This patch adds a feature to take screenshots directly from Window Maker.
Having the feature embeded direclty inside Window Maker allows us to take
advantage of how Window Maker is managing and handling Windows.
Three new actions can be bound to a key shortcut from WPrefs.
The screenshot files are saved in ~/GNUstep/Library/WindowMaker/Screenshots/
dir, with a "screenshot_%Y-%m-%d_at_%H:%M:%S" format followed by the
extension. Preferably as a PNG or JPG file if available.
Meaning, to work Window Maker via WRaster needs to support
at least one of those format.
"Capture the entire screen" is quite standard, it takes a screenshot
of the whole screen area (even in multiheads env).
"Capture a portion of the screen" requires the user to draw a rectangle which
will be captured.
Those two first are quite straightforward, just taking a live picture of
the screen.
The last one is "Capture a window" which works in best effort mode,
it catures the focused window. As Window Maker by default is not using
any compositor (like for example Xcompmgr) it can only dump the content
displayed on the screen.
If a window is minimized or out of the screen, there is high chance the
image will be split or some area greyed in case other windows overlapped it.
The compiler is reporting the warning below
wtext.c:171: warning: macro "NOTIFY" is not used [-Wunused-macros]
That macro is only used once within that C file, code which is commented
out already.
On window maker built without libxpm, a simple build-in xpm support is used.
That component does not support X11 color name thus when trying to load
that image we are getting a file corrupted error.

Whenever wtokensplit is used to split into argv/argc, it's better to
use the built-in function wtokenfree() as a wfree call only on argv
is not freeing the memory properly.

This patch is adding the references for the two newly added files
save_jpeg.c and save_png.c for translation (even if those new
files are not adding any new strings to be translated).
This patch adds the RSaveTitledImage() function to the WRaster lib
to be able to save file on disk either as a PNG or a JPEG file.
Those two formats depends on optional external libs.
The function can take an optional title/comment which will
be save inside the file.
The WRaster lib and header versions are bumped.
XKeycodeToKeysym was deprecated some time ago and we replaced
those function calls to XkbKeycodeToKeysym.
Usage of XkbKeycodeToKeysym is not the best as it appears
the XKEYBOARD can be disabled via xorg.conf (at least on Linux).
So just replacing XKeycodeToKeysym() with XkbKeycodeToKeysym()
could cause run-time errors on top of the compilation warning
we may have.
Better fix is to address the problem without introducing a
dependency on XKEYBOARD. W_KeycodeToKeysym is the equivalent
code for XKeycodeToKeysym/XkbKeycodeToKeysym using
XGetKeyboardMapping instead.
As a new function is added to the library WINGs library version
is bumped.
The patch fixes the compiler warning below
menu.c: In function 'restoreMenuRecurs':
menu.c:2450:47: warning: '%s' directive output may be truncated writing up to 510 bytes into a region of size between 509 and 1019 [-Wformat-truncation=]
2450 | snprintf(buffer, sizeof(buffer), "%s\\%s", path, menu->frame->title);
| ^~
The code is taking care of checking properly the string passed to the buffer,
so there is no issue, the change is just to make the compiler happy.
The patch is trying to mitigate and properly address the issue described at
https://github.com/window-maker/wmaker/issues/26
A buggy application (in that example virtualbox) is requesting a window size creation
that is way too big and basically at the limit of X11 protocol
(width and height are defined as CARD16).
See details at https://www.x.org/releases/X11R7.7/doc/xproto/x11protocol.html
During the tests, virtualbox has been seen requesting for window creation of size 843x65508.
Even xprop is reporting incorrect values.
There had been an attempt before with the commit
https://repo.or.cz/wmaker-crm.git?a=commit;h=6668715402a5d8e2ecda6702076a06bf8988721e
But the patch is broken and not implemented at the right place.
As described in the wWindowConfigure function header, the size passed by the client app
should not be trusted and should be vetted with a prior call to wWindowConstrainSize.
wWindowConstrainSize call was missing only once in the wClientConfigure function from client.c
What wWindowConstrainSize doing now is basically setting a failsafe window size fo 640x480
if both width and height are above the size of CARD16.
If only one dimension is oversized, it's setting a default 4/3 window ratio.
Oversized here has not been changed and it's defined in windowmaker as double the screen size.
