By using a new signal, ::create-surface (width, height), it should be
possible for third party code and sub-classes to override the default
surface creation code in CairoSurface.
This commit takes a bit of the patch from:
http://bugzilla.clutter-project.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1878
which cleans up CairoTexture; the idea, mutuated from that bug, is that
the CairoTexture actor checks whether the surface it has it's an image
one, and in that case it uses a Cogl texture as the backing store. In
case the surface is not an image one we assume that the surface itself
has some way of updating the GL state and flush the surface.
Since using addresses that might change is something that finally
the FSF acknowledge as a plausible scenario (after changing address
twice), the license blurb in the source files should use the URI
for getting the license in case the library did not come with it.
Not that URIs cannot possibly change, but at least it's easier to
set up a redirection at the same place.
As a side note: this commit closes the oldes bug in Clutter's bug
report tool.

Document that repeated calls to clutter_cairo_texture_create()
continue drawing on the same cairo_surface_t. Add
clutter_cairo_texture_clear() for when you don't want that behavior.

The cairo pkg-config is crafted such that #include <cairo.h> should be used.
If building with a private build of cairo installed to a custom prefix
<cairo/cairo.h> can cause an un-intended cairo header to be picked up during
compilation due to /usr/include being in the header search path.
Move the ClutterCairo actor from a separate library to an in-tree
actor.
ClutterCairoTexture is a simple texture subclass that allows you
to retrieve a Cairo context for a private image surface. When the
Cairo context is destroyed it will cause the image surface
contents to be uploaded to a GL texture.
The image surface used is not hardware accelerated.
