message WindowInfo
Control plane
message WindowInfoOne window, as a dock or a task list has to see it.
What a shell needs, which is narrower than what a window is: enough to draw an entry, group entries by application, and say which one to bring forward. Position is omitted on purpose — a dock that knew where windows were would be tempted to move them, and moving windows is the compositor's job. Size is here only so a switcher card can keep the window's aspect without a pixel round trip.

Fields
appId: stringWhat the application calls itself: an xdg-shell app_id for a Wayland
client, and whatever a lava client passed to CreateSurface otherwise.
Empty when nobody said, which a shell should read as "no icon for this",
not as "no application".
The identity a desktop file is found by, and therefore the identity an icon is found by. Two windows of one application share it, which is what lets a dock show one entry with two windows behind it.
