These protocols are not a part of libwayland, but Weston. You can find
their specification in weston/protocol directory (those xml files) and you
can generate sources from them using wayland-scanner. Then you can link
against these sources (namely xdg-shell-protocol.c for xdg_* stuff and
fullscreen-shell-procotol.c for the another). But as far as I know, the
common wl_surface should be enough for creating a window without borders
and buttons in Weston (that's how the
weston/tests/weston-test-client-helpers.c works). So if you want to use
only libwayland-client, as you wrote before, you should not use xdg_shell
and fullscreen_shell. What you need to do is:

(connect to display and get registry)
1. bind to compositor
2. create surface from compositor
3. create shm buffer
4. set buffer's contents
5. attach the buffer to surface
6. commit the surface

Hmm, I hope I didn't forget something xD
