This fixes the immediate problem, but further work is needed on the
documentation for the GTK+ and GDK fullscreening and maximisation APIs. The
current behaviour on the Wayland backend is that (e.g.) calling:
 1. gtk_window_fullscreen()
 2. gtk_window_maximize()
 3. gtk_window_unmaximize()
will result in a normal window, not a fullscreened window. In other words, the
states don’t stack. This is potentially in conflict with the X11 backend (I
haven’t tested), and certainly isn’t mentioned in the documentation.

Either the documentation needs amending to state that this is the expected
behavior (which would be reasonable, I think); or the Wayland backend needs
some minor refactoring so that fullscreen/maximisation/transient states are
stackable.

See
http://wayland.freedesktop.org/docs/html/protocol-spec-interface-wl_shell_surface.html,
and especially wl_shell_surface::set_toplevel, for information about how
Wayland treats fullscreen, maximised and transient windows.
