In order to make things more and more asynchronus and to each time we
paint be an isolated event, that can be potentially be applied
individually or together with other updates, make it so that each time
we draw, we use the transient MetaFrameNative (ClutterFrame) instance to
carry a KMS update for us.
For this to work, we also need to restructure how we apply mode sets.
Previously we'd amend the same KMS update each frame during mode set,
then after the last CRTC was composited, we'd apply the update that
contained updates for all CRTC.
Now each CRTC has its own KMS update, and instead we put them in a per
device table, and whenever we finished painting, we'll merge the new
update into any existing one, and then finally once all CRTCs have been
composited, we'll apply an update that contains all the mode sets for all
relevant CRTCs on a device.

Instead of using the "discarded" page flip callback when the
"discarding" happened during actual immediate processing, communicate
the same via the KMS update feedback.
The "discarded" page flip callback is instead used only for when a
posted page flip is discarded. In the atomic backend, this only happens
on shutdown, while in the simple backend, this also happens when a
asynchronous retry sequence eventually is abandoned.
This allows further improvements making KMS handling fully async.

At first it was called seal(), but then updates could be amended after
being posted, given a flag. That flag has been removed, so we can go
back to sealing, since it's once again acts more as a seal.

We test direct client buffer scanout using a TEST_ONLY commit on atomic,
and with various conditions in non-atomic, but if we end up failing to
actually commit despite this, handle the fallout asynchronously. What
this means is that we'll reschedule a new frame immediately.
For this to work, the same scanout buffer needs to be avoided for the
same CRTC. This is done by using the newly added signal on the
CoglScanout object to let the MetaWaylandBuffer object mark the current
buffer as non-working for the onsrceen that it failed on. This allows to
re-try buffers on the same onscreen when new ones are attached.
This queues a full damage, since we consumed the qeued redraw rect. The
redraw rect wasn't lost - it was accumulated to make sure the whole
primary plane was redrawed according to the damage region, whenever we
would end up no longer doing direct scanout, but this accumulation only
works when we're not intentionally stopping to scanout. For now, lets
just damage the whole view, it's just an graceful fallback in response
to an unexpected error anyway.

Doing it in dispose means the backend is actively tearing down itself,
meaning various components might or might not be there, depending on how
the tearing down is implemented. Make things a bit more robust by doing
any work that might rely on the backend being there before shutdown is
done in response to the 'prepare-shutdown' signal being emitted by the
backend.

When we change the privacy screen, we added a result listener to the KMS
update object to notify the upper layer about the privacy screen state
change. This was slightly awkward as one might have changed the state
multiple times for a single update, thus it was necessary to remove any
old result listeners to an update before adding a new one.
Doing this will not be possible when updates are fully async and managed
by the KMS impl device.
To handle this, instead make the post-commit prediction notify about
changes that happens in response to a successfully committed update. We
already predicted the new privacy screen state, so the necessary change
was to plumb the actual change into a callback which emits the signal if
there actually was a privacy screen change.
This will then be communicated via the same signal listener that already
listens to the 'resources-changed' signal.

The name had a bit conceptual conflicts with MetaKmsUpdate, as it shared
its namespace but had no relation to it. Fix this by renaming it
MetaKmsResourceChanges (and the corresponding META_KMS_UPDATE_CHANGE_*
to META_KMS_RESOURCE_CHANGE_*). The term "resource" is used since that's
already used in the signal, and the fact that the changes partly comes
from changes in the DRM resource as retrieved by drmModeGetResources.

When we're predicting state, i.e. when having posted an update while
avoiding reading KMS state, copy the predicted state, update the actual

It was a bit scattered, with it being split between MetaKms and
MetaKmsImpl, dealing with MetaKmsDevice and MetaKmsImplDevice
differentation. Replace this by, for now, single entry point on
MetaKmsDevice: meta_kms_device_process_update_sync() that does the right
thing.

If there are any pending updates, for example if we painted one of
multiple monitors but without having posted the update due to waiting
for another monitor to be painted, but before we paint all of them and
post the update, another hotplug event happens, we'd have stale pending
KMS update. When that update eventually would be processed, we'd try to
apply out-of-date updates which may contain freed memory.
Fix this by discarding any update when we're rebuilding the views. We
can be sure not to need any of the old updates since we're rebuilding
the whole content anyway.

