beginModal regression from Main.currentTime (110ef17e2d7fd6)

So, apparently we were sometimes passing CurrentTime due to the way Alt-f2 is signaled out of a special event handler from mutter, and not actually out of KeyPress directly. This often causes Alt-f2 etc. to break. Owen suggests taking over the keybinding (and dropping the evil X event filtering in gnome-shell-plugin.c)
Created attachment 143959 [details] [review] Use shellwm.takeover_keybinding for Alt-F1 and Alt-F2 This fixes a regression where we weren't using the correct event timestamps, because for both of these we were sending an XClientMessage to ourself.
