Some APIs (notably the CLAP GUI API) only provide the parent window until after the window creation completes. However, turning the underlying window from non-parented to parented can cause issues on some platforms.
This PR adds the
WindowSettings::parentedoption, which instructsbaseviewto delay window creation until the firstset_parentcall, while still allowing to query and make changes to the window (which will be applied at window creation).
