[RFC PATCH 1/9] ui/gtk: skip drawing guest scanout when associated VC is invisible

[Dongwon Kim <dongwon.kim@intel.com>]

A new flag "visible" that specifies visibility status of the gfx console.
The polarity of the flag determines whether the drawing surface should
continuously updated upon scanout flush. The flag is set to 'true' when
the window bound to the VC is in visible state  but set to 'false' when
the window is inactivated or closed. When invisible, QEMU will skip any of
draw events.
