Subject: Add a client flag 'active-pane' which stores the active pane in the
 client and allows it to be changed independently from the real active pane
 stored in the window. This is can be used with session groups which allow an
 independent current window (although it would be nice to have a flag for this
 too and remove session groups). The client active pane is only really useful
 interactively, many things (hooks, window-style, zooming) still use the
 window active pane.
