Add API to get the layout group (layout index) currently active. In the
native backend this is done by fetching the state directly from the
evdev backend; on X11 this works by listening for XkbStateNotify
events, caching the layout group value.

Don't wait for clutter to initialize for connecting to X11; do it when
constructing the backend instance. This way we can later depend on
having an X11 connection earlier during initialization.

Split up the MetaRendererX11 class into one for when running as a

Implement MetaDnd for emitting DnD signals to plugins such as gnome-shell. The
xdnd handling code comes from gnome-shell, and it is hidden behind MetaDnd now.

When running nested, the pointer can be outside of the stage, meaning
outside of any logical monitor. Handle this when getting the current
logical monitor by falling back to the first logical monitor when the
pointer coordinate is outside of any logical monitor.

Set up things so that if the INTEL_swap_event extension is not present,
but the driver is known to have good thread support, we use an extra
thread and call glXWaitVideoSync() in the thread. This allows idles
to work properly, even when Mutter is constantly redrawing new frames;
otherwise, without INTEL_swap_event, we'll just block in glXSwapBuffers().

Split up the X11 backend into two parts, one for running as a
Compositing Manager, and one for running as a nested Wayland
compositor.
This commit also cleans up the compositor configuration calculation,
attempting to make it more approachable.

The method used for getting the current logical monitor (the monitor
where the pointer cursor is currently at) depends on the backend type,
so move that logic to the corresponding backends.

Add support for drawing a stage using multiple framebuffers each making
up one part of the stage. This works by the stage backend
(ClutterStageWindow) providing a list of views which will be for
splitting up the stage in different regions.
A view layout, for now, is a set of rectangles. The stage window (i.e.
stage "backend" will use this information when drawing a frame, using
one framebuffer for each view. The scene graph is adapted to explictly
take a view when painting the stage. It will use this view, its
assigned framebuffer and layout to offset and clip the drawing
accordingly.
This effectively removes any notion of "stage framebuffer", since each
stage now may consist of multiple framebuffers. Therefore, API
involving this has been deprecated and made no-ops; namely
clutter_stage_ensure_context(). Callers are now assumed to either
always use a framebuffer reference explicitly, or push/pop the
framebuffer of a given view where the code has not yet changed to use
the explicit-buffer-using cogl API.
Currently only the nested X11 backend supports this mode fully, and the
per view framebuffers are all offscreen. Upon frame completion, it'll
blit each view's framebuffer onto the onscreen framebuffer before
swapping.
Other backends (X11 CM and native/KMS) are adapted to manage a
full-stage view. The X11 CM backend will continue to use this method,
while the native/KMS backend will be adopted to use multiple view
drawing.

The stage resizing was placed in the generic backend, which was only
run on certain configurations (when running nested or using the native
backend). This commits makes the resizing more explicit thus more
obvious.

MetaRenderer is meant to be the object responsible for rendering the
scene graph. It will contain the logic related to the cogl winsys
backend, the clutter backend, and the clutter stage window.

Introduce two new clutter backends: MetaClutterBackendX11 and
MetaClutterBackendNative. They are so far only wrap ClutterBackendX11
and ClutterBackendEglNative respectively, but the aim is to move things
from the original clutter backends when needed.

Emit a signal so that interested parties can recreate their FBOs and
queue a full scene graph redraw to ensure we don't end up showing
graphical artifacts.
This relies on the GL driver supporting the
NV_robustness_video_memory_purge extension and cogl creating a
suitable GL context. For now we only make use of it with the X backend
since the only driver with which this is useful is NVIDIA.

Ubuntu ships a patch in the X server that makes the group switch
keybindings only work on key release, i.e. the X server internal group
locking happens on key release which means that mutter gets the
XKB_KEY_ISO_Next_Group key press event, does its XLockGroup() call
with a new index and then, on key release, the X server moves the
index further again.
We can work around this without affecting our behavior in unpatched X
servers by doing a XLockGroup() every time we're notified of the
locked group changing if it doesn't match what we requested.

Use a specialized cursor renderer when running as a nested Wayand
compositor. This new renderer sets an empty X11 cursor and draws the
cursor as part of the stage using the generic cursor renderer drawing
path.

This fixes build error caused by commit 614d6bd. We can simply remove
the usage of meta-wayland.c functions in non-wayland build because
META_BACKEND_X11_MODE_NESTED is only used in wayland.

