Fix active-monitor notification positioning on Wayland

Brian Tarricone requested to merge kelnos/xfce4-notifyd:wayland-active-monitor-positioning into master

On Wayland, we can't get the absolute location of the pointer, or even know which monitor the pointer is on. Sigh.

Instead, we can create the window with no set monitor, set it's opacity to fully transparent, map the window, and hope that the compositor's policy is to place layer-shell windows with no output set on the active monitor. Then we can see what monitor the window is on, move it to the appropriate place, and set the opacity back to normal.

Closes #125 (closed).
