Make it so that each logical monitor has a reference to all the
monitors that are assigned to it.
All monitors has a reference to each output that belongs to it.
Each output has a reference to any CRTC it has been assigned.

Some x86 clamshell design devices use portrait tablet LCD panels while
they should use a landscape panel, resoluting in a 90 degree rotated
picture.
Newer kernels detect this and rotate the fb console in software to
compensate. These kernels also export their knowledge of the LCD panel
orientation vs the casing in a "panel orientation" drm_connector property.
This commit adds support to mutter for reading the "panel orientation"
and transparently (from a mutter consumer's pov) fixing this by applying
a (hidden) rotation transform to compensate for the panel orientation.

Turn MetaCrtc into a GObject and move it to a separate file. This
changes the storage format, resulting in changing the API for accessing
MetaCrtcs from using an array, to using a GList.

Add meta_logical_monitor_foreach_crtc() helper to iterate over all the
active CRTCs driving the monitors associated with the specified logical
monitor.

The HW cursor plane can't do any transformations, and as we still don't
pre-transform any buffer before uploading to the cursor plane, we must
disable the HW cursor when a logical monitor is transformed.
This worked previously because the transform of a MetaCrtc did not
correspond to the transform of a CRTC, but the transform of the logical
monitor the CRTC was assigned to.

This commit makes it possible to configure logical monitor scale also
when running on top of an X11 server using Xrandr. An extra property
'requires-globla-scale' is added to the D-Bus API is added to instruct
a configuration application to only allow setting a global logical
monitor scale.
This is needed to let gsd-xsettings use the configured state to set a
XSettings state that respects the explicit monitor configuration.

Add support for rotated monitors. This is done per logical monitor, as
every monitor assigned to a logical monitor must be transformed in the
same way. This includes being transformed on the same level; e.g. if
the backend does not support transforming any monitor of a logical
monitor natively, then all monitors will be transformed using the
offscreen intermediate framebuffer.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=777732
Keep track of the logical monitor transform. When a logical monitor is
transformed, all of its monitors are also transformed in the same way.
A logical monitor can either be transformed on the CRTC level, or using
an offscreen intermediate buffer. In both cases will the logical
monitor be transformed, but only in the latter will the view be
transformed.
MetaCrtcs::transform currently does not represent whether the CRTC is
configured to be transformed or not; only when the backend can handle
it does it correctly correspond to the actual CRTC configuration. This
is intended to change with MetaMonitorConfigManager.

This commit adds support for rendering onto enlarged per logical
monitor framebuffers, using the scaled clutter stage views, for HiDPI
enabled logical monitors.
This works by scaling the mode of the monitors in a logical monitors by
the scale, no longer relying on scaling the window actors and window
geometry for making windows have the correct size on HiDPI monitors.
It is disabled by default, as in automatically created configurations
will still use the old mode. This is partly because Xwayland clients
will not yet work good enough to make it feasible.
To enable, add the 'scale-monitor-framebuffer' keyword to the
org.gnome.mutter.experimental-features gsettings array.
It is still possible to specify the mode via the new D-Bus API, which
has been adapted.
The adaptations to the D-Bus API means the caller need to be aware of
how to position logical monitors on the stage grid. This depends on the
'layout-mode' property that is used (see the DisplayConfig D-Bus
documentation).

Replace the 'scale' of an output with a vfunc on the MetaMonitorManager
class that takes a monitor and a monitor mode which calculates the
scale. On X11 this always returns 1, on KMS, the old formula is used.
On the dummy and test backends, the already configured values are
returned.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=777732
The default (calculated) scale is derived from the output, but
ultimately set via the monitor scale. This will enable config files to
override the scale. Yet to be done is handling when a scale is not
supported by a backend (i.e. the X11 backend).
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=777732
Split up logical monitor cration into derived (when derived from
current underlying configuration) and non-derived (when creating from a
logical monitor configuration). This avoids that type of logic in the
logical monitor creation function.

Add support for non-tiled monitor modes on tiled monitors. This is done
by adding all the other supported modes, except the modes with the
same resolution as the tile dimensions.

When adding a monitor and all its outputs, don't try to set the logical
monitor of the outputs CRTC if none was assigned. This might happen if
a tiled monitor only uses a subset of the connectors it are connected
via.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=779745
Operate on MetaMonitor's instead of MetaOutput's, as the latter may be
only a subset of an actual "monitor" when referring to the physical
computer equipment.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=777732
Don't try to mirror the physical dimension, since that's a property of
one of the monitors, not of the logical monitor. Callers are changed to
deal with choosing the monitor to represent the logical monitor.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=777732
Instead of using crtcs and outputs to generate logical monitors, use
the ready made monitor abstraction that hides irrelevant things such as
monitor tiling etc.
