[virt-tools-list] [PATCH virt-viewer] Fullscreen displays on wrong monitors in Wayland

In fullscreen mode, we attempt to enable a guest display for each client
monitor and then place a fullscreen window for each display on the
appropriate monitor. Previously, we were using gtk_window_move() to move
the window to the proper monitor, and then calling
gtk_window_fullscreen() to enter fullscreen mode on that monitor.
However, under wayland, gtk_window_move() no longer has any effect for
toplevel windows, so all displays were showing up on top of eachother on
the same client monitor.

Fortunately, Gtk+ 3.18 added a new gtk_window_fullscreen_on_monitor()
API that works on Wayland. In theory this allows us to remove the call
to gtk_window_move() from the code. But to avoid potentially changing
behavior on xorg or older systems, I left the existing logic.

This requires a dependency bump for gtk+ from 3.12 to 3.18. Gtk 3.18 is
provided by the following distributions (or newer):
 - RHEL 7.4
 - Fedora 23
 - Ubuntu 16.04LTS
