--Latte panels when they touch each other are informing
each other in order to provide consistent appearance. For
example the Unity mode where a top panel and a left panel
exist at the same time. In such case if the left panel is
INBUSY background state then the top panel is informed and
because inBusy state also. This way the top border of left dock
background does not look out of place. ON THE OTHER hand if
the left dock is hidden because the use has chosen auto-hide
visibility mode or any of the dodge(s) choices then the top
panel does not have to stay in isBusy state. The patch fixes
this by applying this behavior only when the left dock is shown
e.g. the mouse has entered the dock or the dodge mode is not
activated

--automatic icon sizer is using a prediction
algorithm in order to decide to grow or not the
items size. There is a chance that the prediction
calculations are executed too early and as
such grow/shrink limits it is better to not
be to near to each other. That approach should
make the AutomaticItemSizer implementation a little
more robust.
--window manager provides two more states isMaxHorizontally,
isMaxVertically. These states can be ignored and be
considered as isMaximized only when both of these states
are valid
FIXED-IN:0.9.6
--the automatic item sizer algorithm now is present
in its own class/responsibility area. As a new
improvement/fix the new implementation provides also
a protector/tracker that when the current prediction
to grow has already be applied two steps back in
history then the growing is not applied. This way
endless loops with growings and shrinks are blocked.

--all plasma windows that are touching a screen edge
and their thickness based on the edge they are touching is
below 96px. are NOT consider as plasma panels and are
treated like normal windows for all Latte codepaths
Summary:
Added animation on background color change.
Removed test for background color that is not needed any more.

--each applets layout can not identify properly
which applet is the first/last visible from its
contents. This way we can now identify properly
at all cases which applets should remove their
margins in order to follow Fitt's Law at screen
edges. For example when a windows buttons applet
is found at the screen edge and suddently it
hides itself then the next visible applet should
be considered at screen edge and such should remove
its margins in order to touch the screen edge.
--remove the layout exception for the plasma systray
and behave for this just all the rest applets
--fix indicators for applets in order to consider
properly the indicators padding and applets margins.
In other words the Latte indicators for applets should
not take up all the length provided but ONLY the
applet length + indicators padding (without at any
case the applet length margins)

--occasionaly when the user was switching
layouts it could get some crashes. It looks
safer to unload first the Latte::Views objects
and their corresponding containments afterwards.
I tried in my system to switch multiple layouts
in plenty different configurations and I could
not get a crash. This patch should fix the
mentioned crash report if that was the root
of the issue.

--the last active window codepath provides a way to
drag and maximize/restore the last active window. This
should not occur when the last active window is not
in the current desktop and activity.

--when option "Hide Background when not needed" is
used on its own activates or not the forceTransparentPanel
code path. So when that option is enabled and any
window is touching the Latte::View then the force
transparency codepath should be disabled. In such
case the user background settings are applied.

--the previous code was updating the delayed application
data for each instance of lastactivewindow separately.
The new code is implementing this at the central
WM::WindowsTracker and just informs last active windows
to update their values
--when an application is tracked from the lastactivewindow
infrastructure it is updating the application name/icon
1500 ms after its first startup in order to fix apps cases
where they update their StartupWMClass a bit delayed

--switchToLayout dbus interface is used in order to
switch at specific layout that it is already imported.
With this commit the same dbus interface can be used
in order to import and load afterwards any latte layout
file by sending its absolute filepath
--there are distros that do not return /usr/share/applications
as their first global path for desktop files. It is better to not
just search for the "applications" path but rather the desktop
file also to make sure that we use the first one found.

--this way in multiple layouts mode when switching
different layouts the tasks/launchers are sliding in/out
only when we switch between different activities in
the same layout and NOT when switching between different
activities in different layouts
--this patch add two fixes concerning automatic
icon size when contents exceed the view maximum
length.
--A) when the function is called then it also
called one more time after 1sec to confirm that
the icon size found is valid. In the past that
approach was creating an endless loop that should
not be triggered any more
--B) the grow limit was made to be equal with
the shrink limit trying to be more predictive from
the user when the items will grow or shrink. In
the future we must take care of this if the items
grow or shrink endlessly
