Handle ResizeRequests for tray clients. (#2495)

Some tray clients such as VLC use override_redirect on their tray window. As per
specification this means i3bar won't receive a ConfigureRequest, but instead a
ResizeRequest will be triggered. If not selected, the X server will simply confirm
the request which leads to a broken tray window size.

This commit selects and handles the event just like a configure request is handled.

fixes #2494
