[Bug 337851] [NEW] feature freeze exception for protobuf support

[Michael Vogt]

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: compiz

The latest git version of libcompiconfig (to be released as 0.8.0 soon according to upstream)
 has optional support for the libprotobuf library. This allows caching
of the xml metadata for faster startup. It also means a new dependency against libprotobuf3. There is 
a pre-approved MIR for this already (https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MainInclusionReportProtobuf).

It requires also a updates to python-compizconfig  (universe).

The settings for compiz and compiz-fusion-plugins-main needs to be adjusted because the old
way of having one global.xml configuration in libcompizconfig is no longer supported with the updated
version. All changes are prepared and tested in the compiz PPA.

Thanks,
 Michael
