Public bug reported:
when screenlets are used in conjunction with compiz's 'widget mode' they are
only mapped and visible when compiz is in widget mode
so it is unnecessary and produces higher power consumption on machines that
rely on battery to update the screenlets data
the patch included adds two new callback functions to a screenlet to notify
them of map and unmap events so that each individual screenlet can
disable/enable any polling in the corresponding functions
I already updated the SysmonitorScreenlet and the ClearCalendarScreenlet to
make use of this feature
