huge fustercluck commit because there wasn't really a way to separate out the changes. better to just rip it all out at once.
* compositor and window management completely rewritten. this was the goal for E19, but it pretty much required everything existing to be scrapped since it wasn't optimized, streamlined, or sensible. now instead of having the compositor strapped to the window manager like an outboard motor, it's housed more like an automobile engine.
** various comp structs have been merged into other places (eg. E_Comp_Zone is now just part of E_Zone where applicable), leading to a large deduplication of attributes
** awful E_Comp_Win is totally dead, having been replaced with e_comp_object smart objects which work just like normal canvas objects
** protocol-specific window management and compositor functionality is now kept exclusively in backend files
** e_pixmap api provides generic client finding and rendering api
** screen/xinerama screens are now provided directly by compositor on startup and re-set on change
** e_comp_render_update finally replaced with eina_tiler
** wayland compositor no longer creates X windows
** compositor e_layout removed entirely
* e_container is gone. this was made unnecessary in E18, but I kept it to avoid having too much code churn in one release. its sole purpose was to catch some events and handle window stacking, both of which are now just done by the compositor infra
* e_manager is just for screensaver and keybind stuff now, possibly remove later?
* e_border is gone along with a lot of its api. e_client has replaced it, and e_client has been rewritten completely; some parts may be similar, but the design now relies upon having a functional compositor
** window configuration/focus functions are all removed. all windows are now managed solely with evas_object_X functions on the "frame" member of a client, just as any other canvas object can be managed.
*** do NOT set interceptors on a client's comp_object. seriously.
* startup order rewritten: compositor now starts much earlier, other things just use attrs and members of the compositor
* ecore_x_pointer_xy_get usage replaced with ecore_evas_pointer_xy_get
* e_popup is totally gone, existing usage replaced by e_comp_object_util_add where applicable, otherwise just placed normally on the canvas
* deskmirror is (more) broken for now
* illume is totally fucked
* Ecore_X_Window replaced with Ecore_Window in most cases
* edge binding XWindows replaced with regular canvas objects
* some E_Win functionality has changed such that delete callbacks are now correctly called in ALL cases. various dialogs have been updated to not crash as a result
comp files and descriptions:
e_comp.c - overall compositor functions, rendering/update loop, shape cutting
e_comp_x.c - X window management and compositor functionality
e_comp_wl.c - Wayland surface management and compositor functionality
e_comp_canvas.c - general compositor canvas functions and utilities
e_comp_object.c - E_Client->frame member for managing clients as Evas_Objects, utility functions for adding objects to the compositor rendering systems
additional authors: ivan.briano@intel.com
feature: new compositor
removal: e_border, e_container, e_popup
* added a number of new e_comp functions and macros
* options for disabling effects on objects: this option does not currently have any effect
* all modules which used gadcon popups have been adjusted
* all modules which used input windows to detect close events for gadcon popups have been adjusted to use new popup autoclose functionality
* shelves are now always drawn on the compositor canvas, meaning objects will never get clipped by the shelf (ticket #1810)
* shelves no longer have an event object

It seems people put random numbers as layers, so it is better to define
available layer numbers.
This patch also puts popups below fullscreen windows, as it sucks to get
popups during presentations. A better solution is maybe to put popups
above fullscreen, but have a presentation mode to put fullscreen windows
above popups?

this also breaks the use of e,state,focused programs on non-autohiding shelves, but nothing I'm aware of has ever used this, sooooooo :)
also probably fixes ticket #1467
SVN revision: 76320
Those static lists were only used in config dialogs, so they are not
'required' to be static and existing while E is running. The config
dialogs can just call the e_theme_*_list functions when they need to.
NB: This reduces E's memory footprint !! :)
SVN revision: 63529
added e_menu_item_new_relative(E_Menu, E_Menu_Item *rel) which appends
new item to rel or prepends it when rel is NULL.
changed e_gadcon_util_client_menu_append to to take only the gadget menu
and returns the new toplevel menu that should be shown by gcc
depending on the setting this is a new menu with gadget menu as submenu
or the gadet_menu with gadget menu items appended
updated e-modules-extra comes in a minute
SVN revision: 57826
e_widget_ilist_count does not work as it did, as it
e_widget_ilist_multi_select only queues commands and the change is not
instant. Add own counter for ilist position.
Also set pointer for config desk_list to new list on apply.

put the edge windows on the correct layers
allow edge click bindings
use actions for auto-hide shelves
toggling auto-hide will cause edge event windows to show/hide if necessary
SVN revision: 42864
* e_border_center() will center window in a better way, accounting
the shelves/panels instead of just centering on the screen. This is
better and most noticeable if screens are small and a big shelf on
just one edge.
* e_border_move_without_border(), e_border_resize_without_border()
and e_border_move_resize_without_border() will assume the given
values do not acount border/decorations (client_inset) and will do
automatically. As stated in documentation, this is specially useful
when it is a new client and thus have no decorations when it is
positioned, when decorations are added window would be placed at
wrong position. One can try this by adding efwin window overflowing
the bottom-right corner, closing it and when reopen fileman would
try to make it inside the screen, this would not work well with
part of the window still being outside.
* e_win_move(), e_win_resize() and e_win_move_resize() will now use
new e_border functions.
