That means before-update, prepare-paint, before-paint, paint-view, after-paint,
after-update. While yet to be used, it will be used as a transient frame
book keeping object, to maintain object and state that is only valid
during a frame dispatch.

As with the backend commit, this means all objects can reach the
MetaContext by walking up the chain, thus can e.g. get the backend from
the context, instead of the global singleton.
This also is a squashed commit containing:
compositor: Get backend via the context
The MetaCompositor instance is owned by MetaDisplay, which is owned by
MetaContext. Get the backend via that chain of ownership.
dnd: Don't get backend from singleton
window-actor: Don't get backend from singleton
dnd: Don't get Wayland compositor via singleton
background: Don't get the monitor manager from the singleton
plugins: Don't get backend from singleton
This applies to MetaPlugin, it's manager class, and the default plugin.
feedback-actor: Pass a compositor pointer when constructing
This allows getting to the display.
later: Keep a pointer to the manager object
This allows using the non-singleton API in idle callbacks.

Replace the default master clock with multiple frame clocks, each
driving its own stage view. As each stage view represents one CRTC, this
means we draw each CRTC with its own designated frame clock,
disconnected from all the others.
For example this means we when using the native backend will never need
to wait for one monitor to vsync before painting another, so e.g. having
a 144 Hz monitor next to a 60 Hz monitor, things including both Wayland
and X11 applications and shell UI will be able to render at the
corresponding monitor refresh rate.
This also changes a warning about missed frames when sending
_NETWM_FRAME_TIMINGS messages to a debug log entry, as it's expected
that we'll start missing frames e.g. when a X11 window (via Xwayland) is
exclusively within a stage view that was not painted, while another one
was, still increasing the global frame clock.
Addititonally, this also requires the X11 window actor to schedule
timeouts for _NET_WM_FRAME_DRAWN/_NET_WM_FRAME_TIMINGS event emitting,
if the actor wasn't on any stage views, as now we'll only get the frame
callbacks on actors when they actually were painted, while in the past,
we'd invoke that vfunc when anything was painted.

Instead of the 'pre-paint' signal on MetaCompositor, rely directly on
the 'before-update' signal on the stage. A reason for this is that the
callback should not only invoked in connection to painting, but updating
in general. Currently the 'pre-paint' signal is emitted no matter
whether there were any painting or not, but that's both misleading and
will go away.

The MetaLater functionality needs to make sure an update is scheduled so
that it can run its callbacks etc. This used a ClutterTimeline (which is
an object more or less meant to drive animations markers, frames etc)
just to keep the master frame clock running. We're moving away from a
single master clock, so just schedule updates directly instead, with the
newly exposed API.

We need to coordinate with MetaCompositor during pre-paint so that we
have control over whether MetaLater callbacks happen first, or the
MetaCompositor pre-paint logic.
In order to do so, make MetaLater listen to a new signal "pre-paint" on
MetaCompositor, that is called MetaCompositors own pre-paint handling.
This fixes an issue where the top window actor was calculated after the
MetaCompositor pre-paint handling, meaning the top actor being painted
was out-of-date.

Since the order of destruction during MetaDisplay tear down is a bit
unordered, there are pieces that try to destruct its compositing
dependent pieces (i.e. queued MetaLater callbacks) after MetaCompositor
has been cleaned up, meaning we need to put some slightly awkward NULL
checks to avoid crashing.
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/merge_requests/798
While at it, fix some style inconsistencies, for now use a single
singleton struct instead of multiple static variables, and
other non-functional cleanups. Semantically, there is no changes
introduced.
