Xpra: Ticket #821: html5 client maximize does not follow browser canvas size

When a application is maximized in html5 client the application does not resize along with the browser canvas.

IE maximize midori in the html5 client and resize the browser window.

Also note that when the browser canvas has been resized the application even when minimize then re maximized does not conform to the correct size.

Test on windows in Chrome, Firefox.

Yes, the HTML5 client needs to implement sending screen size updates!

r9101 and r9103 implement the required functionality to send screen size updates.

I can see server acknowledge request with

2015-04-21 17:04:26,156 resolution not found for 1439x399
2015-04-21 17:04:26,156 received updated display dimensions
2015-04-21 17:04:26,156 client root window size is 1439x399 with 1 displays:
2015-04-21 17:04:26,156   'HTML' (381x106 mm - DPI: 95x95)
2015-04-21 17:04:26,156     Canvas

and any maximised windows on the page resize accordingly.

Found small issue , title bar is still active and allows you to drag window around inside html canvas , this is not desired behavior - title bar should be disabled from dragging.
