Add private API to GDK to move these variables from the environment into
static scope. Also move the DESKTOP_STARTUP_ID validation here to reduce
code duplication.
Use constructors to read them as early as possible; however, do not
unset them until first requested. This avoids breaking gnome-shell and
gnome-settings-daemon, which want to use the DESKTOP_AUTOSTART_ID in
their own gnome-session clients.

This is the API used by GtkMenu to properly position menus on the screen
without requiring GTK to query the menu window's position or the work
area of where the window is positioned. It makes it possible to position
popup windows properly when using Wayland.
Make this API available to external users so custom popup windows can be
positioned properly as well.

The current way of exposing GDK API that should be considered internal
to GTK+ is to append a 'libgtk_only' suffix to the function name; this
is not really safe.
GLib has been using a slightly different approach: a private table of
function pointers, and a macro that allows accessing the desired symbol
inside that vtable.
We can copy the approach, and deprecate the 'libgtk_only' symbols in
lieu of outright removal.
