IconGridLayout is a new layout manager that aims to replace the
current paginated layout algorithm implemented by the icon grid.
There are a few outstanding aspects of this new layout manager
that are worth highlighting. IconGridLayout implements all the
mechanisms necessary for a paginated icon grid, but doesn't
implement any policies around it. The reason behind this decision
is that this layout manager will be used by other places (e.g.
the login dialog) that demand different policies to how the
grid should look like.
Another important aspect of this grid is that it does not queue
any relayouts when changing its properties. If a relayout is
required, the actor should manually queue it. This is necessary
to avoid layout loops.
Add the IconGridLayout class. Next commits will do the surgery
to IconGrid and any related code to use this new layout manager.

windowManager: Use new mutter API to freeze window actors ourself
We're currently using the hack of telling mutter that our effect is
completed (even though it isn't) in order to unfreeze updates of the
window actor.
This causes a bug with detecting the wl_outputs a window is
visible on, because the MetaWindowActor emits its "effects-completed"
signal too early, making Mutter update the wl_outputs while we're doing
the animation.
Now since meta_wayland_actor_surface_is_on_logical_monitor() uses the
transformed position and size of the MetaSurfaceActor and is being
called right after we setup the animation (but before it actually
starts, that happens at the next paint cycle) it will use a "very wrong"
rectangle: The transformation has been set to move the actor back to its
old position, and while we did already unfreeze updates and called
clutter_actor_set_position() in meta_window_actor_sync_actor_geometry(),
the actual allocation is not updated yet; this makes
clutter_actor_get_transformed_position() return a position including in
the new transformation, but not including the new allocation, and the
rectangle ends up being moved to the next monitor or completely out of
the stage.
To fix this issue properly, we need to decouple unfreezing actor updates
from emitting the "effects-completed" signal, which is now possible with
the new meta_window_actor_freeze() and meta_window_actor_thaw() APIs. So
use those new methods to freeze and thaw actor updates ourselves and
make sure to call shellwm.completed_size_change() only after the
animation has finished.

workspacesView: Only animate on show() when geometries are already set
Animating the window clones of the overview requires the fullGeometry
and the actualGeometry to be set, which they won't be when showing the
overview for the first time. So don't even try to animate the window
clones in that case because the geometries will still be null and
accessing them in workspace.js will throw errors.
The workspace views will still get the correct layout as soon as the
allocations happen because syncing the geometries will trigger updating
the window positions. Since animations are disabled for position changes
when syncing the geometry though, we won't get an animation and the
clones will jump into place. That's not a regression though since before
this change we also didn't animate in that case because the geometries
used were simply wrong (the actualGeometry was 0-sized as explained in
the last commit).
If we wanted to fix the initial animation of the overview, we'd have to
always enable animations of the window clones when syncing geometries,
but that would break the animation of the workspace when hovering the
workspaceThumbnail slider, because right now those animations are "glued
together" using the actualGeometry, so they would get out of sync.
The reason there are no errors happening in workspace.js with the
existing code is that due to a bug in Clutter the fullGeometry of
WorkspacesDisplay gets set very early while mapping the WorkspacesViews
(because the overviews ControlsManager gets an allocation during the
resource scale calculation of a ClutterClone, see
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/-/merge_requests/1181), so it
won't be set to null anymore when calling
WorkspacesView.animateToOverview().

workspacesView: Avoid setting invalid geometries on views
The fullGeometry and the actualGeometry of the WorkspacesDisplay are set
from the allocation of the overviews ControlsManager and the
WorkspacesDisplay, that means they're only valid after those actors got
their allocations during Clutters allocation cycle.
Since WorkspacesDisplay._updateWorkspacesViews() is already called while
showing/mapping the WorkspacesDisplay, that allocation cycle didn't
happen yet and we end up either setting the geometries of the views to
null (in case of the fullGeometry) or to something wrong (a 0-sized
allocation in case of the actualGeometry).
So avoid setting invalid geometries on the views by initializing both
the fullGeometry and the actualGeometry to null, and then only updating
the geometries of the views after they're set to a correct value.
Note that this means we won't correctly animate the overview the first
time we open it since the animation depends on the geometries being set,
but is being started from show(), which means no allocations have
happened yet. In practice this introduces no regression though since
before this change we simply used incorrect geometries (see the 0-sized
allocation mentioned above) on the initial opening and the animation
didn't work either.
