Falled desktop redraw in GTK 3.21.3

[lukefromdc]

Beginning with the various GdkDrawingContext changes to GTK during the 3.21.2 cycle, the desktop background in Caja has become "persistant" with a failure to redraw and "erase" when any icon is moved. In addition, all icon and text shadows are rendered at 100% opacity. The offending GTK 3 commit is
https://git.gnome.org/browse/gtk+/commit/?id=2c7b21718f18ab743cd79784ae28cad582f58503
"Simplify the widget rendering entry point"
lots of internal changes in gtkwidget internal cairo interaction

This also affects Caja
mate-desktop/caja#575
Only Nautilus is not affected by this, in fact an instance of the new split-out nautilus-desktop is a workaround for this.

are the same issue.
#1235
and
#1232
were both submitted over it, with
#1235
probably being the better of the two.
