Add shell_button_box_fake_release

The application menu code wants to do a popup after a given timeout
while holding.  We can implement that by adding a function to
manually break the grab held by the button box.

Freeze+thaw around the hover and pressed property notification on leave
since handlers may want to depend on the pressed state on a hover
transition.
