Subject: bug#34680: Display monitor frames not warmed up

It also fixes the issue when using any of the following
‘redisplay’, ‘redraw-display’, ‘redraw-frame’, or just
‘display-monitor-attributes-list’ before calling
‘frame-monitor-attributes’ for the first time.

Just calling ‘display-monitor-attributes-list’ somehow “registers” the
frame in the list of frames, so the next call of ‘display-monitor-attributes-list’
returns the attribute ‘frames’ containing the frame.

This is not a real patch, it only demonstrates what changes
can fix this issue:
