xfmpc GTK3

Hi André,

I got xfmpc to build with your patch and fixed all Gtk.Stock and 
Gtk.ImageMenuItem deprecations today. It'll continue to look into the 
rest of the deprecations but it'll take me some more time likely.

I looked into the progress bar thinness as well but I'm a bit stuck 
here. It seems that the thin line is the default style in GTK+3 and when 
I call set_show_text (true) on the bar, the text simply appears above 
the thin bar which doesn't look very nice either. Do you have any 
pointers on how I would go about styling the progress bar similar to how 
it looked with GTK+2?

Thanks,
Johannes
