compute_expand

Computes whether a container should give this widget extra space when possible.

Containers should check this, rather than looking at get_hexpand or get_vexpand.

This function already checks whether the widget is visible, so visibility does not need to be checked separately. Non-visible widgets are not expanded.

The computed expand value uses either the expand setting explicitly set on the widget itself, or, if none has been explicitly set, the widget may expand if some of its children do.

Parameters:

this	the widget
orientation	expand direction

Returns:

whether widget tree rooted here should be expanded
