This protocol supersedes the internal gtk_text_input protocol that
was in place. Functionally it is very similar, with just some more
verbosity in both ways (text_change_cause, .done event), and some
improvements wrt the pre-edit text styling.
Add API to let GNOME Shell have the ability to get notified about remote
access sessions (remote desktop, remote control and screen cast), and
with a way to close them.
This is done by adding an abstraction above the remote desktop and
screen cast session objects, to avoid exposing their objects to outside
of mutter. Doing that would result in external parts holding references
to the objects, complicating their lifetimes. By using separate wrapper
objects, we avoid this issue all together.
One of the current limitations of EGLStreams is that there's no way to
resize a surface consumer without re-creating the entire stream.
Therefore, while resizing, clients will send wl_surface::attach requests
so the compositor can re-create its endpoint of the stream, but no
buffer will be available actually. If we proceed with the rest of the
attach operation we'll be presenting an empty buffer.
In order to fix this, a separate wl_eglstream_controller protocol has
been introduced that clients can use to request a stream re-creation
without overloading wl_surface::attach for that purpose.
This change adds the required logic to create the corresponding
wl_eglstream_controller global interface that clients can bind to.
Whenever a client requests a stream to be created, we just need to
create and realize the new EGLStream buffer. The same buffer resource
will be given at a later time to wl_surface::attach, whenever new
content is made available by the application, so we can proceed to
acquire the stream buffer and update the surface state.

Remove some X11 compositing manager specific code from the general
purpose cursor tracker into a new MetaCursorSprite based special
purpose XFIXES cursor sprite.
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/issues/77
Introduce a new type MetaCursorSpriteXcursor that is a MetaCursorSprite
implementation backed by Xcursor images. A plain MetaCursorSprite can
still be created "bare bone", but must be manually provided with a
texture. These usages will eventually be wrapped into new
MetaCursorSprite types while turning MetaCursorSprite into an abstract
type.
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/issues/77
Rename the two cursor role types according to the convention used by the
other roles. This means that MetaWaylandSurfaceRoleCursor was renamed to
MetaWaylandCursorSurface, and MetaWaylandSurfaceRoleTabletCursor was
renamed to MetaWaylandTabletCursorSurface. The corresponding filenames
were renamed accordingly too.

While MetaStage, MetaWindowGroup and MetaDBusDisplayConfigSkeleton don't
appear explicitly in the public API, their gtypes are still exposed via
meta_get_stage_for_screen(), meta_get_*window_group_for_screen() and
MetaMonitorManager's parent type. Newer versions of gjs will warn about
undefined properties if it encounters a gtype without introspection
information, so expose those types to shut up the warnings.

This commit moves out non-core wl_surface related code into separate
code units, while renaming types to fit a common scheme. The changes
done are:
* ClutterActor based surface roles built upon
MetaWalyandSurfaceRoleActorSurface. This object has been renamed to
MetaWaylandActorSurface and related functionality has moved into
meta-wayland-actor-surface.c.
* The code related to roles backed by a MetaWindow (i.e. built upon
MetaWaylandShellSurface) was moved into meta-wayland-shell-surface.c
* The majority of subsurface related code was moved into into
meta-wayland-subsurface.c and the object was renamed
MetaWaylandSubsurface.

This is the implementation of the internal text-input protocol that will
be used to communicate IMs (to be implemented by gnome-shell) with clients.
The text_input protocol has its own focus expressed through enter/leave
events, that will typically follow the keyboard's.
The client will be able to communicate its current status (eg. focus state,
cursor rectangle in surface coordinates, text surrounding the cursor
position, ...) and will receive commands from the compositor (eg. preedit
text, committing a string, ...).
Whenever there is an active input method, the compositor will route key
events directly through it. The client will not receive wl_keyboard
events if the event is consumed by the IM.
This protocol is limited to Xwayland only and is not visible/usable by
any other client.
Mutter uses the following mechanisms to determine if an X11 client
should be granted a grab:
- is "xwayland-allow-grabs" set?
- if set, is the client blacklisted?
- otherwise, has the client set the X11 window property
_XWAYLAND_MAY_GRAB_KEYBOARD on the window using a client message?
- if not, is it a client white-listed either via the default system
list or the settings "xwayland-grab-access-rules"?

MetaWindowXwayland derives from MetaWindowX11 to allow for some Xwayland
specific vfunc that wouldn't apply to plain X11 windows, such as
shortcut inhibit routines.

