Provide a generic method for system administrators and distributions
to handle renamed keys so that user settings will be transitioned to
the new key names and settings will not be lost.

Provide a file in DATADIR/compizconfig/transitions called your_item.transition
with the following format

oldPluginName oldSettingName newPluginName newSettingName
oldPluginName2 oldSettingName2 newPluginName2 newSettingName2

Keys will then be renamed appropriately.

Note that this requires backend support. If your backend does not support
reading from keys that don't have an installed schema, then those settings
will be erased as soon as the user upgrades since the schema data will be
lost. That includes GSettings at the moment.

Fix memory errors, explicitly set changes lists and fix a case where changing a temporary
active plugins setting during upgrades could cause the context's active plugins to be
changed.
