With Claws Mail's latest double release of 3.18.0 and 4.0.0, the package
will refer to the more "modern" GTK+ 3 release, major version four. The
GTK+ 2 release, major version 3, is now available in the
`claws-mail-gtk2` package.
In other words, this commit bumps the GTK+ 2 version from 3.17.8 to
3.18.0, the previously unstable GTK+ 3 version 3.99.0 to 4.0.0 and
changes the default to GTK+ 3.
This allows users of the bind module to specify an alternate BIND
package. For example, by overriding the source attribute to use a
different version of BIND.
Since the default value for `services.bind.package` is `pkgs.bind`,
this change is completely backwards compatible with the current
module.
This can be very useful when running the test headless or e.g. when
looking at Hydra logs. Especially the chrome://gpu content contains a
lot of interesting information.
I also decided to refactor the test_new_win() function to avoid
duplicate code and rely less on xdo.
Unfortunately there are some regressions in the GPU code that cause
Chromium and Google Chrome to crash, e.g.:

Hopefully this'll be fixed upstream before the final release (there are
bug reports for it) but for the meantime we have to launch the beta and
dev versions with "--use-gl=angle --use-angle=swiftshader".
New release, the main feature is updating to GTK4 and significant updates to the internal processing pipelines.
Many dependencies no longer seem to be required, I have manually checked that mentioned plugins are still available.