The xdg-output protocol aims at describing outputs in way which is
more in line with the concept of an output on desktop oriented systems.
For now it just features the position and logical size which describe
the output position and size in the global compositor space.
This is however much useful for Xwayland to advertise the output size
and position to X11 clients which need this to configure their surfaces
in the global compositor space as the compositor may apply a different
scale from what is advertised by the output scaling property (to achieve
fractional scaling, for example).
This was added in wayland-protocols 1.10.

A hybrid GPU system is a system where more than one GPU is connected to
connectors. A common configuration is having a integrated GPU (iGPU)
connected to a laptop panel, and a dedicated GPU (dGPU) connected to
one or more external connector (such as HDMI).
This commit adds support for rendering the compositor stage using the
iGPU, then copying the framebuffer content onto a secondary framebuffer
that will be page flipped on the CRTC of the dGPU.
This can work in two different ways: GPU accelerated using Open GL ES
3, or CPU unaccelerated.
When supported, GPU accelerated copying works by exporting the iGPU
onscreen framebuffer as a DMA-BUF, importing it as a texture on a
separate dGPU EGL context, then using glBlitFramebuffer(), blitting it
onto a framebuffer on the dGPU that can then be page flipped on the dGPU
CRTC.
When GPU acceleration is not available, copying works by creating two
dumb buffers, and each frame glReadPixels() from the iGPU EGL render
context directly into the dumb buffer. The dumb buffer is then page
flipped on the dGPU CRTC.

In order to eventually support multilpe GPUs with their own connectors,
split out related meta data management (i.e. outputs, CRTCs and CRTC
modes) into a new MetaGpu GObject.
The Xrandr backend always assumes there is always only a single "GPU" as
the GPU is abstracted by the X server; only the native backend (aside
from the test backend) will eventually see more than one GPU.
The Xrandr backend still moves some management to MetaGpuXrandr, in
order to behave more similarly to the KMS counterparts.

This commit adds basic screen casting and remote desktoping
functionalty. This works by exposing two D-Bus API services:
org.gnome.Mutter.ScreenCast and org.gnome.Mutter.RemoteDesktop.
The remote desktop API is used to create remote desktop sessions. For
each session, a D-Bus object is created, and an application can manage
the session by sending messages to the session object. A remote desktop
session the user to emit input events using the D-Bus methods on the
session object. To get framebuffer content, the application should
create an associated screen cast session.
The screen cast API is used to create screen cast sessions. One can so
far either create stand-alone screen cast sessions, or a screen cast
session associated with a remote desktop session. A remote desktop
associated screen cast session is managed by the remote desktop session.
So far only remote desktop managed screen cast sessions are implemented.
Each screen cast session may have one or more streams. A screen cast
stream is a stream of buffers of some part of the compositor content.
So far API exists for creating streams of monitors and windows, but
only monitor streams are implemented.
When a screen cast session is started, the one PipeWire stream is
created for each screen cast stream created for the session. When this
has happened, a PipeWireStreamAdded signal is emitted on the stream
object, passing a unique identifier. The application may use this
identifier to find the associated stream being advertised by the
PipeWire daemon.
The remote desktop and screen cast functionality must be explicitly be
enabled at ./configure time by passing --enable-remote-desktop to
./configure. Doing this will build both screen cast and remote desktop
support.
To actually enable the screen casting and remote desktop, the user must
enable the experimental feature. See
org.gnome.mutter.experimental-features.

This commit changes the new configuration system to use monitors.xml
instead of monitors-experimental.xml. When starting up and the
monitors.xml file is loaded, if a legacy monitors.xml file is
discovered (it has the version number 1), an attempt is made to migrate
the stored configuration onto the new system.
This is done in two steps:
1) Parsing and translation of the old configuration. This works by
parsing file using the mostly the old parser, but then translating the
resulting configuration structs into the new configuration system. As
the legacy configuration system doesn't carry over some state (such as
tiling and scale used), some things are not available. For tiling, the
migration paths makes an attempt to discover tiled monitors by
comparing EDID data, and guessing what the main tile is. Determination
of the scale of a migrated configuration is postponed until the
configuration is actually applied. This works by flagging the
configuration as 'migrated'.
2) Finishing the migration when applying. When a configuration with the
'migrated' flag is retrieved from the configuration store, the final
step of the migration is taken place. This involves calculating the
preferred scale given the mode configured, while making sure this
doesn't result in any overlapping logical monitor regions etc.

The list of files being parsed for enumerations include the header file
we are building with the enumeration types.
Additionally, we are concatenating multiple runs in the same temporary
files; on failure, the temporary files are left around, which means we
end up with broken headers and sources.
This basically moves g-s-d's orientation plugin into mutter so that
eventually g-s-d doesn't need to build monitor configurations by
itself anymore.
