Reason: Because a normal window can have a parent window as well, like a Dialog
Reason: otherwise the child surface is anchored to the center
Reason: otherwise the height of the client side decoration is not considered and therefore the location is shifted
Reason: There are multiple pointers to the smithay popup. Once in state.windows and one time in the popup object it self. Just dropping the popup object releases only one pointer but we have to notify the state to release also the other
…he position Reason: Much easier in the resize handle
Reason: we have to call resize to initialize the viewport to map to correct window size

Implement proper decorationless popups by specifying the type of the child window with
with_type()With this PR different kind of child windows can be created
The type can be specified during creation of the Window using the window_attributes and the
with_type()function. As default a normal Window is used. IfPopupis choosen a parent must be specified, otherwise the Popup creation fails with an Error returned by thenew()function.Related issues: #403 and #4256