If the user Alt-Tabs out of the window, we will be left thinking
the Alt key is still pressed since we don't see a release for it.
Solve this and other related issues for the nested X11 compositor
by selecting for KeymapStateMask which causes a KeymapNotify event
to be sent after each FocusIn, and when we get these events, update
the internal XKB state and send any necessary modifiers events to
clients.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=753948
Since mutter has two X connections and does damage handling on the
frontend while fence triggering is done on the backend, we have a race
between XDamageSubtract() and XSyncFenceTrigger() causing missed
redraws in the GL_EXT_X11_sync_object path.
If the fence trigger gets processed first by the server, any client
drawing that happens between that and the damage subtract being
processed and is completely contained in the last damage event box
that mutter got, won't be included in the current frame nor will it
cause a new damage event.
A simple fix for this would be XSync()ing on the frontend connection
after doing all the damage subtracts but that would add a round trip
on every frame again which defeats the asynchronous design of X
fences.
Instead, if we move fence handling to the frontend we automatically
get the right ordering between damage subtracts and fence triggers.

While we shouldn't normally receive crossing events for any windows
except the stage when running nested, we do in case we hold a pointer
grab - just ignore those events instead of taking down the user's
session.
If GL advertises this extension we'll use it to synchronize X with GL
rendering instead of relying on the XSync() behavior with open source
drivers.
Some driver bugs were uncovered while working on this so if we have
had to reboot the ring a few times, something is probably wrong and
we're likely to just make things worse by continuing to try. Let's
err on the side of caution, disable ourselves and fallback to the
XSync() path in the compositor.

For enter / leave events, which we use in the UI code, we need to make
sure that these coordinates are root-relative as well, otherwise the
cursor when entering frames might be incorrect.
If we're running as a nested compositor, we must not attempt to
passive grab on the root window, and we should be setting the
touch event mask on the stage window.

On X11, calling this function on meta_display_handle_events() will not catch
mouse events happening over clients, so poke directly in the backend for
XI_DeviceChanged events, which mutter will get on device switches.
The code has been slightly refactored so we deal with XIEvents at a single
handle_input_event() function.

The X server applies a default keymap to hotplugged keyboard
devices. To enforce our current settings we must re-upload the keymap
when a new keyboard shows up.
Note that setting the VCK keymap causes the server to propagate it
to all slave keyboard devices.

In the case of a nested Wayland compositor inside an X session,
Clutter is managing the toplevel window size, so don't call
XResizeWindow on it - this will confuse Clutter and get the size
and the hints out of sync on the toplevel window.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=736279
meta_backend_get_keymap is supposed to return a static keymap, not a new
one every time. Cache it internally. We don't update it when the keymap
changes on the server, but we'll do this soon.
This allows creating the stage much earlier than it otherwise would have
been. Our initialization sequence has always been a bit haphazard, with
first the MetaBackend created, then the MetaDisplay, and inside of that,
the MetaScreen and MetaCompositor.
Refactor this out so that the MetaBackend creates the Clutter
stage. Besides the clarity of early initialization, we now have much
easier access to the stage, allowing us to use it for things such as
key focus and beyond.
These methods allow us to set and get xkbcommon keymaps as well as
locking a specific layout in a layout group.
With this, we introduce dependencies on xkeyboard-config, xkbfile,
xkbcommon-x11 and a libX11 new enough to have xcb support.

Sometimes we can get a host event without having the display up and
running yet. Just don't pass it to the compositor in that case, since it
won't be possible for it to have any event that matters.
This reverts commit 3b85e4b2b9.
This breaks touch support; reverting would break wayland
(is what this patch tried to fix; we should find a better solution
that works on both).
When a touch sequence is passively grabbed and later rejected, events
will be replayed on the next client in propagation order, although those
events (either transformed to pointer events or not) will contain the
original timestamps, this will make grabs fail with InvalidTime if triggered
from the replayed ButtonPress/TouchBegin handler.
In order to work around this, store the most recent event time (presumably
gotten from the XI_TouchEnd caused by the passive grab being rejected), and
use that time on the events being replayed afterwards and grabs, so we don't
possibly fail with InvalidTime if those events result in a compositor grab.
This makes Alt+F7 / Alt+F8 work respectively under X11 nested mode.
For the native backend implementation, we'll need a special Clutter
function, so don't implement that for now.
