clip from the shadow region of
other windows, i.e. don't paint shadows on top of them.
This should provide a more useful and userfriendly alternative to the
deprecated `shadow-exclude-reg` option — especially for docks and bars.
Of course, we still use GLX, so we can't completely remove Xlib yet. But
this removes all Xlib uses outside of the backends.
This drops support for COMPOUND_TEXT Xorg strings, so people how wants
multilingual support has to use UTF8, which should be fine since most of
the applications support that.

Because it needs to be cleared when we reset, so we don't use a freed
fbconfig across reset.

blur_kernel_count could be none zero when user set a blur kernel but
didn't enable blur. In that case deinit_render will try to free
elements of blur_kerns_cache, causing a segfault because
blur_kerns_cache is never allocated.

Previously, only the WM windows (window manager usually reparents the
application windows under its own window so it can manage them) are
checked for alpha channels. Some of the window managers (e.g. awesome)
acquire alpha channels for all of the WM windows, whether the underlying
application windows have alpha channel or not.
With this change, the application windows are also checked for alpha
channels. If a WM window has alpha but its child doesn't, only the WM
frame will be considered to be semi-transparent. Thus preventing some
unnecessary blurring.

Currently compton handles window creation event by immediately query all
the information it needs and create a window struct with that
information. However, this is prone to race conditions.
In the future, we want to react to window creation event by creating a
placeholder in the window stack, and only query window information in a
critical section where the X server is grabbed by us.
This commit split struct win into two struct, one as placeholder, the
other for holding actual window information.

Setting glx-swap-method to value other than "undefined" and "buffer-age"
could potentially cause rendering problems. So remove them, the meaning
of the remaining options can be more precisely captured by "use-damage",
so create a new option under that name.
--glx-swap-method is deprecated in favor of the new option --use-damage.

Choose the best vsync method for the user, instead of asking them to
frustratingly try every one of the options to see what works.
With this commit, the `vsync` option will take only a boolean value.

Rational: current workaround for Composite < 0.2 doesn't work with the
GLX backend, it also doesn't handle window border properly. Plus,
Composite 0.2 came out more than a decade ago, it's safe to assume
everyone has it.

After converting from struct conv to xorg format, cache the result to
save CPU time.
And remove an unused function.

Instead of storing them as an array of xfixed.
Might cause some performance overhead for the new backend, because
it is allocating a buffer to do the conversion every frame. Will fix
later.

Window state tracking is basically the back bond of window fading. We
add a new enum field to the win struct to track the state of the window,
instead of using a set of boolean variables. We also remove the fading
callbacks, since it is only used for fading, so the potential of code
reuse is lost. And it makes the code slightly harder to understand.
Also fixed a problem that --no-fading-openclose is not behaving as
advertised (from my observation, enabling this flag disables fading
entirely, instead of just diabling it for open/close).
Also uses double for opacity everywhere internally. Use opacity_t only
when setting X opacity prop.

Put them all into one function, and move the function pointers out of
glx_session_t, making them global variables (because them don't change
after initialized). Remove the function pointer typedefs and replace
them with the ones in glxext.h
We also only lookup the functions once per a lifetime of compton.

In X, background pixmap is tiled (meaning they are repeated to filled
the window) by default. So, in the glx backend, we mimic this behavior
by binding the background pixmap of the root window (aka, the wallpaper)
to texture that repeats.

Replace most of XFlush with xcb_flush.
Also, in a lot of places, XFlush is used as if it is XSync. Replace
those cases by using xcb's _checked version of functions and
xcb_request_check.
