Expected Behavior

On Windows, setting backgroundThrottling: false on a BrowserWindow should cause throttling of things like requestAnimationFrame to not happen when the window is occluded, minimized, or hidden.

Actual Behavior

On Windows, setting backgroundThrottling: false on a BrowserWindow causes throttling of things like requestAnimationFrame to not happen when the window is occluded or minimized but not hidden. On MacOS (v11.5.2 Intel x64) disabling backgroundThrottling causes requestAnimatingFrames to continue to work for all 3 cases -- occluded, minmized, and hidden. This is the reason I think this might be a bug on Windows.

Additional Information

Steps for repro on gist:

1. Start gist in electron (fiddle), open dev console and pop it out -> observe the tick being logged twice per second as callbacks to requestAnimationFrame calls
2. Occlude the window, minimize the window, or click Hide for 5s -> observe the tick stops being logged in all 3 cases
3. Click Toggle background throttling button
4. Occlude or minimize the window -> observe the tick does not stop being logged
5. Click Hide for 5s -> On Windows, observe the tick stops being logged during the 5s the window is hidden, indicating the requestAnimationFrame callbacks are being blocked. On Mac, observe the tick continue to be logged indicating they are not.
