Things like meta_compositor_destroy() and meta_compositor_add_window()
isn't intended to be used externally, and if they was, things would
probably fall apart rather quickly.
MetaCompositor also isn't introspected, meaning things that technically
belong to the compositing parts isn't easily available via some object,
but much take detours via other objects like MetaDisplay.
So move the API intended for internal usage to compositor-private.h, and
leave API that is meant to be expose in the public compositor.h.

Instead of passing around state using GINT_TO_POINTER() pass around a
state struct that also carries a pointer to the context. This allows
avoiding using old singletons for getting a window list.

On the path towards clear ownership chains and always using them to find
other components, do the same for X11 client support paths too.

The API has no concept of user data, and requires the user to some how
get an instance without context, i.e. via static globals. Limit this to
the file where this is needed.

As elsewhere, make sure objects that need to have a ownership up to the
context, and use this ownership chain to find relevant components, such
as the backend or the Wayland compositor object instance.
wayland/data-device: Hook up data devices to seats
They are tied to a seat - make that connection in struct fields too, so
that related objects can get to the context via it.
wayland: Don't get Wayland compositor via singleton getter
This means via the ownership chain or equivalent.
xwayland: Hook up manager to Wayland compositor
Same applies to the drag-n-drop struct.
xwayland: Make X11 event handling compositor instance aware
This avoids finding it via singletons in the callee.
xwayland: Don't get Wayland compositor from singleton
xwayland: Pass manager when handling dnd event
window/xwayland: Don't get Wayland compositor from singleton
xwayland/grab-keyboard: Don't get backend from singleton
xwayland: Don't get backend from singleton
wayland: Always get the backend from the context
This means traveling up the ownership chain or equivalent when
necessary.
wayland: Hook up data devices, offers and sources to the compositor
This allows tying them to a context without going through any
singletons.
wayland: Don't get display from singleton
xwayland: Don't get display from singleton
tablet: Don't get display from singleton
Part-of: <https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/-/merge_requests/2718>
As with other parts, make objects have the ability to walk up the
ownership chain to the context, to get things like the Wayland
compositor or backend instances.
Contains these squashed commits:
display: Don't get backend from singleton
window: Don't get backend from singleton
keybindings: Don't get backend from singleton
workspace: Don't get backend from singleton
display: Don't get Wayland compositor from singleton
selection: Add display getter
context/main: Get backend directly from the context
clipboard-manager: Don't get display from singleton
stack-tracker: Don't use singleton MetaLater API
startup-notification: Hook up sequences and activations to display
This allows using context aware API directly.

The meta_prop_get_motif_hints() function was only used in the
old MetaUI frames code. The remaining code in mutter accesses
directly the MetaPropValue when loading properties for a window,
and does not use this API call.

Since we use XCB in the Mutter side, but Xlib in the frames client,
we cannot share the same struct definition since both libraries
will expect different type lengths (respectively, 32-bit ints vs.
longs).
Revert the changes that made both executables share the same
struct, since not both of them can get it right (and retrieve
correctly the struct with the contained flags) in reading the
Motif WM hints.
This reverts commit 2fb3c5a4f5.
Part-of: <https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/-/merge_requests/2741>
These are now referenced on the frames client side (in order to
track deletable state from the client window) and the mutter side
(pretty much everything else, like figuring out if a window wants
WM decorations).
It makes sense to make this a separate header, so that we don't
need to doubly define these flags/structs.

Since the frames are now rendered by a separate process, we no longer
can guarantee at this point that all updates were handled. Engaging
in a new synchronous resize operation will again freeze the actor,
so sometimes we are left with a not-quite-current buffer for the
frame+window surface.
In order to ensure that the right changes made it onscreen, delay
this next synchronous resize step until the moment the surface was
repainted. This avoids those glitches, while still ensuing the
resize operation ends up in sync with the pointer.
Part-of: <https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/-/merge_requests/2175>
There's two meanings of "frame" there! Since SSD frames are now
rendered by an external client, and there are no actual mechanism
that ensures the frame did already get painted when the client did
respond to its NET_WM_FRAME_SYNC_REQUEST request, there may be
artifacts when resizing windows.
In order to get always the best visual result, we should actually
synchronize rendering with both the client window and the window
frame window.
This commit adds these mechanisms, so a sync alarm update is
expected on both windows until further resizes are allowed, this
ensures window and frame stay in sync, even after moving rendering
elsewhere.
Part-of: <https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/-/merge_requests/2175>
It will become necessary to track properties and changes from frame windows,
and it will be more convenient to have this managed by the common property
tracking mechanisms.
Add this source_xwindow parameter so property handler functions can check
whether the property belonged to the client Window or the frame Window.

Store the alarms in a different hashtable, and look up the MetaSyncCounter
right away. It so far avoids the MetaWindow middle man, but will also be
simpler when each window can possibly have more than one active alarms.

