Ben Wiederhake cf586311a6 WindowServer: Split double-duty Window::normalize_rect()
This commit:
- merges the two(!) places that defined independently the minimum size of a window.
- splits Window::normalize_rect(), which was originally just a function to apply
  the minimum size requirement, and has taken on the additional job of nudging
  windows back onto the desktop.

This inadvertantly fixes a crash that happens when a malicious program creates a
window of size (0, 0). Now, a window at [0,0 50x50] is created instead.

SerenityOS

Graphical Unix-like operating system for x86 computers.

Build status Fuzzing Status

About

SerenityOS is a love letter to '90s user interfaces with a custom Unix-like core. It flatters with sincerity by stealing beautiful ideas from various other systems.

Roughly speaking, the goal is a marriage between the aesthetic of late-1990s productivity software and the power-user accessibility of late-2000s *nix. This is a system by us, for us, based on the things we like.

I (Andreas) regularly post raw hacking sessions and demos on my YouTube channel.

Sometimes I write about the system on my github.io blog.

I'm also on Patreon and GitHub Sponsors if you would like to show some support that way.
