Launcher - clicking on a App launcher icon incorrectly un-minimizes windows

[John Lea]

To reproduce:

1. Open three windows of the same app, say Chromium
2. Minimize two of those windows
3. Select the window of a different application, say Thunderbird
4. Click on the Chromium icon in the launcher.

What currently happens:
- The two minimized Chromium windows are restored (become un-minimized) and the previously open Chromium window is focused

What should happen:
- The previously open Chromium window should be brought into focus. The other two Chromium windows should remain minimized.

======================================

This bug would be an ideal bug for someone to get started hacking on Unity, here's some information:

 * Time to fix: 1h
 * Difficulty: bitesize
 * Implementation:

BamfLauncherIcon::Focus needs to be modified to ignore minimized windows on the current workspace unless every window on the current workspace is minimized.

 * Where to look: src/BamfLauncherIcon.cpp
