"Set" the wallpaper during startup only sometimes
Since commit 4f5e0e7, i3 would take a screenshot and set that as the
background pixmap of the root window during startup. This is the easy
part of setting a proper X11 wallpaper.
The code in question was added because something either set the
background pixmap of the root window to NONE or the X11 server was
started with "-background none". This is apparently done by default by
e.g. gdm to avoid some flickering while the X11 server starts up.
This commit makes this code conditional: Only when no wallpaper is
detected is a screenshot taken.
Since I could not find any way to query the background of a window, a
more direct approach is taken to detect this situation: First, we find
some part of the root window that is not currently covered. Then we open
a white window there, close it again and grab a screenshot. If a
wallpaper is set, the X11 server will draw this wallpaper after the
window is closed and something else will be visible in the screenshot.
However, the wallpaper could have a white pixel at the tested position.
Thus, this procedure is repeated with a black window.
Only when this procedure produces two different pixel values is a
screenshot taken and set as the wallpaper.