This API can be used to construct a MetaKmsUpdate with plane assignments
that in isolation will be tested against the current KMS state. How it
is tested depends on the KMS implementation; in the simple / legacy KMS
backend, the tests are identical to the current scanout requirements
(dimension, stride, format, modifiers, all must match), and with atomic
KMS, it uses the TEST_ONLY on a real constructed atomic mode setting
commit.

Resume happens after we may have received various events that we've
ignored, so at this point we need to just emit an hotplug event like if
everything changed so that user settings may be re-applied.

On hotplug events we may get informations about what CRTC or connector
changed a property (and the property itself), so in such case let's just
ignore the changes to the non-affected CRTCs/connectors, and let's read
only the affected one
Part-of: <https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/-/merge_requests/1964>
On hotplug events we may receive a "CRTC" or "CONNECTOR" property that
indicates which crtc/connector property ID has changed.
In such case, instead of update data for all the devices, only update the
device containing the relative connector.

In case we have no devices, after a KMS update (both because they've
all have been removed or because there were none), we may need to behave
differently compared to the case in which nothing changed, so add a more
specific KMS update change type
Part-of: <https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/-/merge_requests/1964>
Since we cache already all the KMS parameters we care about let's check at
each device update if anything has really changed and only in such case
emit a resources-changed signal.
In this way we can also filter out the DRM parameters that when changed
don't require a full monitors rebuild.
Examples are the gamma settings or the privacy screen parameters, that
emits an udev "hotplug" event when changed, but we want to register those
only when we handle the changed property.

In order to make it possible to e.g. unload an unused DRM device, we
need to make sure that we don't keep the file descriptor open if we
don't need it; otherwise we block anyone from unloading the
corresponding module.

When drmModePageFlip() or drmModeAtomicCommit() unexpectedly failed (e.g.
ENOSPC, which has been seen in the wild), this failure was not handled
very gracefully. The page flip listener for the scanout was left in the
MetaKmsUpdate, meaning when the primary plane composition was later page
flipped, two page flip listeners were added, one for the primary plane,
and one for the scanout. This caused the 'page-flipped' event to be
handled twice, the second time being fatal.
Handle this by making 'no-discard' listener flag be somewhat reversed,
and say 'drop-on-error', and then drop all 'drop-on-error' listeners
when a MetaKmsUpdate failed to be processed.
Also for a "preserve" flagged update, don't ever trigger "discard"
callbacks just yet, as preserved updates are used again for the primary
plane composition, in order to not miss e.g. CRTC gamma updates, or
cursor plane updates, which were added separately.

The first phase happens early, which discards pending page flips,
meaning the references held by those page flip closures are released.
The second phase happens late, after other units depending on the KMS
abstraction, have been cleaned up.

Currently our only entry point for DRM devices is MetaKms*, but in order
to run without being DRM master, we cannot use /dev/dri/card*, nor can
we be either of the existing MetaKmsImplDevice implementation (legacy
KMS, and atomic KMS), as they both depend on being DRM master.
Thus to handle running without being DRM master (i.e. headless), add a
"dummy" MetaKmsImplDevice implementation, that doesn't do any mode
setting at all, and that switches to operate on the render node, instead
of the card node itself.
This means we still use the same GBM code paths as the regular native
backend paths, except we never make use of any CRTC backed onscreen
framebuffers.
Eventually, this "dummy" MetaKmsImplDevice will be replaced separating
"KMS" device objects from "render" device objects, but that will require
more significant changes. It will, however, be necessary for e.g. going
from being headless, only having access to a render node, to turning
into a real session, with a seat, being DRM master, and having access to
a card node.
This is currently not hooked up, but will be in a later commit.

Suspending might have changed the CRTC configuration, turning some off,
some on, etc. We need to update our internal representation of this
state, so that we know how to reconfigure upon resuming, e.g. what CRTCs
to turn off again.

When we e.g. try to post an direct client buffer scanout update, it
might arbitrarily fail; when this happen we still will want to post the
rest of the update when we try again after having composited the primary
plane. To do this, add a way to preserve the metadata of an update if it
failed, only dropping the failed plane assignments. This involves
unlocking a previously locked MetaKmsUpdate, so that e.g. a new primary
plane can be assigned.

Sealing is a one way operation, but in the next commit, the "seal" will
be broken, so to avoid missusing the "seal" terminology, rename related
methods and variables to use the term "lock" instead. E.g.
meta_update_is_sealed() is now meta_update_is_locked().

