opening a popup window closes all other windows

[melodrom]

I noticed that everytime I call describe-function or describe-variable and the popwin window opens, it almost always closes all my other window splits that have been open at the moment. This means that all my windows, but the one ive called the popup window from, get closed. Same case with undo-tree.

For some reason this isnt something that really always happens, it happens about 95% of the time though, for the remaining 5% it just works fine and my window layout remains.

I found some issue around this, but I can't fix it.

If you split frame like this :

-----------------
|       |   B   |
|   A   |-------|
|       |   C   |
-----------------

The function popwin:window-config-tree does not return correct value.
It should includes 3 windows configuration, but it returns only 1 window configuration.

There seems to be no problem when there are multiple splits only in the horizontal direction or only in the vertical direction.

However, when splits in the horizontal and vertical directions are mixed, it appears to cause issues.

Oh, maybe you can fix it by revert this commit. but I can't judge whether it is applicable for all user.
