MetaVirtualInputDeviceX11 currently doesn't handle smooth scroll events
at all.
So, if a user of the remote desktop API uses smooth scroll events, then
only the wayland backend handles these events.
The user of the remote desktop API however, might not know which
backend is being used and actually the user should not even have to
care about it.
Actual smooth events cannot be emulated in the X11 events.
What can be done however is accumulating smooth events and then when
the accumulated steps surpass the DISCRETE_SCROLL_STEP value, emit a
discrete scroll event.
So, do exactly that, to make smooth scroll events work when the remote
desktop API is used with the x11 backend.

Given X11 nature, the pointer "leaves" the stage anytime it wanders into
a client window, or any other areas that are not deemed part of the
stage input region.
Yet we want to stay correct in those situations, e.g. have the clutter
side reasonably in sync, picking and highlighting to work properly, etc.
In order to achieve that, emulate motion events on XI_RawMotion. These
are as much throttled as our pointer tracking for a11y, in order to avoid
too many XIQueryPointer sync calls. This emulation only kicks in anytime
that X11 notifies us that we are not "on" the stage.
This replaces some sync_pointer() calls in GNOME Shell code that are
there just to compensate for this trait of X11, e.g. in the message tray
code.

Ensure we issue a motion event for the current pointer position,
as there might be situations where compositor modals get X grabs
from other clients stacked on top, or missed events in between
otherwise.
Ensure the Clutter state is still up-to-date afterwards here. This
replaces some sync_pointer() calls done in GNOME Shell code, always
done after modality changes.

Do these Wayland operations (that apply on both native and nested backends)
in the MetaCompositorServer subclass. We want to add more backend specific
behavior here in the future.

In the case that DnD is performed and succeeds, we want to release
the grab early, and let the transfer IPC happen in the back. For
that to happen without a hitch, drag source and offer must be left
related to each other after undoing the grab, even though the default
ungrabbing code does that automatically (indirectly, by unsetting the
drag focus).
In these cases, we used to manually unset the current source, so
this decoupling was skipped. Notably, one missed case is X11 DnD,
so we might end up with the situation there that DnD did succeed,
transfer is ongoing, but the source and offer are already decoupled,
this confused the machinery and missed the finishing XdndFinished
to be emitted to the X11 drag source.
The prior commits prepared for this source/offer decoupling being
a manual operation, this commit avoids doing this automatically
when ungrabbing.

This object is just being detached, with no code unref'ing it. Do
this whenever the XDnD selection goes unowned, usually a good
indication that the drag source no longer is one.

g_set_error_literal() asserts that the provided message is not NULL.
If it is NULL, the function is entirely no-op.
This resulted in a NULL dereference of the GError, which remained
NULL in this case, when trying to print a warning in
clutter_stage_cogl_redraw_view().

PipeWire recently introduced busy buffers, which actually fixes the last remaining
issue that blocked us from downgrading these cogl_framebuffer_finish() calls into
cogl_framebuffer_flush() ones.
Switch to cogl_framebuffer_flush() in all three stream sources.

When a transfer request is done to the MetaSelectionSourceRemote source,
it's translated to a SelectionTransfer signal, which the remote desktop
server is supposed to respond to with SelectionWrite.
A timeout (set to 15 seconds) is added to handle too long timeouts,
which cancels the transfer request.

Nothing is hooked up, it only does basic sanity checking i.e. whether
the clipboard was enabled when interacting with it. No actual clipboard
integration is hooked up yet.
This also syncs org.gnome.Mutter.RemoteDesktop.xml from
gnome-remote-desktop.

