require GTK+ >= 3.14, drop GTK+2 code and --with-gtk build option

And now we move m-n-d to GTK+3:

• minimum GTK+ version is set to 3.14
• GTK+2 code and deprecated GTK+3 code are dropped
• --with-gtk build option is dropped as well
• build-deps on GTK+, wnck and canberra dev packages are changed (that's what you need to do in your distros)

For example, in Debian/Ubuntu build-deps are changed as follows:
libcanberra-gtk-dev -> libcanberra-gtk3-dev
libgtk2.0-dev -> libgtk-3-dev
libwnck-dev -> libwnck-3-dev

Also please note that slider theme doesn't use reversed colors from GTK+ theme anymore. It uses your fg/bg as is. I understand it might be a surprise for some users, but we couldn't manage to get the color reversing to work with all GTK+ 3.xx versions out there. And honestly... did this reversing make sense really? 😄

Looks like people thinks this is a voting 😄
...i think @monsta wants that people test the commit.
...building.......installation.......runtime 😉

It's also a notification for distro maintainers so they won't get a surprise when 1.16 is released 😄

Works fine over here

We still need to fix #98 before 1.16 release, so if anyone of you guys can help with that, please comment there.

Fixing that would require a full-on cairo copy of the background and cairo
draw of the window over it, I don't know how to do that.

By any chance, maybe some app already has this implemented?
