background: simplify desktop detection to use EWMH standard

2026-05-27T21:19:24+00:00

This replaces caja desktop detection with a generic check for
_NET_WM_WINDOW_TYPE_DESKTOP windows and makes the background plugin work
with any EWMH-compliant file manager.

It now treats the background plugin as a fallback: If there's no file
manager drawing the background, then m-s-d will draw it.

This also allows us to remove a bunch of unnecessary code:
- D-Bus session manager listener
- startup delays
- screen size tracking
- crossfade support (this is broken on msd anyway)
- checking show-desktop-icons gsettings (this is only used by caja)
- checking draw-background gsettings (this should be deprecated)

Fixes #335
Fixes mate-desktop/mate-session-manager#159

plugins: add missing x11 linker flags

2024-08-15T17:59:01+00:00

Many of the plugins depend on the libX11 and libXi linker flags, but
they are missing.

With GNU libtool the -no-undefined flag is silently ignored so the build
succeeds, but with slibtool is correctly sets -Wl,--no-undefined in the
linker flags.
