xdg-shell: Turn xdg_surface into a generic base interface
Split out toplevel window like requests and events into a new interface called xdg_toplevel, and turn xdg_surface into a generic base interface which others extends. xdg_popup is changed to extend the xdg_surface. The configure event in xdg_surface was split up making xdg_surface.configure an event only carrying the serial number, while a new xdg_toplevel.configure event carries the other data previously sent via xdg_surface.configure. xdg_toplevel.configure is made to extend, via the latch-state mechanism, xdg_surface.configure and depends on that event to synchronize state. Other future xdg_surface based extensions are meant to also extend xdg_surface.configure for relevant window type dependend state synchronization.
