Summary: Removing support for _NET_WORKAERA.

Initial Comment:
This patch remove support for _NET_WORKAERA. Although it is part of the ewmh standard, this hint is incompatible with dual heads (because it assume that the net work aera is rectangular, which is not the case). This cause problems with QT4 apps not displaying menus on the second screen. It is the equivalent of this corresponding patch for awesome, that have been accepted, see: https://awesome.naquadah.org/bugs/index.php?do=details&task_id=732#comment1756

Message:
Removing _NET_WORKAREA is a very bad idea. A better approach would be to
make it configurable. I created a patch for that (
http://pastebin.com/hvztwLhJ ).

# NET_WORKAREA behaviour: 0 (single/multimonitor with STRUT information,
like metacity), 1 (always full desktop), 2 (singlemonitor with STRUT,
multimonitor without STRUT)
# NetWorkAreaBehaviour=0

Best regards

Arghh, some pastebin problems. This website has removed then last required
end of line character and had mixed up DOS and Unix newline. But at least
as you see it works.
