    gui: Save positions of windows only when they are closed.
    
    When windows in the GUI are moved around the desktop or resized, the
    machine's disk can thrash madly in some setups.  This is because each
    change in a window's position or size triggers a write to the PSPPIRE
    preferences file noting the new position as a default for the next
    PSPPIRE run.  It wasn't always a problem, but newer Glib versions call
    fsync() from g_file_set_contents(), the function used to write the
    preferences file, which bypasses the OS cache and forces a synchronous
    disk write.
    
    This commit makes PSPPIRE update the preferences file only when a window
    is closed, which fixes the problem.  Avoiding g_file_set_contents() would
    be another reasonable solution.
