  to another workspace

Bug description:
  [Impact]

  If I plug in external monitor, move a window to it, maximize window and 
remove external monitor, window is moved to the same workspace primary screen - 
this is correct behavior, but when I un-maximize it - window moves to different 
workspace. This most likely is because original window positions are not 
updated after removing the monitor and un-maximize still uses those old values 
to move the window to supposedly original position.
  Another use case is when window movement is somewhat wrong - external monitor 
plugged in, window is maximized on primary screen, move focus to different 
workspace, unplug the monitor, move back to the workspace when we have 
fullscreen window, unmaximize it - window un-maximizes not to original 
position, it's moved away by the same mount of pixels as external monitor width 
is.

  I expect that window stays on the same workspace - once it's on it it
  should not move unless I do that manually, also I expect that un-
  maximizing moves window to original position, not different.

  This is continuation of bug
  https://bugs.launchpad.net/compiz/+bug/763148, fullscreen window bug
  was separated as per "Christopher Townsend (townsend) wrote on
  2013-04-18".

  P.S. Most likely bug can be fixed quite easy as behavior is similar to
  bug I mentioned, hopefully this can be included in the same SRU.

  thanks in advance

  [Test Case]

  ** Test Case 1

  1. plug in external monitor and move a windows to it
  2. maximize window
  3. unplug external monitor
  4. window moves to the primary display of the same workspace (this is correct)
  5. un-maximize window
  6. window un-maximizes to a different workspace (this is incorrect)

  ** Test Case 2

  1. plug in external monitor
  2. maximize window on primary (laptop display)
  3. change to a different workspace
  4. unplug external monitor
  5. return to workspace with maximized window
  6. un-maximize window
  7. window un-maximizes to wrong position. instead of the original position it 
is shifted over by the same number of pixels as the width of the external 
monitor (also incorrect)
