LibGUI+WindowServer: Mark minimized window backing stores as volatile

Browse source 
WindowServer will now send out a WindowStateChanged message to clients
when one of their windows is minimized.

This is then forwarded to the GWindow, which will try to mark its
underlying window backing store as volatile.

This allows the kernel to steal the memory used by minimized windows
in case it starts running low. Very cool! :^)
