Title: Don't have Nemo draw the desktop background, make the desktop window transparent instead

Currently, nemo draws the desktop background over the existing background when it starts up. This is unnecessary, and it causes occasional X window errors/crashes (especially with the gnome transitioning wallpaper).

This makes the desktop window transparent instead, utilizing the already-rendered desktop to overlay the container on.
