transient surfaces for xwayland and tooltip love

Hi,

I stumbled on the problem of transient surfaces for xwayland. So I first
checked tooltip type of windows and decided to create these for toytoolkit as
well, so now we have a way to test the transient's on it as well.

Probably the most important on this set is how we'll decide the keyboard
focus behavior on newly created surfaces. So that's why I'm suggesting this
new transient_method on the protocol. The tooltip implementation then is just
a funny way to check if the proposed solution works here. I think it's cute :)

Now I want your opinion now to see if this is reasonable and whether we can
cross that TODO item as done or not. Protocol and implementation reside on
"tooltip" branches on my trees.


Thank you!

      Tiago
