Matthias Viehweger 52f0623315 feat(xworkspaces): Support occupied workspaces (#882)
A workspace is occupied if it is not active and there is at least one window managed by the WM (`_NET_CLIENT_LIST`) that has set `_NET_WM_DESKTOP` to that workspace.

The behavior when `_NET_WM_DESKTOP` is not set is not yet clear but this is unlikely to happen since most WMs will position windows on some desktop.

Closes #874
Fixes #1444
Fixes #1033 

* Set Desktop OCCUPIED if a window moves there

This covers more of an edge-case. I did this first by accident, it might
vanish later on.

* Replace tracking change of WS with currently used WS

* Untrack occupied workspaces

* Track windows and their desktops in pairs

* Match type of occupied_desktops with current_desktop

Because the index needs to be matched later on, type mismatches would be non-ideal.

* Recreate the occupied desktops everytime and remove duplicates

* Readd support for moving windows to other desktops

* Use less characters to empty the vector

* Rename variable storing the desktops

* Recount windows on every occasion

This alone simplifies the management and the lookup for occupation of a
workspace

* Keep track of number of windows in every workspace

* Add debugging output that shall be removed before merging

* Remove obsolete TODO

* m_client_list should always be diff'd, since the desktop may change

Therefore we update the desktop-count tally every time the client_list
changes. It may just be a desktop-change without a change of
clients.size()...

* Add more logging-spam to understand window/desktop lifecycle

* Lock event-handler to serialize handling of events

* Fix occupied workspace counting and change to bool array

Also, performance improvements when diffing new and old client lists

* Fix crash when all clients are removed

* Conform to linter and styleguide

* Shorten conditional as it is standard enough

Since this only guards against 0-divisions, it can be shortened
without risking too much confusion down the road.

* Guard against multiple threads accessing and modifying data

Fixes #1444

Modification of internal data happens through the handle-method, while
the build-method tries to access the data structures for display. Since
some modifications clear e.g. the m_viewports, references may become
invalid between looping over them an accessing them.

The mutex should guard against this simultanuous access.

* Do not 'adopt_lock', because calls come from very different threads

To my understanding, adopt_lock has some dependency on the mutex-ownership. Since
the lock is once called from the inside (in handle) and once from the outside (in
build), there might be a problem. After brief testing, the segfaults happened fewer
times.

See #1444

* Also listen to _NET_WM_DESKTOP

In order to move a window from one desktop to another, it is sufficient
to set the desktop-property of that window. xmonad fires a lot of events
in the case of moving a window, herbstluftwm only updates the
_NET_WM_DESKTOP-atom of the window.

This change reloads the clientlist in order to correctly set the
desktop state "occupied".

* Describe need and use of mutex

It might be possible to relieve the guard in xworkspaces_module::handle,
but I am unsure about this. Since xmonad emits a lot of events on almost
every minor change, I would let the guard keep its post, avoiding
race-conditions in event-handling.

* Give temporary variables better names

* Clarify purpose of loop

* Remove merge-remainder

* Use a simpler method to list occupied desktops.
