Richard Grenville 2f0417cd74 Feature: #27: Detect shaped windows and disable shadow on them
- Optionally detect shaped windows using X Shape extension and disable
  shadow on them with --shadow-ignore-shaped.

- Some windows are bounding-shaped just to support rounded corners, like
  Chromium windows (when system titlebar is disabled in its settings).
  Add --detect-rounded-corners to treat them as non-shaped windows (thus
  enable shadow on them). The algorithm I use is not perfect and wrong
  detection results are pretty possible to appear.

- Many windows don't use X Shape extensions to add shapes but use ARGB
  background instead. These windows could only be blacklisted with
  --shadow-blacklist.

- Rename a few functions. Code clean up.

Richard Grenville 9139d038c2 Bug fix: #48: Compilation failure with old libconfig/libpcre
- Fix compilation failure with <libpcre-8.20 and <libconfig-1.4. Tested
  with libpcre-8.12 and libconfig-1.3.2, but not extensively tested.
  libconfig-1.3* probably has more limitations on configuration file
  syntax (enforces comma at the end of a setting?) and does not support
  @include.

- Make it possible to turn off PCRE and libconfig support using
  environment variable "CFG". Not well tested. CMake might provide a
  better solution.

Richard Grenville 75ebe94bb6 Feature: --no-fading-openclose to partially simulate -F
-F hasn't being working for long. This commit adds a switch
--no-fading-openclose (and a configuration file option of the same name)
to simulate the behavior when only -F is enabled, which disables fading
when opening/closing windows, and makes -F an alias for -f.

Richard Grenville 8c0379180b Bug fix: Issue #46: Optionally mark override-redirect windows as active
Attempt to fix the transparency issue of Firefox and Chromium location
bar dropdown window by marking override_redirect windows as active. This
may not work completely and could have other side effects. Experimental.
Enable by using --mark-ovredir-focused.

Richard Grenville 564e55e22c Feature: Wintype-specific options in configuration files
- Add support of window-type-specific options (fade, shadow, and
  opacity) in configuration file parsing. Syntax shown in
  compton.sample.conf.

- Replace wintype_name() with an array of window type names. Code
  clean-up.

Richard Grenville ee9e90efec Feature: Configuration file parsing
- Add support for parsing configuration files using libconfig.
  (Dependency on libconfig could be made optional once we get some
  better building system.) Few tests has been done, bugs to be expected.
  compton searches for a configuration file mostly according to the XDG
  standard. Firstly the configuration file requested by --config, then
  $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/compton.conf (~/.config/compton.conf, usually), then
  ~/.compton.conf, then compton.conf under $XDG_DATA_DIRS (often
  /etc/xdg/compton.conf). A sample configuration file is supplied as
  compton.sample.conf. Configuration file syntax may change in the
  future.  Commandline switches has higher priority than configuration
  file, except for --shadow-exclude. Use --config /dev/null to
  temporarily disable configuration file.

- Fix a bug that causes windows to disappear or be partially rendered on
  opacity changes.

- Fix a bug that causes some windows to ignore -i (inactive_opacity) and
  --inactive-dim, caused by the default window type change in
  a5d9955ca4.
