[compiz] Better keybindings for move and resize

Hi,

I'm attaching a patch that improves the keybindings for keyboard
resize and move.  In both cases, the action can now be cancelled by
Esc, moving the window back to the position and size it had before the
action was initiated.  Furthermore, for the resize case, the
keybindings now work more like metacity, in that when initiated, it
starts with the cursor in the middle of the window.  The next arrow
key press makes the cursor jump to the window edge in that direction.
Subsequent arrow key presses will either resize the window by dragging
that edge or make the cursor jump one of the two adjacent edges.

Also, now that the new bindings code has landed, maybe it's time for a
release?  How about 0.1.0?  Perhaps we could even create a 0.1 stable
branch at this point.  Oh, and from a distributor point of view, would
it be possible to replace the Novell logo in the source with a generic
compiz logo?  The Novell logo is trademarked and can not be
redistributed which makes it somewhat awkward to package compiz.

thanks,
Kristian
