Bug Description

[Impact]
When Abmiance or Radiance is used as theme with Metacity on HiDPI screen unfocused window button background does not look good:

[Test Case]
* start Metacity as window manager
* set Ambiance or Radiance as metacity theme:
  gsettings set org.gnome.metacity theme Ambiance
* open multiple windows so at least one window is not focused

[Regression Potential]
Should not cause any regressions. Solid color image is replaced by same color rectangle.
