Window actors call update_stage_views() without allocation after non-interactive resize on X11

Affected version

GNOME Shell 43.1 on Manjaro Linux (X11)

Bug summary

After upgrading to GNOME 43.1 the other night, Pop! Shell no longer works as expected, and windows render incorrectly in various ways (see screenshots below for examples). Minimising windows causes an image of the minimised window to remain overlaid on top of the window now taking up the full screen. This seems to not be exclusive to Pop! Shell, but also appears to happen when using other window tiling extensions such as Material Shell and Forge. An issue was opened on the Pop! Shell github repository, where it was recommended that the issue be taken here instead. Other problems noted in the linked thread include scroll bars not working properly, and instead freezing the contents of the window until the bar is released.

Steps to reproduce

Run GNOME Shell 43.1
Activate window tiling extension such as Pop! Shell, Material Shell, or Forge.
Manipulate tiled windows (opening, closing, minimising, maximising, etc.)

Relevant logs, screenshots, screencasts etc.

In this first image, I had the terminal fullscreened on one monitor with the Extensions window floating over it, and this is the result when I activated Pop! Shell:

I also opened the screenshot in Krita to save it, with a Firefox window open to the left (each window tiled to take half the screen). Minimising the Krita window had the following result: (Other tabs pixelised by me, so not part of the issue)

After running the following command, I opened Extensions, activated Pop! Shell, and minimised one of my two Firefox windows. The results were essentially the same as pictured above. I then deactivated Pop! Shell before terminating the command.
