/**
 * Transactions enable us to perform atomic layout updates.

 * A transaction contains a list of containers and their new state.
 * A state might contain a new size, or new border settings, or new parent/child
 * relationships.
 *
 * Committing a transaction makes sway notify of all the affected clients with
 * their new sizes. We then wait for all the views to respond with their new
 * surface sizes. When all are ready, or when a timeout has passed, we apply the
 * updates all at the same time.
 *
 * When we want to make adjustments to the layout, we change the pending state
 * in containers, mark them as dirty and call transaction_commit_dirty(). This
 * create and commits a transaction from the dirty containers.
