It will be used to generate gamma look up tables depending on
temperature.
The temperature comes from org.gnome.SettingsDaemon.Color and
depends on the current night light state.

It uses the org.gnome.SettingsDaemon.Power.Screen D-Bus API. Currently
brightness set if the proxy is not ready are ignored; whether the
brightness value should be cached and set once it appears or whether
color profiles should be reapplied is yet to be decided.

Just as gsd-color does, generate color profiles. This can either be done
from EFI, if available and the color device is associated with a built
in panel, or from the EDID. If no source for a profile is found, none is
created.
The ICC profiles are also stored on disk so that they can be read by
e.g. colord. The on disk stored profiles will only be used for storing,
not reading the profiles, as the autogenerated ones will no matter what
always be loaded to verify the on disk profiles are up to date. If a on
disk profile is not, it will be replaced. This is so that fixes or
improvements to the profile generation will be made available despite
having run an older version earlier.
After generating, add some metadata about the generated file itself
needed by colord, i.e. file MD5 checksum and the file path.

Tests that test case EDID is setup correctly, and that color devices for
monitors are created.
tests/color: Add hotplugging tests
Checks that changing the number of connected monitors reflects the
number of current color devices, and that we end up with the correct end
state.

Ready means it has established the connection to colord and can operate.
Will be used by tests to make sure tests don't fail due to race
conditions when connecting to colord.

gsd-color provides this API, which exposes details about the night light
state. Currently, gsd-color also turns this state into CRTC gamma
changes, but this will eventually change, and this is a preparation for
this.
The proxy isn't yet used for anything.

Previously, gsd-color handled adding color devices. It got information
about those via the GnomeRR API, which is part of libgnome-desktop.
libgnome-desktop itself got this information from the
org.gnome.Mutter.DisplayConfig.GetResources() D-Bus method, implemented
by mutter.
Now, mutter itself will add all the monitor color devices itself,
without having to go via gsd-color.
We sometimes need to delete colord devices synchronously, in certain
race conditions when we add and remove devices very quickly (e.g. in
tests). However, we cannot use libcolord's 'sync' API variants, as it
has a nested takes-all main loop as a way to invoke the sync call. This
effectively means we end up sometimes not return from this function in a
timely manner, causing wierd issues.
Instead, create our own sync helper, that uses a separate context that
we temporarly push as the thread-default one.

Create a color manager type that eventually will be the high level
manager of color related behavior, such as ICC profiles and
color "temperature" a.k.a. night light.
For now, it's only an empty shell. It's also constructed by the actual
backend, as at a later point, the X11 and native color management
implementations will differ.
