When the X11 server sends an expose event, that means that "this
rectangle here (the event contains x,y,width,height) has undefined
contents on your window; please redraw that". This means that we need a
swap. However, so far the code does not actually enforce that a swap
happens.
For example, start rootston, switch to another workspace and then switch
back. The rootston window will not be redrawn (before commit
52b058c2a3, it would just be fully white; after that commit it will
show whatever was visible on the old workspace). This is because the
drawing code concludes that nothing needs to be done. However, in fact a
swap is necessary.
This reverts commit e79d924588, because its optimisation is already
done now: wlr_output_update_needs_swap() emits a signal, which is
handled by wlr_output_damage with a call to wlr_output_schedule_frame().
This function does nothing if a frame is already pending. Thus, the
optimisation from commit e79d924588 now happens implicitly.