The original implementation of ::touch-mode tested for keyboard
presence to know whether the OSK and other touch-only features were
enabled.
However that didn't pan out, every webcam, card reader and kitchen
sink like to live a second life as EV_KEY devices. This made the
detection of actual external keyboards a much harder task than it
sounds, and was thus removed in commit f8e2234ce5.
Try a different approach here, and test for pointer devices, it
doesn't matter if internal or external devices, the rationales:
- It is significantly easier to get this right, there's virtually
no devices with abs/rel axes that don't try to be a real input
device of some sorts.
- It's not as good as testing for keyboard presence, but it's the
next best thing. These usually come in pairs, except in weird
setups.
- It is better than not having anything for a number of situations:
- Non-convertible laptops with a touchscreen will get touch-mode
disabled due to touchpad presence (plus keyboard). There's
been complains about OSK triggering with those.
- Same for desktop machines with USB touchscreens, the mouse
(and presumably keyboard) attached would make touch-mode
get in the middle.
- Convertible laptops with a broken tablet-mode switch get a
chance to work on tablet modes that do disable input devices
(e.g. detachable keyboards, or via firmware)
- Kiosk machines, tablets, and other devices that have a
touchscreen but will not regularly have a mouse/keyboard
will get the touch-mode enabled.
All in all, this seems to cover more situations the way we expect it,
there's only one situation that the OSK would show where it might
not be desirable, and one that might not show when it better should:
- Tablets and kiosk machines that get one keyboard plugged, but not a
mouse, will still show the OSK, despite being able to type right
away.
- Convertible laptops with broken/unreliable tablet-mode switch (e.g.
ignored by the kernel) rely entirely on the device/firmware
characteristics to work. If after folding into tablet mode the
touchpad remains active, touch-mode will not turn on.
Fixing the tablet-mode switch on these devices should be preferred,
as that'll also make libinput magically disable the touchpad.
The latter can be worked around with the a11y toggle. The former is
merely inconvenient, and nothing prevents the user from plugging a mouse
in addition.

Technically this is still wrong if the source actor or dnd actor are
transformed in other ways. However geometry scale is the by far most
common case and we currently lack convenience API in Clutter to
easily compute the right values.

When recording the screen and real time encoding it using a gstreamer
pipeline, that pipeline can stall when the encoder is too slow. Log a
debug message using the new SCREEN_CAST debug topic in that case so we
know when framedrops are happening.

Since commit c255031b6d, we allow some modifier+scroll events to
pass through to Clutter to enable gnome-shell to handle them. That
action shouldn't trigger a modifier-only action at the same time, so
reset the corresponding tracking just like we do for modifier+click.

Since commit c255031b6d we pass scroll-events through to
the compositor if the window_grab_modifiers are pressed;
in order to allow gnome-shell to check for those events,
expose the struct member as a MetaDisplay property.
Also take the opportunity to pick a more generic name, now
that the modifier is no longer used exclusively for mouse
clicks (unless we maintain the notion of scroll events as
button 4 and 5 "clicks").

The other end of the PipeWire stream can set the buffer data type to a
bitmask of supported buffer types. We should respect this, and not
attempt to allocate a DMA buffer if it isn't asked for.

Instead of getters, pass the width, height and stride around when
relevant. This also removes the redudant "stream_size" and
"stream_height" variables from the src struct, as they are already part
of the video format.

Mutter freezes Xwayland commits when resizing windows, and thaw them in
the window actors' after_paint() for X11.
Yet, after_paint() could be never called, as when a new window is mapped
while the overview is active in gnome-shell.
As a result, the content of the X11 window will remain invisible to the
overview.
Add a new window actor API to tell whether commits can be frozen. For
Wayland window actors, this always return FALSE, whereas for X11 window
actors, it checks whether the Clutter actor is mapped.

When (un)maximizing, (un)fullscreening, the move/resize action is
flagged with 'ACTION_MOVE' and 'ACTION_RESIZE' , while e.g.
'appears-focus' does not.
When a client misbehaved and didn't immediately reply to a configure
request with a commit with the corresponding ack_configure, the
following commit would trigger a oddly timed move, making the window
appear to move back to a previous position.
Avoid this issue by only carrying over the target window position if the
configuration actually contained a new position.
We cannot only rely on the flags however, as e.g. a new position should
be respected during interactive resize, even though only 'ACTION_RESIZE'
is passed in such scenarios.
Do the same for the size, except if the window state dictates that the
size is fixed to a certain size, e.g. being fullscreen or maximized.

Mutter needs to fetch the X11 Window ID from the onscreen and did that
by using an X11 specific API on the CoglOnscreen, where the X11 type was
"expanded" (Window -> uint32_t). Change this by introducing an interface
called CoglX11Onscreen, implemented by both the Xlib and GLX onscreen
implementations, that keeps the right type (Window), while avoiding X11
specific API for CoglOnscreen.
