This PR basically rewrites background-view to properly use the view interfaces provided by Wayfire.
It works by listening to the new pre-map signal. With it, background-view tells core that it will take over the view, so that core destroys its own view associated with the wlroots object (
wlr_xdg_toplevel
orwlr_xwayland_surface
). Then, background-view creates a new view which is crafted to fit into the requirements of the plugin and appears almost as a layer-shell view to the rest of Wayfire, resulting in its proper treatment by various plugins.
