There were situations when the same notification popup could be be
inserted twice into the available popups list, breaking the positioning
as it would create more notifications than it was able to but they would
never get closed and would offset the whole stack.
One of such scenarios was when user manually closed the popup with the
close button. After it was hidden, the hiding timer still went on to
fire and close it again, causing the above.
Should be all fixed now.

This prevents some apps to spam lots of notifications when all it needs
is actually just one single notification.
Imagine you're switching songs in your playlist quickly and each song
change sends new notification, but when you get to the tenth song, you
still see the notification from the 3rd song (because timeouts) and you
don't really care about all those songs changes still in the queue as
you see it in the playlist anyway.
So this patch limits certain apps to have only one single notification
which is always updated. So far Clementine and Spotify is there.
Switching songs or changing playback status creates only one single
popup.
Additionally, the list gets added entries from a config file too.

Up to this patch there was a new Dialog created for each and every new
notification incoming. After the notification was timed out, it would
close and delete the Dialog, but somehow that didn't free all the memory
and over time plasma-shell could get huuuge mem usage.
Now the notifications reuse only 3 Dialogs the whole lifetime --> memory
does not skyrockets anymore.
Note that the original leak in Dialog might still be present, but
notifications do not expose it anymore.
