How extensive the API changes are between libmutter-10 and libmutter-11?

Porting the elementary-greeter and gala packages from libmutter-9 to
libmutter-10 was comparatively easy (though with some loss of window
management functionality), but earlier ports were rather bad and took
a long time.

If it's an easy port, we'll probably not need another compat package,
but if it will take longer, then it's back to dealing with a compat
package. And I'd rather not do that again, because that means
backporting stuff from the 43.x branch to keep things working, i.e.
patches for compatibility with the latest gsettings-desktop-schemas,
or gnome-settings-daemon ...
