Some plugin UIs, particularly those that cannot be resized
unset `autoresizesSubviews`. Since the plugin-view is re-parented,
the host has to directly set the view's size.
However some plugins have multiple child views, apparently
for off-screen pixmaps (e.g. UAD plugins). Those additional
should not be resized (or re-stacked).
e.g.
Reason-Rack
view 0x7fe27e44e570 @ 0, 33 834 x 804
view 0x7fe288aa3770 @ 278, 268 278 x 268
UAD Tube-tech
view 0x7fe270a9cbf0 @ 0, 33 1160 x 374
view 0x7fe28883d030 @ 0, 0 1160 x 374
view 0x7fe2888546e0 @ 0, 0 1160 x 24

Some fixed size AU, do unset `autoresizesSubviews` (Apple's default
is enabled). This also results in the initial size, and position
below Ardour's toolbar to be set incorrectly.
This fixes e.g. Reason Rack Plug AU (and maybe others).

git history begins in 2005. So (C) from 1998..2005 is lost. Also some
(C) assignment of commits where the committer didn't use --author.
The platform has no support for libdispatch which is handy when setting up an objective C block,
and also has no Retina, which means it doesn't suffer the problem this code is intended to fix
This commit swizzles (replaces) NSView::displayIfNeeded to allow us to stop redraws of plugin
windows if the Glib idle timer fires less often then every 40msec. The next 10 plugin redraws
(for all plugin windows combined) will be skipped. Heuristics will likely need some adjustments
Tested on Apple Multiban Comp, Apple Dynamics Proc, AU Sampler, Zebra2 and Zebralette.
Still have a 1-2 pixel white border at lower and right edge after window is dragged larger.
Also, debug output.
looks like not all AU plugin GUIs redraw themselves if
[win setAutodisplay:1] is unnot.
A user reported that some Waves plugins and Shattered Glass 32bit AUs
are blank in 4.4 on 32bit OSX.
see also 5eefdf7 and earlier AU/API changes.
When the GUI is opened the first time all is fine, focus is on the
embedded widget. However once a user presses one of the preset buttons
(Add, Save,...) there is no possibility to return focus to the
embedded widget. Ardour always 'sees' it as focus=GtkButton and passes
the event to the editor.
I'm not sure if this will be right everywhere, but it's perfectly centered for
me and corresponds to the spacing/padding that's present, so it seems right.
