The removed gtk_widget_set_uposition() docs mention that it is not
useful for a widget that is inside a container, however the variables
are used in the default allocator: gtk_widget_real_size_allocate().

For GtkWindows we already have gtk_window_move(), and imo the fact
that the rarely used default allocator accesses these is some kind
of hack that I would like to see disappear.

So yes... lets kill x_set/y_set/x/y on the AuxInfo (now that you
cannot set them from any public API... theres no excuse afaics to 
keep them around).

While looking at the mentioned commit that removes set_uposition() I
find that we have _gtk_window_reposition() which does nothing except
call the public API gtk_window_move()... it would be nice to hunt down
and remove instances of these useless private functions as well...
