https://github.com/xmonad/xmonad-contrib/pull/192 introduced a breaking change: * `XMonad.Hooks.EwmhDesktops`   `ewmh` function will use `logHook` for handling activated window. And now  by default window activation will do nothing. This breaking change can be avoided if we designed that a bit differently. #192 changed `ewmhDesktopsEventHook` to invoke `logHook` instead of focusing the window that requested activation and now `logHook` is supposed to invoke a `ManageHook` through `activateLogHook` which consults a global `NetActivated` extensible state to tell if it's being invoked from `ewmhDesktopsEventHook`. This seems convoluted to me. A better design, in my opinion, is to invoke the `ManageHook` directly from `ewmhDesktopsEventHook`, and we just need a way to configure the hook. Luckily, we now have `X.U.ExtensibleConf` which makes this straightforward. So we now have a `setEwmhActivateHook`, and the activation hook defaults to focusing the window, undoing the breaking change.
