Prevent the WM from resizing large windows

Actually, Zhiyi Zhang had this interesting idea to set the size hints for such
large windows to disallow the WM from resizing them. This actually seems to
work, here's an attached diff.

There's only one problem though: this probably means that the user won't be
able to resize the window, though I haven't tested it, by e.g. dragging the
border (MWM_FUNC_RESIZE is still set though). I don't think there's a way
around it, and it's unlikely for someone to care about it if the window is so
large to begin with. This is simply due to difference between Windows and X11
here. Windows doesn't touch large windows (that go beyond the work area), while
WMs do without this hint.

I don't know if it's suitable for upstream but at least it's much nicer than
other hacks. I'll try to write some tests first so, if it does get accepted, it
won't regress.
