On hotplug, the events we receive from the kernel are async, and
connectors in the kernel come and go as they please. In practice, this
means that calling drmModeGetConnector() twice more or less directly
after each other, there is no guarantee that the latter call will return
anything if the former did.
When updating the connector in response to hotplugs, we'd first update
the list of existing connectors, and following that, query each and
every one again for their current state, to update our internal
representation; only the former handled drmModeGetConnector() returning
NULL, meaning if unlucky, we'd end up doing a null pointer dereference
when trying to update the state.
Handle this by querying the kernel for the current connector state only
once per connector, updating the list of connectors and their
corresponding state at the same time.
Fixes the following crash:

Mutter
Mutter is a Wayland display server and X11 window manager and compositor library.
When used as a Wayland display server, it runs on top of KMS and libinput. It implements the compositor side of the Wayland core protocol as well as various protocol extensions. It also has functionality related to running X11 applications using Xwayland.
When used on top of Xorg it acts as a X11 window manager and compositing manager.
It contains functionality related to, among other things, window management, window compositing, focus tracking, workspace management, keybindings and monitor configuration.
Internally it uses a fork of Cogl, a hardware acceleration abstraction library used to simplify usage of OpenGL pipelines, as well as a fork of Clutter, a scene graph and user interface toolkit.
Mutter is used by, for example, GNOME Shell, the GNOME core user interface, and by Gala, elementary OS's window manager. It can also be run standalone, using the command "mutter", but just running plain mutter is only intended for debugging purposes.

Git messages
Commit messages should follow the GNOME commit message
guidelines. We require an URL
to either an issue or a merge request in each commit. Try to always prefix
commit subjects with a relevant topic, such as compositor: or
clutter/actor:, and it's always better to write too much in the commit
message body than too little.
Default branch
The default development branch is main. If you still have a local
checkout under the old name, use:
git checkout master
git branch -m master main
git fetch
git branch --unset-upstream
git branch -u origin/main
git symbolic-ref refs/remotes/origin/HEAD refs/remotes/origin/main
