bug#36089: 26.2; Emacs window creation with multiple frames

[André Marçais]

When I go to compile a program using M-x compile it shows the
*compilation* buffer in a new window in the active frame, which is
intuitive when there is only one frame open. However, in Emacs I often
have multiple frames open and visible (like with a multi monitor
setup). In this case Emacs still opens the *compilation* buffer in the
active frame even if the buffer is visible in another frame.
