  [Impact]
  Windows can not be moved above the top of screen because the coordinates system used is wrong.

  [Test Case]
  * Launch a non-CSD application, such as Firefox or Thunderbird;
  * Try Alt-dragging it above the top of the screen.

  [Regression Potential]
  The fix is changing the coordinates system to the right one and should not cause any regressions.

  -----------------------------------------------------------------------------

  After upgrading to 15.10, I can no longer Alt-drag Firefox and
  Thunderbird windows above the top of the screen.  When I attempt to do
  so, the window snaps downward along the y-axis so that the titlebar
  aligns with top of screen.  Other applications such as gnome-terminal
  do not seem to be affected.

  I ran git-bisect on metacity, and narrowed the regression down to this
  commit:
