This commit introduces, and makes use of, a transactional API used for
setting up KMS state, later to be applied, potentially atomically. From
an API point of view, so is always the case, but in the current
implementation, it still uses legacy drmMode* API to apply the state
non-atomically.
The API consists of various buliding blocks:
* MetaKmsUpdate - a set of configuration changes, the higher level
handle for handing over configuration to the impl backend. It's used to
set mode, assign framebuffers to planes, queue page flips and set
connector properties.
* MetaKmsPlaneAssignment - the assignment of a framebuffer to a plane.
Currently used to map a framebuffer to the primary plane of a CRTC. In
the legacy KMS implementation, the plane assignment is used to derive
the framebuffer used for mode setting and page flipping.
This also means various high level changes:
State, excluding configuring the cursor plane and creating/destroying
DRM framebuffer handles, are applied in the end of a clutter frame, in
one go. From an API point of view, this is done atomically, but as
mentioned, only the non-atomic implementation exists so far.
From MetaRendererNative's point of view, a page flip now initially
always succeeds; the handling of EBUSY errors are done asynchronously in
the MetaKmsImpl backend (still by retrying at refresh rate, but
postponing flip callbacks instead of manipulating the frame clock).
Handling of falling back to mode setting instead of page flipping is
notified after the fact by a more precise page flip feedback API.
EGLStream based page flipping relies on the impl backend not being
atomic, as the page flipping is done in the EGLStream backend (e.g.
nvidia driver). It uses a 'custom' page flip queueing method, keeping
the EGLStream logic inside meta-renderer-native.c.
Page flip handling is moved to meta-kms-impl-device.c from
meta-gpu-kms.c. It goes via an extra idle callback before reaching
meta-renderer-native.c to make sure callbacks are invoked outside of the
impl context.
While dummy power save page flipping is kept in meta-renderer-native.c, the
EBUSY handling is moved to meta-kms-impl-simple.c. Instead of freezing the
frame clock, actual page flip callbacks are postponed until all EBUSY retries
have either succeeded or failed due to some other error than EBUSY. This
effectively inhibits new frames to be drawn, meaning we won't stall waiting on
the file descriptor for pending page flips.

The MetaKmsImpl implementation may need to add a GSource that should be
invoked in the right context; e.g. a idle callback, timeout etc. It
cannot just add it itself, since it's the responsibility of MetaKms to
determine what is the impl context and what is the main context, so add
API to MetaKms to ensure the callback is invoked correctly.
It's the responsibility of the caller to eventually remove and destroy
the GSource.

As with CRTC state, variable connector state is now fetched via the
MetaKmsConnector. The existance of a connector state is equivalent of
the connector being connected. MetaOutputKms is changed to fetch
variable connector state via MetaKmsConnector intsead of KMS directly.
The drmModeConnector is still used for constructing the MetaOutputKms to
find properties used for applying configuration.
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/issues/548https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/merge_requests/525
Move reading state into a struct for MetaCrtcKms to use instead of
querying KMS itself. The state is fetched in the impl context, but
consists of only simple data types, so is made accessible publicly. As
of this, MetaCrtcKms construction does not involve any manual KMS
interaction outside of the MetaKms abstraction.
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/issues/548https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/merge_requests/525
Represents drmModeConnector; both connected and disconnected. Currently
only provides non-changing meta data. MetaOutputKms is changed to use
MetaKmsConnector to get basic metadata, but variable metadata, those
changing depending on what is connected (e.g. physical dimension, EDID,
etc), are still manually retrieved by MetaOutputKms.

A plane is one of three possible: primary, overlay and cursor. Each
plane can have various properties, such as possible rotations, formats
etc. Each plane can also be used with a set of CRTCs.
A primary plane is the "backdrop" of a CRTC, i.e. the primary output for
the composited frame that covers the whole CRTC. In general, mutter
composites to a stage view frame onto a framebuffer that is then put on
the primary plane.
An overlay plane is a rectangular area that can be displayed on top of
the primary plane. Eventually it will be used to place non-fullscreen
surfaces, potentially avoiding stage redraws.
A cursor plane is a plane placed on top of all the other planes, usually
used to put the mouse cursor sprite.
Initially, we only fetch the rotation properties, and we so far
blacklist all rotations except ones that ends up with the same
dimensions as with no rotations. This is because non-180° rotations
doesn't work yet due to incorrect buffer modifiers. To make it possible
to use non-180° rotations, changes necessary include among other things
finding compatible modifiers using atomic modesetting. Until then,
simply blacklist the ones we know doesn't work.

Add MetaKmsCrtc to represent a CRTC on the associated device. Change
MetaCrtcKms to use the ones discovered by the KMS abstraction. It still
reads the resources handed over by MetaGpuKms, but eventually it will
use only MetaKmsCrtc.
MetaKmsCrtc is a type of object that is usable both from an impl task
and from outside. All the API exposed via the non-private header is
expected to be accessible from outside of the meta-kms namespace.

The intention with KMS abstraction is to hide away accessing the drm
functions behind an API that allows us to have different kind of KMS
implementations, including legacy non-atomic and atomic. The intention
is also that the code interacting with the drm device should be able to
be run in a different thread than the main thread. This means that we
need to make sure that all drm*() API usage must only occur from within
tasks that eventually can be run in the dedicated thread.
The idea here is that MetaKms provides a outward facing API other places
of mutter can use (e.g. MetaGpuKms and friends), while MetaKmsImpl is
an internal implementation that only gets interacted with via "tasks"
posted via the MetaKms object. These tasks will in the future
potentially be run on the dedicated KMS thread. Initially, we don't
create any new threads.
Likewise, MetaKmsDevice is a outward facing representation of a KMS
device, while MetaKmsImplDevice is the corresponding implementation,
which only runs from within the MetaKmsImpl tasks.
This commit only moves opening and closing the device to this new API,
while leaking the fd outside of the impl enclosure, effectively making
the isolation for drm*() calls pointless. This, however, is necessary to
allow gradual porting of drm interaction, and eventually the file
descriptor in MetaGpuKms will be removed. For now, it's harmless, since
everything still run in the main thread.

The “togglekeys” setting is to emit a sounds whenever the state of one
of the modifiers keys (CAPS lock, NUM Lock, SCROLL lock) is changed, it
has nothing to do with the rest of the accessibility settings.
Therefore, there is no need to reset the various timers used by
accessibility whenever the “togglekeys” setting is changed.

Before this commit, sudo x11-app, e.g. sudo gvim /etc/some-file, fails
when running a Wayland session. Where as doing this under a "GNOME on Xorg"
session works fine. For a user switching from the Xorg session to the
Wayland session, this is regression, which we want to avoid.
This commit fixes this by creating and passing an xauth file to Xwayland when
mutter starts it. Just like gdm or startx pass a xauth file to Xorg when they
start Xorg.

`cogl_util_memmem` was used as a wrapper in case `memmem` wasn't
defined, but since commit 46942c24 these are required. In case of
`memmem`, we didn't explicitly require this in the meson build files, so
add that as well.

MetaStageWatch, watch modes and the watch function are part
of the new stage view watching API. It's design does not
rely on signals on purpose; the number of signals that would
be emitted would be too high, and would impact performance.
MetaStageWatch is an opaque structure outside of MetaStage.
This will be used by the screencast code to monitor a single
view, which has a one-to-one relatioship to logical monitors.

ClutterStage:after-paint now does not guarantee a valid
implicit framebuffer pushed to the stack. Instead, use
the new 'paint-view' signal, that is emitted at a point
in the drawing routine where a framebuffer is pushed.
In addition to that, stop using the implicit framebuffer
API and port the actor-shader-effect test to read from
the view's framebuffer directly.
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/merge_requests/623
Now that ClutterStageView is embraced as part of the public
set of Clutter classes, is it possible to give consumers
of this API more information and control over the drawing
routines of ClutterStage.
Introduce ClutterStage:paint-view, a signal that is emitted
for painting a specific view. It's defined as a RUN_LAST
signal to give anyone connecting to it the ability to run
before the view is actually painted, or after (using the
G_CONNECT_AFTER flag, or g_signal_connect_after).
This signal has a corresponding class handler, which allows
Mutter to have much finer control over the painting routines.
In fact, this will allow us to implement a "paint phase watcher"
mechanism in the following patches.
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/merge_requests/623
ClutterStage:after-paint is supposed to be emitted after all
painting is done, but before the frame is finished. However,
as it is right now, it is being emitted after each view is
painted -- on multi-monitor setups, after-frame is being
emitted multiple times.
Send after-paint only once, after all views are painted and
before finishing the frame.
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/merge_requests/623
As a compositor toolkit, it makes sense to allow consumers
of Clutter interact with the stage views themselves. As such,
ClutterStageView should be a public class.
As such, it is now included in clutter.h and should not be
included directly.
