[Qemu-devel] [PULL 1/2] SDL: set a hint to not bypass the window compositor

[Gerd Hoffmann <kraxel@redhat.com>]

From: Sebastian Krzyszkowiak <dos@dosowisko.net>

Without that, window effects in KWin get suspended as soon as any
qemu-sdl window becomes visible. While the SDL default makes sense
for games, it's not really suitable for QEMU.
