Don't refer to things as "traditional desktop" as it is not defined
nor clear what that refers to; instead reword things in a more explicit
way. A reason for this is that xdg-shell is not strictly meant only for
traditional window stacking based desktop environments, but should be
equally suitable for stacking, tiling and potentially other styles as
well.

Changes since v1:
Commit message was updated - less explicit was changed to more explicit, since
it did list things explicitly instead of relying on the term "traditional
desktop" which is arguably more explicit.

<description summary="create desktop-style surfaces">
- xdg_wm_base allows clients to turn a wl_surface into a "real window"
- which can be dragged, resized, stacked, and moved around by the
- user. Everything about this interface is suited towards traditional
- desktop environments.
+ The xdg_wm_base interface is exposed as a global object enabling clients
+ to turn their wl_surfaces into windows in a desktop environment. It
+ defines the basic functionality needed for clients and the compositor to
+ create windows that can be dragged, resized, maximized, etc, as well as
+ creating transient windows such as popup menus.
