0.9.8.4 release from the 0.9.8 series released

Release information
Release notes:

Highlights

  * Fixed a few crashes affecting a lot of people. Especially users of VMs and
    LLVMpipe.
  * Significant improvements to "Unredirect Fullscreen Windows" mode, which
    is particularly useful for fullscreen gaming performance.
    - Flickering is mostly fixed.
    - Multi-monitor unredirect is dramatically faster than previous versions.
    - Fixed automatic redirect/unredirect entry/exit bugs.
    To try it out, enable: CCSM > Composite > Unredirect Fullscreen Windows.
    The option is not enabled by default yet because there are some issues
    with driver stability, particularly with nouveau and intel.
  * Major gsettings/compizconfig bug fixes and refactoring with lots more
    test cases.

Release information
Release notes:

Major New Features

  * Single source tree: All plugins/libraries are in lp:compiz now
  * OpenGL|ES support (e.g. for ARM platforms)
  * GSettings support, as a backend for storing compizconfig
  * Buffer swapping on every frame: allowing compiz to take advantage of
    driver features such as page flipping and triple/quad buffering. This
    results in noticeably higher physical frame rates, and smoother graphics.

Disabled Features

  In order to complete support for OpenGL|ES, some plugins were not (yet)
  ported and have been disabled for now. Those are: animationaddon, bicubic,
  blur, colorfilter, cubeaddon, gears, group, loginout, reflex, thumbnail,
  stackswitch, wallpaper, trip. However, those are only 13 out of 84 plugins.
  We welcome patches to revive the disabled plugins.

             turned on.

             plugin, option=normal

             full-screen redraws.