Replace the in-process implementation of frames with the external
frames client.
When a client window is created and managed by Mutter, Mutter will
determine whether it is a window that requires decorations and
hint the creation of a frame for it by setting the _MUTTER_NEEDS_FRAME
property on the client window.
After the frames client created a window that has the _MUTTER_FRAME_FOR
property, Mutter will proceed to reparent the client window on the
frame window, and show them as a single unit.
Rendering and event handling on the frame window will be performed by
the external client, Mutter is still responsible for everything else,
namely resizing client and frame window in synchronization, and
managing updates on the MetaWindowActor.
In order to let the frame be managed by the external client, Mutter
needs to change the way some properties are forwarded to the client
and/or frame windows. Some properties are necessary to keep propagating
to the client window only, some others need to happen on the frame
window now, and some others needs to be propagated on both so they
are synchronized about the behavior.
Also, some events that were previously totally unexpected in frame
windows are now susceptible to happen, so must be allowed now.
MetaFrame in src/core/frame.c now acts as the wrapper of foreign
windows created by the frames client, from the Mutter side. Location,
size, and lifetime are still largely in control of Mutter, some
details like visible/invisible borders are obtained from the client
instead (through the _MUTTER_FRAME_EXTENTS and _GTK_FRAME_EXTENTS
properties, respectively).

This check dates all the way back to commit ac2aa5337d. At the time, the
window switcher was an actual X window, that could generate crossing events
if popped up under the pointer. Checking for this kind of crossing events
made sense back at the time in order not to break focus-follows-mouse as
it's been behaving for long.
But now, this UI is all Clutter widgetry, which in the worst case (X11
sessions, of course) it will update the stage window shape to make these
parts clickable. This happens in other places of code that do already
check for ignoring crossing events.
Underneath, this looked up for a Mutter-local GdkWindow of type
GDK_WINDOW_TEMP, only the main MetaFrames window matches those characteristics
nowadays, notably no window switcher popups. Since the remaining window is
never unmapped (until perhaps shutdown), the paths were functionally dead.
Part-of: <https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/-/merge_requests/2175>
If the window is not managed, it's weird that it asks for _NET_FRAME_EXTENTS,
it's even weirder that mutter replies with a frame border that would only
apply if the window were managed. Stop doing the latter, and drop the
MetaUI call that calculates borders from the theme settings.

Put the helper to use, in order to lift MetaWindow itself from this
accounting. As a bonus, the data itself now moved to the MetaWindowX11
private struct, since this may only happen with X11 windows (or its
Xwayland subclass).

This helper struct takes care of the handling of requests and alarms
in order to satisfy NET_WM_SYNC_REQUEST. It will be necessary to
decouple rendering of windows and frames in future commits, so each
window may need its own synchronization and accounting.

Currently, we will notify the display about a new window being created
during the constructed phase of the GObject. During this time,
property-change notifications are frozen by GObject, so we'll emit a few
::notify signals only after the window-created signal, although
the actual property change happened before that.
This caused confusion in gnome-shell code where a notify::skip-taskbar =
true emission was seen when the property already was true inside a
window-created handler before.
In order to fix that that, we notify the window creation
post-construction
of the GObject on GInitable.init vfunc

Instead of having users of the test client manually deal with alarm
filters, let the test client automatically add itself as filters. This
changes the MetaX11Display a bit, to handle an array of filters instead
of a single filter.

With high frequency mouse devices, we would send very many configure
events per each update cycle, which had the end result that some clients
constantly re-allocating and redrawing their buffers far too often, if
they did this in direct response to xdg_toplevel configure events.
Lets throttle the interactive resize updates to stage updates, to avoid
having these clients doing the excessive buffer reallocation.
This also removes some old legacy X11 client resize throttling, that
throttled a bit arbitrarily on 25 resizes a second; it is probably
enough to throttle on stage updates for these clients.

There were some magic conditions that decided when
meta_window_constrain() was to be called or not. Reasoning about and
changing these conditions were complicated, and in practice the caller
knows when constraining should be done. Lets change things by adding a
'constrain' flag to the move-resize flags that makes this clearer. This
way we can, if needed, have better control of when a window is
constrained or not without leaking that logic into the generic
to-constrain-or-not expression.

It exposed unnecessary public and private API, and used a global static
variable instead of a return value, none which was necessary. Remove

mutter needs GDK to use the x11 backend. It already calls
gdk_set_allowed_backends ("x11") for this purpose; however, if
GDK_BACKEND=wayland (or any other non-x11 backend possibly) happened to
be in the environment, GDK would fail to initialize at all. This would
result in mutter not registering as X11 window manager, and all X11
clients hanging.
Big thanks to Olivier Fourdan for figuring this out!

* Restore original value of GDK_BACKEND environment variable after

In the past, barries were added to the window management X11 display
instance window table, and then special cased when iterating over the
list.
Since then, barriers, which are really part of the backend, has stopped
being added to the window hash table, instead being managed by the
backend. Lets clean up the left-over special casing that is no longer
needed.
Part-of: <https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/-/merge_requests/2442>
Prior to this commit, barriers were created with a MetaDisplay pointer,
despite being entities related and owned by the backend. In the X11
case, it was also not hooked up to the backend X11 connection, but the
clutter one, meaning for example that the logic was active (but dormant)
also for the Xwayland connection.
Fix this by moving X11 barrier management and event processing fully to
the backend. Also replace passing a display pointer with passing a
backend pointer. Keep the display pointer around for a release, but mark
it as deprecated.

Xwayland can disappear at any time, for example during a new_async() or
read_async() call. When we eventually finalize the stream, the X11
display it was created for is gone, thus can't clean up the X11
resources. Handle this by making the MetaX11Display pointer a weak
pointer, and ignore cleaning up if it disappeared. This is fine since
the X11 server it created those resources one is gone already.
