[Remmina-common] Removal of GTK2 and "Minimize to tray" support

[Giovanni Panozzo]

Hi to all.

As you have noticed we started to patch Remmina again.

Due to lack of programmers time, we would like to remove the following
features from Remmina:

a) GTK2 support. All the GTK2 code will be removed.

b) Minimize to tray: currently there is too much work to do to put back
in shape the "minimize to tray" option. It needs many workarounds for
different window managers and a lot of testing.
So we are going to remove the option "minimize to tray" from the Applet
configuration.

Please feel free to post your opinion here. It's very important for us
to know how essential are these features for you.

If we don't receive any comment in the next days, we will remove these
features.

I am fine with these changes. I am a long time Remmina user who
abandoned it because it just doesn't do copy/paste properly. I switched
to a lot of kludgey Xvreerdp scripts instead. It would be nice to have
Remmina back.

Clipboard support has been extensively improved in the last days/weeks
(thanks Giovanni), we would love if you could test it (Remmina gtk3 branch).

Even sound and drive share support is working now!!!

I built the latest dev code. Copy paste works, but when connected to a
linux system running xrdp it hangs and terminates quite regularly. The
rpm distributed xfreerdp client does not. Lots to work on I suppose :)
