We created device profiles, that we manage the lifetime of in colord,
but color devices can be assigned profiles other than the ones it was
created for. For example, this can include the standard sRGB profile
provided by colord.
To achieve this, keep track of the default profile of the CdDevice as
the "assigned" color profile of the device. Given this profile
(CdProfile), construct a MetaColorProfile that can then be interacted
with as if it was generated by ourself.
The assigned profile (default profile in colord terms) does nothing
special so far, but will later be used to determine how to apply CRTC
gamma ramps etc.
The sRGB.icc file used in the tests was copied from colord. It was
stated in the repository that it has no known copyright restrictions.

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.

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.
