Subject: [PATCH] Make gdk_window_flush public

We need to call this from Gtk+, and its concievable that some other
app doing weird stuff could have a use for it.

+/**
+ * gdk_window_flush:
+ * @window: a #GdkWindow
+ *
+ * Flush all outstanding cached operations on a window, leaving the
+ * window in a state which reflects all that has been drawn before.
+ *
+ * Gdk uses multiple kinds of caching to get better performance and
+ * nicer drawing. For instance, during exposes all paints to a window
+ * using double buffered rendering are keep on a pixmap until the last
+ * window has been exposed. It also delays window moves/scrolls until
+ * as long as possible until next update to avoid tearing when moving
+ * windows.
+ *
+ * Normally this should be completely invisible to applications, as
+ * we automatically flush the windows when required, but this might
+ * be needed if you for instance mix direct native drawing with
+ * gdk drawing. For Gtk widgets that don't use double buffering this
+ * will be called automatically before sending the expose event.
+ *
+ * Since: 2.18
