spice-gtk doesn't need alignment widget. It already draws black
borders. Gerd originally wrote the code this way. I don't know why,
but it works. If we have enough reason to change this behaviour, I am
ok dropping that code.

Regarding resizing, spice will resize the guest desktop to fit in the
the client window.

I discussed with the team about adding scaling functionality as well,
to match with gtk-vnc behavior, but they all seemed to tell me it was
non-sense, since it can just resize the desktop instead. I still find
that scaling could be useful in some 'weird' cases, but I don't think
we can combine both behaviors. Thus, I prefer to keep guest desktop
resizing.
