Calls ewmh_update_current_desktop on startup to set the
_NET_CURRENT_DESKTOP property. Without this change the property only
gets set after the workspaces have been manipulated. Also exclude
hidden workspaces (i.e. those starting with "__" from the workspace
index.
Adds tests for startup and workspace switching.
_NET_WM_STATE_DEMANDS_ATTENTION indicates that some action in or with
the window happened. It's a weaker hint than urgency flag of WM_HINTS,
but some applications and almost all Qt applications use it instead of
WM_HINTS' urgency flag (one example is Skype).

The C compiler will handle (void) as "no arguments" and () as "variadic
function" (equivalent to (...)) which might lead to subtle errors, such
as the one which was fixed with commit 0ea64ae4.
Some of them are useless nowadays, others very unlikely to be a problem.
Those which might still be interesting somewhen in the future are just
commented out.
This involves:
• Compiling with xcb-util instead of xcb-{atom,aux} (they merged the libraries)
• Not using xcb-{event,property} anymore (code removed upstream)
• Not using the predefined WINDOW, CARDINEL, … atoms (removed upstream)
• Using the new xcb_icccm_* data types/functions instead of just xcb_*
(for example xcb_icccm_get_wm_hints instead of xcb_get_wm_hints)
Also I refactored the atoms to use x-macros.
Even though i3 cannot know the width/height of some workspaces as
long as they are not initialized (say you used workspace 1 and 3,
but not workspace 2), some applications require this information.
In this case, it was Firefox which intersects the available workareas
(see mozilla/gfx/src/gtk/nsScreenGtk.cpp) and did not position some
windows correctly when being confronted with zero-width/height
workspaces.
Please note that rdesktop’s -g workarea option will not work on
64-bit systems at the moment because of a bug in rdesktop (see the
rdesktop-devel mailing list).
