Since the full decomposed modifier state is unused, and only the
effective modifier mask matters to users, the new constructors take
just this effective modifier mask. This means this helper went
unused in the port to the new constructors, so can be now dropped.

Instead of going through the event queue, stage handling code, and
back to the input device via a vmethod call, do this directly in the
MetaSeatImpl. This is not too different from X11, where everything
happens inside the backend.

Rely on the seat stage, or other ways to fetch it. Also rely that
there is actually a single stage, so that we assign the right stage
to all events going out of the seat, in a single place.

The end goal is to have all clutter backend code in src/backends. Input
is the larger chunk of it, which is now part of our specific
MutterClutterBackendNative, this extends to device manager, input devices,
tools and keymap.
This was supposed to be nice and incremental, but there's no sane way
to cut this through. As a result of the refactor, a number of private
Clutter functions are now exported for external backends to be possible.
