- Support the XWayland `_NET_WM_ICON` property @Consolatis @tokyo4j [#2840]

(middle-click to scroll up/down) in Chromium and electron based clients
without inadvertantly pasting the primary clipboard. @johanmalm [#2832]

### Fixed
- Destroy xdg-shell popups when their parent is destroyed to fix potential
compositor crash. @Consolatis [#2846]
- Clear SSD hover effects after touch-up @jp7677 [#2837]
- Close compositor menus on first touch up/down event to prevent menus from
staying open during touch interactions in native touch mode. @jp7677 [#2827]
- Omit pointer cursor shape for tablet tools to prevent a resize cursor for
out-of-surface scrolling with a tablet tool in recent GTK4 (which uses the
cursor shape protocol). @jp7677 [#2808]
- For XWayland, give focus to a modal dialog rather than its parent.

### Changed
- Use the `Super` modifier instead of `Alt` for the default mousebinds `A-Left`
and `A-Right` (for move and resize) to avoid interfering with some clients
like CAD programs and games @johanmalm [#2831]
- Deprecate the default keybinds listed below. @johanmalm [#2831]
- `A-F3` for bemenu-run because it is too close to A-F4 and it is better to be
agnostic on choice of launcher.
- `A-<arrow>` for `MoveToEdge` because `Alt-` keybinds should be for clients
to use and this one results in frequent user complaints because it prevents
some common usage patterns like alt-left/right in web browers.
- Change default titlebar menu button from a dot to an arrow @johanmalm [#2844]
- "Sticky" mode for drag-locking is enabled by default as recommended by
libinput [#2803]. The timeout based behavior can be restored via the snippet
below. To disable the feature all together use `no` as the value.