Something might want to affect the next update that is going to be
posted, but without posting it immediately. For example, changing the
cursor might need to wait for mode setting. Make it possible to get
feedback from posting the update, in order to gracefully handle any
errors.
Note, the API for notifiying about results take out the result listener
from the update, and notifies them in an open coded for loop. The reason
for this is that in the next commit we'll sometimes reuse updates, and
we only want notify about the results once.

Instead of a "post all pending updates", pass an update specific to a
single device. This gets rid of the awkward "combine feedback" function,
and makes it possible to queue updates to a multiple devices without
always posting them together.

For now feedbacks from an update are combined, meaning we might lose
error information. The feedback API may have to be reconsidered and
redesigned when planes gets a more front seat position.
This means we need to avoid trying to post updates if we're in power
save mode, as it may be empty.
Note that this is an intermediate state during refactoring that aims to
introduce atomic mode setting support, and we'll stop combining
feedbacks completely in the future.

When testing a laptop with intel and DisplayLink devices, attempting to set the
DL output as the only active output resulted in GNOME/Wayland freezing. The
main event loop was running fine, but nothing on screen would get updated once
the DL output become the only one. This patch fixes that issue.
DisplayLink USB 3 devices use an out-of-tree kernel DRM driver called EVDI.
EVDI can sometimes fail drmModePageFlip(). For me, the flip fails reliably when
hotplugging the DL dock and when changing display configuration to DL only.
Mutter has a workaround for failing flips, it just calls drmModeSetCrtc() and
that succeeds.
What does not work reliably in the fallback path is Mutter keeping track of the
pageflip. Since drmModePageFlip() failed, there will not be a pageflip event
coming and instead Mutter queues a callback in its stead. When you have more
than one output, some other output repainting will attempt to swap buffers and
calls wait_for_pending_flips() which has the side-effect of dispatching any
queued flip callbacks. With multiple outputs, you don't get stuck (unless they
all fail the exact same way at the same time?). When you have only one output,
it cannot proceed to repaint and buffer swap because the pageflip is not marked
complete yet. Nothing dispatches the flip callback, leading to the freeze.
The flip callback is intended to be an idle callback, implemented with a
GSource. It is supposed to be called as soon as execution returns to the main
event loop. The setup of the GSource is incomplete, so it will never dispatch.
Fix the GSource setup by setting its ready-time to be always in the past. That
gets it dispatched on the next cycle of the main event loop. This is now the
default behavior for all sources created by meta_kms_add_source_in_impl().
Sources that need a delay continue to do that by overriding the ready-time
explicitly.
An alternative solution could have been to implement GSource prepare and check
callbacks returning TRUE. However, since meta_kms_add_source_in_impl() is used
by flip retry code as well, and that code needs a delay through the ready-time,
I was afraid I might break the flip retry code. Hence I decided to use
ready-time instead.

This is so that cogl-trace.h can start using things from cogl-macros.h,
and so that it doesn't leak cogl-config.h into the world, while exposing
it to e.g. gnome-shell so that it can make use of it as well. There is
no practical reason why we shouldn't just include cogl-trace.h via
cogl.h as we do with everything else.

This is inspired by 98892391d7 where the usage of
`g_signal_handler_disconnect()` without resetting the corresponding
handler id later resulted in a bug. Using `g_clear_signal_handler()`
makes sure we avoid similar bugs and is almost always the better
alternative. We use it for new code, let's clean up the old code to
also use it.
A further benefit is that it can get called even if the passed id is
0, allowing us to remove a lot of now unnessecary checks, and the fact
that `g_clear_signal_handler()` checks for the right type size, forcing us
to clean up all places where we used `guint` instead of `gulong`.
No functional changes intended here and all changes should be trivial,
thus bundled in one big commit.

We can't just update the state of the connector and CRTC from KMS since
it might contain too new updates, e.g. from a from a future hot plug. In
order to not add ad-hoc hot plug detection everywhere, predict the state
changes by looking inside the MetaKmsUpdate object, and let the hot-plug
state changes happen after the actual hot-plug event.
This fixes issues where connectors were discovered as disconnected while
doing a mode-set, meaning assumptions about the connectedness of
monitors elsewhere were broken until the hot plug event was processed.
