show attention from other desktop/viewport

Window buttons should show attention from other desktop/viewport
even if configured not to show all desktop/viewport.

It would also be nice to use bold font (like gnome or window menu)
for attention window.

The bug was submitted at debian as #699725

I attached a patch to implement:

* show attention from other viewport/workspace
* use bold font when window demands attention
* show attention even on active window

The last one is normally not useful, but I found one particular use when
ssh to compile in another tab, using these script, I can force attention:

# turn on with WINDOWID
xprop -id NNNN -f _NET_WM_STATE 32a -set _NET_WM_STATE _NET_WM_STATE_DEMANDS_ATTENTION
# turn off with WINDOWID or just minimize and restore
xprop -id NNNN -f _NET_WM_STATE 32a -set _NET_WM_STATE ""
