Replace the 'scale' of an output with a vfunc on the MetaMonitorManager
class that takes a monitor and a monitor mode which calculates the
scale. On X11 this always returns 1, on KMS, the old formula is used.
On the dummy and test backends, the already configured values are
returned.

The default (calculated) scale is derived from the output, but
ultimately set via the monitor scale. This will enable config files to
override the scale. Yet to be done is handling when a scale is not
supported by a backend (i.e. the X11 backend).

MetaMonitorConfigStore provides an XML storage mechanism for
MetaMonitorConfigManager. It stores configuration files defined in the
same level as the MetaMonitorsConfig format, i.e. refers to high level
"monitors" and "monitor modes" instead of connectors and CRTCs.
Only reading custom files are implemented and so far unused.

Handle headless setup gracefully by having no logical monitors. This
commit only makes the monitor management code deal with it; other areas
may still not be able to handle it.

Add a meta_monitors_config_new() helper. It's exposed outside of
meta-monitor-config-manager.c already, as it'll be used externally in a
later commit.

Handle configuring when the laptop lid is closed. This is so far
handled by creating a linear configuration while ignoring the laptop
panel. Changing the current configuration will come later.

The new monitor configuration system (MetaMonitorConfigManager) aims to
replace the current MetaMonitorConfig. The main difference between the
two is that MetaMonitorConfigManager works with higher level input
(MetaMonitor, MetaMonitorMode) instead of directly looking at the CRTC
and connector state. It still produces CRTC and connector configuration
later applied by the respective backends.
Other difference the new system aims to introduce is that the
configuration system doesn't manipulate the monitor manager state; that
responsibility is left for the monitor manager to handle (it only
manages configuration and creates CRTC/connector assignments, it
doesn't apply anything).
The new configuration system allows backends to not rely on deriving the
current configuration from the CRTC/connector state, as this may no longer be
possible (i.e. when using KMS and multiple framebuffers).
The MetaMonitorConfigManager system is so far disabled by default, as
it does not yet have all the features of the old system, but eventually
it will replace MetaMonitorConfig which will at that point be removed.
This will make it possible to remove old hacks introduced due to
limitations in the old system.
