I noticed that on my Linux system, the ALLEGRO_EVENT_DISPLAY_SWITCH_IN is only generated when clicking on a window, but not when alt-tabbing.

So:
Run a game window
Click outside the window
Click on the window again
-> ALLEGRO_EVENT_DISPLAY_SWITCH_IN is generated

Run a game window
Alt-tab to a different window
Alt-tab to the game window again
-> NO event generated

I would expect the behavior to be the same in both cases, as indeed it is on my Windows system.

I noticed this problem with Allegro 5.2.8.0 and Ubuntu 22.04.

Improve DISPLAY_SWITCH_IN/OUT events on Linux.

There were two issues.

- GNOME sends a different event type when alt-tabbing, at least on
Ubuntu 22.04. Adjusted the code to use this alternate event type.
- When GTK_TOPLEVEL flag is on, we were getting duplicate events with
Wayland. Adjusted the code to not listen to the duplicate events.

Fixes liballeg#1390, liballeg#1367
