SUMMARY

Middle clicking on a window closes it in `present windows` and `overview`, while it copies it to all VD in the `grid` effect.
It would be convenient if the shortcuts were unified and both features were easily accessible in all three effects.

effects/desktopgrid: Close windows on middle click

This makes it so that the windowview/overview/desktopgrid effects
all use the middle mouse button to close windows.

The previous behavior of pinning window is now assigned to the
right mouse button.
