Having many tray icons from one AppVM, only one is reacting to mouse events

When you start several applications docking a tray icon in one VM, only the last one is receiving mouse events of all tray icons in this domain.

Ie. having tray icon A B and C, all icons have the hint of icon C and clicking on any icon shows context menu of icon C.

Tray icon/window don't get any notification when a) systray was moved b) icon in tray was moved.
This bug was only when new icon got the same place as previous (but previous hasn't get notified about move), so was overlapped. Tray icon, embedded into root-window, didn't get any raise event, so there was in order that was created, and mouse events went to the top one.

I haven't found any way to get noticed when icon was moved, so I implemented some workaround: check icon position on mouse enter/leave and send corresponding event to VM.

Some problem not solved here: position of notifications from icons. After icon move, notification will be displayed near previous position of the icon. This will be fixed after mouse move over the icon.
