This patch adds a capture phase to GTK+'s event propagation
model. Events are first propagated from the toplevel (or the
grab widget, if a grab is in place) down to the target widget
and then back up. The second phase is using the existing
::event signal, the new capture phase is using a private
API instead of a public signal for now.
This mechanism can be used in many places where we currently
have to prevent child widgets from getting events by putting
an input-only window over them. It will also be used to implement
kinetic scrolling in subsequent patches.

We automatically request more motion events in behalf of
the original widget if it listens to motion hints. So
the capturing widget doesn't need to handle such
implementation details.
We are not making event capture part of the public API for 3.4,
which is why there is no ::captured-event signal.
gtk_window_get/set_attached_to() is a new API that allows for windows to
be attached to a GtkWidget.
The attachment is a logical binding between the toplevel window and the
widget that generated it; this kind of information is currently used to
propagate style information from the widget to the window, but is also
useful e.g. for accessibility.

This function returns the accessible if it already exists. This way we
can call functions on the accessible from the widget itself instead of
having to rely on signals.
This patch optimizes window resizes by assuming that if a widget
has the same height at a width of 50 as with a width of 150, the
height for width 100 will also be the same.
The patch also further optimizes the cache allocator, now there
are 2 pointer arrays of up to a maximum of 5 requests, the arrays
will only be allocated if a request is ever made in that orientation
and the array will be sparse until each request is made (i.e. if a
label can only wrap to 3 lines, there will only be 3 out of a
possible 5 SizeRequest structures allocated to cache it).
This patch makes contextual height-for-width request caching
optional (the contextual cache is not allocated for widgets that
report GTK_SIZE_REQUEST_CONSTANT_SIZE).
Optimized GtkSizeGroup code that is invoked for every queued resize
and every request that is not previously cached by trading qdata on
widgets for 3 extra bitfields on the GtkWidgetPrivate structure.
Move the private get_cursor_color method belongs to StyleContext. Change
the api so that retrieving both primary and secondary color is possible.
I left the method private for now, though it should probably be public
as all the other getters.
The gtkprivate.h header contains GtkWidget-specific private symbols that
are not useful except in a handful of cases. Basically everything
includes gtkprivate.h for the GTK_PARAM_* macros.
