> * New feature: Split application into core library (shared library
>   called libxfdashboard) and simple application (xfdashboard) which
>   makes use of core library. This new library makes objects reusable,
>   e.g. plugins, and functions reusable, e.g. in settings application.
>   Now header files and a shared library will be installed
>   additionally.
> * New feature: A new plugin and the first "other" plugin (it is
>   neither a plugin providing a new view nor one providing a new
>   search provider) called 'hot corner' was implemented. It adds
>   the function to activate or suspend xfdashboard when the pointer
>   is moved to a configured corner on primary monitor. Therefore
>   xfdashboard must run in daemonized mode.
> * New feature: Add configuration button in settings application
>   and make the plugins 'clock-view' and 'hot-corner' configurable.
> * Fixed a bug at the layout manager's allocation function of
>   object class XfdashboardDynamicTableLayout which set the
>   allocation on container within the layout manager's allocation
>   function and calls itself recursively and infinitely.
> * Fixed the calculation of number of columns and rows and also
>   the largest width and/or height of all children in object class
>   XfdashboardDynamicTableLayout to prevent recursive and infinite
>   calls to the same function. Also fixed number of columns or rows
>   when we need to reduce them to fit into allocation. (GH #111)
> * Fixed visual distorsion when allocation of a view or its
>   scrollbar ranges might have changed. (GH #112)
> * Fixed actors of applications view filling whole horizontal space
> * Implement file monitor to Gnome-Shell search provider plugin
>   to get notified about new, modified or removed providers
>   during run-time.
> * Changed API of object class XfdashboardApplication to match and
>   unify it with other single instance APIs
> * Keep order of search providers at search view in order as they
>   were registered to have a constant order
> * Add missing public functions to check if a window is maximized
>   or fullscreen
> * Add CSS class '.window-state-maximized' to actors of type
>   XfdashboardLiveWindow when the associated window is maximized.
>   That's just a new class added to the already present CSS classes
>   '.window-state-pinned', '.window-state-minimized' and
>   '.window-state-urgent'.
> * Some more bug-fixes, typos fixed etc.
