Derivatives of Core::Object should be constructed through
ClassName::construct(), to avoid handling ref-counted objects with
refcount zero. Fixing the visibility means that misuses like this are
more difficult.
This also adds the ability to query how many virtual desktops are
set up, and for the Taskbar to be notified when the active virtual
desktop has changed.
To make Assistant useful we need a way to quickly trigger it. I've
added a new specialized event coming from the window server for when a
user is holding down 'Super' and hits 'Space'.
The Taskbar will be able to listen for this event and spawn a new
instance of the Assistant if it's not already running.
This sets the stage so that DisplaySettings can configure the screen
layout and set various screen resolutions in one go. It also allows
for an easy "atomic" revert of the previous settings.

This commit adds an event called WM_SuperKeyPressed which is sent to all
windows via WindowManagerServerConnection.
The event is fired from WindowManager when the super key is pressed,
which is the windows key on most keyboards :)
With this patch the window manager related functionality is split out
onto a new endpoint pair named WindowManagerServer/Client. This allows
window manager functionality to be potentially privilege separated in
the future. To this end, a new client named WMConnectionClient
is used to maintain a window manager connection. When a process
connects to the endpoint and greets the WindowServer as a window manager
(via Window::make_window_manager(int)), they're subscribed to the events
they requested via the WM event mask.
This patch also removes the hardcoding of the Taskbar WindowType to
receive WM events automatically. However, being a window manager still
requires having an active window, at the moment.
