Window Manager Basics, Work in Progress

* Adds Window Manager support to the Supervisor, so that Window widgets
  can be dragged by their title bar, clicked to focus, etc.
* Create a ui.Window as normal, but instead of Packing or Placing it
  into a parent container as before, you call .Supervise() and give it
  your Supervisor. The window registers itself to be managed and drawn
  by the Supervisor itself.
* Supervisor manages the focused window order using a doubly linked
  list. When a window takes focus it moves to the top of the list.
  Widgets in the active window take event priority.
* Extended DragDrop API to support holding a widget pointer in the drag
  operation.
* Changed widget event Handle functions to return an error: so that they
  could return ErrStopPropagation to prevent events going to more
  widgets once handled (for important events).

Some bugs remain around overlapping windows and event propagation.
