Ryan Dwyer c3ef36d6b5 Simplify transactions
Commit 4b8e3a885b makes it so only one
transaction is committed (ie. configures sent) at a time. This commit
removes the now-unnecessary code which was used to support concurrent
committed transactions.

* Instead of containers storing a list of instructions which they've
been sent, it now stores a single instruction.
* Containers now have an ntxnrefs property. Previously we knew how many
references there were by the length of the instruction list.
* Instructions no longer need a ready property. It was used to avoid
marking an instruction ready twice when they were in a list, but this is
now avoided because there is only one instruction and we nullify the
container->instruction pointer when it's ready.
* When a transaction applies, we no longer need to consider releasing
and resaving the surface, as we know there are no other committed
transactions.
* transaction_notify_view_ready has been renamed to
view_notify_view_ready_by_serial to make it consistent with
transaction_notify_view_ready_by_size.
* Out-of-memory checks have been added when creating transactions and
instructions.

* Committing a transaction makes sway notify of all the affected clients with
* their new sizes. We then wait for all the views to respond with their new
* surface sizes. When all are ready, or when a timeout has passed, we apply the
* updates all at the same time.
*
* When we want to make adjustments to the layout, we change the pending state
* in containers, mark them as dirty and call transaction_commit_dirty(). This
* create and commits a transaction from the dirty containers.
