It is a bit backwards that events contain information about
the stage they are being handled by. It makes more sense to
specify in the ClutterEvent handling entrypoint the stage
that will handle the event.
As a first step, add this ClutterStage argument, even though
the information is still carried through the event in order to
keep satisfying calls to the getter function.
This entrypoint has been also renamed to clutter_stage_handle_event(),
so that its ownership/namespace is clearer.

Now that we have two kinds of grabs, the intricacies of event delivery
got slightly more complicated. So this seems like a good point to
introduce a new GRABS debug flag that gives an overview of which grabs
are currently in effect.

Clutter has an API to get the text direction but used to depend
on gtk3's translation domain. In order to avoid broken i18n
in case gtk3 is not installed, move the transtalable string to
clutter itself.

This changes the setup phase of clutter to not be result of calling an
init function that sets up a few global singletons, via global singleton
setup vfuncs.
The way it worked was that mutter first did some initial setup
(connecting to the X11 server), then set a "custom backend" setup vfunc
global, before calling clutter_init().
During the clutter_init() call, the context and backend was setup by
calling the global singleton getters, which implicitly created the
backend and context on-demand.
This has now changed to mutter explicitly creating a `ClutterContext`
(which is actually a `ClutterMainContext`, but with the name shortened to
be consistent with `CoglContext` and `MetaContext`), calling it with a
backend constructor vfunc and user data pointer.
This function now explicitly creates the backend, without having to go
via the previously set global vfunc.
This changes the behavior of some "get_default()" like functions, which
will now fail if called after mutter has shut down, as when it does so,
it now destroys the backends and contexts, not only its own, but the
clutter ones too.
The "ownership" of the clutter backend is also moved to
`ClutterContext`, and MetaBackend is changed to fetch it via the clutter
context.
This also removed the unused option parsing that existed in clutter.
In some places, NULL checks for fetching the clutter context, or
backend, and fetching the cogl context from the clutter backend, had to
be added.
The reason for this is that some code that handles EGL contexts attempts
to restore the cogl EGL context tracking so that the right EGL context
is used by cogl the next time. This makes no sense to do before Cogl and
Clutter are even initialized, which was the case. It wasn't noticed
because the relevant singletons were initialized on demand via their
"getters".

Will be used to trace a lot more, and with more details, and thus may
have a larger impact on what is actually measured. This potential impact
is the reason for enabling only when needed.

Not sure how to update the damage or redraw clip or something; at least
this works properly when under a constantly-redrawing window, which is
ok for debugging purposes.

This way, we can simply pop up the Looking Glass and run:
>>> Meta.add_clutter_debug_flags(Clutter.DebugFlag.PICK, 0, 0)
And measure specific actions or events on GNOME Shell.
