The events-touch test tested that clutter could properly process evdev
touch events. It used uinput to post evdev touch events, thus only ran
when runnig the test as root. Running as non-root it'd just silently
pass. As Clutter doesn't process evdev touch events anymore,
libinput does, so the test is fairly pointless, so remove it.
This commit adds meson build support to mutter. It takes a step away
from the three separate code bases with three different autotools setups
into a single meson build system. There are still places that can be
unified better, for example by removing various "config.h" style files
from cogl and clutter, centralizing debug C flags and other configurable
macros, and similar artifacts that are there only because they were once
separate code bases.
There are some differences between the autotools setup and the new
meson. Here are a few:
The meson setup doesn't generate wrapper scripts for various cogl and
clutter test cases. What these tests did was more or less generate a
tiny script that called an executable with a test name as the argument.
To run particular tests, just run the test executable with the name of
the test as the argument.
The meson setup doesn't install test files anymore. The autotools test
suite was designed towards working with installed tests, but it didn't
really still, and now with meson, it doesn't install anything at all,
but instead makes sure that everything runs with the uninstalled input
files, binaries and libraries when running the test suite. Installable
tests may come later.
Tests from cogl, clutter and mutter are run on 'meson test'. In
autotools, only cogl and clutter tests were run on 'make check'.
Since commit 5cb5baa7d4, we skip transitions when updating an
actor's scale/position to the existing value. As a result, we
don't get change notification on those properties either - given
that the properties did not actually change, that behavior seems
fine, so just modify the test to not expect a notify signal for
unchanged properties.
In order to minimize the amount of breakage, while at the same time
making it easier to make backward incompatible changes needed to
continue turning libmutter into a capable Wayland compositor, make the
libmutter and friends (libmutter-clutter, libmutter-cogl*) parallel
installable by adding a version number to the name. This changes
various filenames, for example what previously was libmutter.so is now
libmutter-0.so (assuming the version for now is 0), and
libmutter-clutter-1.0.so is now libmutter-clutter-0.so. The pkg-config
filenames and GObject introspection has been renamed to reflect this as
well.
This enables a downstream compositor rely on a specific version of the
libmutter API, while gracefully handling API/ABI changes by having to
update to the new version at their own pace.

The actor-offscreen-redirect didn't initialize its state properly, so
it could potentially end up with the "was_painted" state being TRUE
from the start, effectively skipping the whole test.
Fixing so that the test even run resulted in the test getting stuck in
a dead lock due to the verification that a frame was drawn was done
from a paint callback. A paint callback had the mutex held, so when the
test case tried to run the main loop, the next paint callback caller
path taken would try to re-lock the same mutex, thus dead lock.
