Bug description:
[ Impact ]
Non-standard windows of a non-rectangular shape end up with
rectangular shadows drawn behind them by Unity.
It is better to have no shadow at all for these windows rather than an
incorrect rectangular shadow.
[ Test Case ]
C code for a test case is attached to this bug. It needs to be
compiled and run to demonstrate the problem and solution.
[ Regression Potential ]
Any code change to the Unity desktop shell could introduce a new crash
or hang.
A possible regression in this particular fix is a lack of shadows when
expected, or a non-standard non-rectangular window still having a
shadow as before.
[ Additional Info ]
The Unity SRU fix for Ubuntu 14.04 LTS was cherry-picked from Ubuntu
14.10 where it has been in production use for some time without
regression.
