2fb3bdf774 input-capture: Hook up capturing of events to active session
This adds the actual input capturing rerouting that takes events and
first hands them to the input capture session, would it be active.
Events are right now not actually processed in any way, but will
eventually be passed to a libei client using libeis.

A key binding for allowing cancelling the capture session is added
(defaults to <Super><Shift>Escape) to avoid getting stuck in case the client
doesn't even terminate the session.

The added test case makes sure that the pointer moves again after
pressing the keybinding.

a8b013b006 Add beginning of input capture API
This API aims to provide a way for users to capture input devices under
certain conditions, for example when a pointer crosses a specified
barrier.

So far only part of the API is implemented, specifially the session
management as well as zone advertisement, where a zone refers to a
region in the compositor which edges will eventually be made available
for barrier placement.

So far the remote access handle is created while the session is enable,
despite the input capturing isn't actually active yet. This will change
in the future once it can actually become active.

v2: Remove absolute/relative pointer, keep only pointer (ofourdan)
