_NET_WM_STATE_FOCUSED is set on _NET_WM_STATE to indicate that the
window is focused. It must be set when the window is newly focused and
removed once the window no longer has focus.

For example, this is used by GTK applications to show the decoration in
an active or inactive state. This change can be tested by opening a GTK
application (like evince), focusing the window and unfocusing the
window, and observing a change in the window decorations.

When InputHint is not in WM_HINTS (i.e., the flag is not set), treat the window
as if the InputHint was set (the default behavior). This means that i3 will
focus the window when it becomes managed.

Since managing a window happens on a MapNotify (which is absent from this
list), the window cannot accept input focus, so we should not try to focus
the window at all.
Fixes an issue with xfce4-notifyd which (correctly) declines focus when
we send WM_TAKE_FOCUS, which puts i3 in a state where i3 focus and X
focus are different when a notification appears.
If input focus is set by the window manager, it is not necessary to send
WM_TAKE_FOCUS because it has already taken focus.

Both setting input focus and sending WM_TAKE_FOCUS is effectively
setting focus on the window twice which is certainly against the spirit
of the spec, if not the letter.
