[PATCH weston v2] xwm: don't set inactive surfaces as top level

Some X clients create popup or tooltips windows as top level, without
setting them as override redirect or as transient. Since we don't want
to take the focus away from a surface when one of its popup is opened,
check the _NET_WM_WINDOW_TYPE of the X surfaces being mapped and set
them as inactive if it is one of some types.
