The old shadow kernel formula is not "wrong" per se, as the only judge is if it looks good. However, the formula used is not really gaussian. Also, the kernel size calculation doesn't really make sense to me. This commit change the kernel formula to actually use a gaussian distribution. As far as I can tell, there is no perceivable difference. Except now the effective shadow radius is smaller for the same config. Also, made that part of code a bit more mordern.

Compton
This is a development branch, bug to be expected
This is forked from the original Compton because that seems to have become unmaintained. I'll merge pull requests as they appear upstream, as well as trying to fix bugs reported to upstream, or found by myself.
