Include the child widget path in the returned path now. This allows
customizing the path of the current widgets - like adding flags to child
widgets (and maybe siblings in the future).
This commit simply removes some child->parent == container checks,
to add some flexibility for containers with 'inner structure'.
If these checks are considered useful, we can bring them back
with a is_child vfunc that allows container implementations to
decided who they consider legitimate child.
This is a variant of gtk_widget_child_notify() that takes an
explicit container, instead of relying on widget->parent to
be the correct container to use.
The constant size request mode defines a request mode where
height-for-width geometry is unneeded, thus optimizing GTK+
by reducing the overall amount of requests that need to be
performed and cached while resizing an interface.
Requires fixes to GtkContainer and GtkWindow to unmap their
children, rather than just withdrawing or hiding the container
window.
Requires fix to GtkHandleBox to chain up to GtkContainer unmap.
Historically we avoided these unmaps for efficiency reasons,
but these days it's a bigger problem that there's no way
for child widgets to know that one of their ancestors has
become unmapped.
This allows us to add a check before executing
->get_preferred_height_for_width() to ensure we always
request for at least the minimum required size (and lets
us remove the warning in gtkcontainer.c telling implementors
to do this check manually from thier container implementations).
This is now used throughout in order to have the full path for a given widget,
including intermediate named regions, the default implementation just returns
the GtkContainer's path copy, no intermediate regions between.
alignment/margin vfuncs adjust_size_request/allocation
Now get_height_for_width() will internally update the for_width
before passing it to the real height_for_width() vfunc, allowing
margins and extra space for alignments to be stripped, thus requesting
sufficient height for greater than natural widths (and also accounting
for margins properly). Test case adjusted in testadjustsize to ensure
proper behavior.
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.

GtkWidget now has flags for horizontal and vertical expand, and
a compute_expand() method. compute_expand() is used by containers
to set a default expand flag. (If a widget has expand set explicitly,
it always overrides the results of compute_expand.)
GtkContainer has a default implementation of compute_expand which
simply walks over all child widgets and sets expand=TRUE
if any child is expanding.
The overall effect is that you only have to set expand on
leaf nodes in the widget tree, while previously you had to
set expand all the way up the tree as you packed every
container. Also, now containers need not have their own child
properties for expand.
For old containers which do have "expand" child properties,
they should override compute_expand and include the child
properties in whether the container is expand=TRUE.
Also, the old container should use
"child_prop_expand || gtk_widget_compute_expand()" everywhere
it previously used simply "child_prop_expand"

The geometry widget feature of gtk_window_set_geometry_hints() has
never really worked right because the calculation that GTK+ did to
compute the base size of the window only worked when the geometry
widget had a larger minimum size than anything else in the window.
Setup:
* Move the GtkSizeGroup private functions to a new private header
gtksizegroup-private.h
* Add the possibilty to pass flags to _gtk_size_group_queue_resize(),
with the flag GTK_QUEUE_RESIZE_INVALIDATE_ONLY to suppress adding
the widget's toplevel to the resize queue.
* _gtk_container_resize_invalidate() is added to implement that feature
* _gtk_widget_override_size_request()/_gtk_widget_restore_size_request()
allow temporarily forcing a large minimum size on the geometry
widget without creating resize loops.
GtkWindow:
* Compute the extra width/height around the geometry widget
correctly; print a warning if the computation fails.
* Always make the minimum size at least the natural minimum
size of the toplevel; GTK+ now fails badly with underallocation.
* Always set the base size hint; we were failing to set it
properly when the specified minimum size was overriden, but
it's harmless to always set it.
Tests:
* New test 'testgeometry' that replaces the 'gridded geometry' test
from testgtk. The new test is roughly similar but creates a bunch
of windows showing different possibilities.
* The testgtk test is removed. No need to have both.

It doesn't make sense to keep them separate as GtkSizeRequest requires a
GtkWidget and GtkWidget implements GtkSizeRequest, so you can never have
one without the other.
It also makes the code a lot easier because no casts are required when
calling functions.
Also, the names would translate to gtk_widget_get_width() and people
agreed that this would be a too generic name, so a "preferred" was added
to the names.
So this patch moves the functions:
gtk_size_request_get_request_mode() => gtk_widget_get_request_mode()
gtk_size_request_get_width() => gtk_widget_get_preferred_width()
gtk_size_request_get_height() => gtk_widget_get_preferred_height()
gtk_size_request_get_size() => gtk_widget_get_preferred_size()
gtk_size_request_get_width_for_height() =>
gtk_widget_get_preferred_width_for_height()
gtk_size_request_get_height_for_width() =>
gtk_widget_get_preferred_height_for_width()
... and moves the corresponding vfuncs to the GtkWidgetClass.
The patch also renames the implementations of the vfuncs in widgets to
include the word "preferrred".
A subclass calls gtk_container_class_handle_border_width()
in its class_init
This marks the subclass as expecting GtkContainer to deal with
border width automatically, which GtkContainer then does.
Since we have a new mechanism for requesting sizes: GtkSizeRequestIface;
it makes no sense to maintain this cache on the GtkWidget structure...
removing the requisition cache however does not break the old "size-request"
signal which is there for backwards compatability reasons.
In any case widget->requisition should not have been accessed,
gtk_widget_get_child_requisition() would have been the correct way
to consult the cache.
This commit also deprecates the newly added gtk_widget_get_requisition()
API and makes it fallback on gtk_size_request_get_size().
