The G_CONST_RETURN define in GLib is, and has always been, a bit fuzzy.
We always used it to conform to the platform, at least for public-facing
API.
At first I assumed it has something to do with brain-damaged compilers
or with weird platforms where const was not really supported; sadly,
it's something much, much worse: it's a define that can be toggled at
compile-time to remove const from the signature of public API. This is a
truly terrifying feature that I assume was added in the past century,
and whose inception clearly had something to do with massive doses of
absynthe and opium — because any other explanation would make the
existence of such a feature even worse than assuming drugs had anything
to do with it.
Anyway, and pleasing the gods, this dubious feature is being
removed/deprecated in GLib; see bug:
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=644611
Before deprecation, though, we should just remove its usage from the
whole API. We should especially remove its usage from Cally's internals,
since there it never made sense in the first place.

There was previously a flag that gets set when this function was
called but nothing checked it so the function effectively did
nothing. Also the flag was a member of the backend struct but this
can't be used because the function should be called before
clutter_init so the backend is not ready yet. This patch makes the
event disabling work more like the X11 backend and set a global
variable instead.
Move the private Backend API to a separate header.
This also allows us to finally move the class vtable and instance
structure to a separate file and plug the visibility hole that left
the Backend class bare for everyone to poke into.
Since using addresses that might change is something that finally
the FSF acknowledge as a plausible scenario (after changing address
twice), the license blurb in the source files should use the URI
for getting the license in case the library did not come with it.
Not that URIs cannot possibly change, but at least it's easier to
set up a redirection at the same place.
As a side note: this commit closes the oldes bug in Clutter's bug
report tool.

The DeviceManager class should be abstract in Clutter, and implemented
by each backend, as different backends will have different ways to
detect, initialize and list devices; the X11 backend alone has *two*
ways of dealing with devices.
This commit makes DeviceManager an abstract class and delegates the
device initialization and enumeration to per-backend sub-classes.
The responsible for creating the device manager is, obviously, the
backend singleton.
The X11 and Win32 backends have been updated to the new layout; the
Win32 backend has been updated blindly, so it might require additional
testing.
The Win32 backend now implements the create_context method which
creates a context and binds it to a 1x1 invisible window. That way
there will always be a context bound and the features can be retrieved
without creating the default stage. This reflects the changes in
1c6ffc8..b245d55 to the GLX backend.
Mostly lifted from the core pointer and keyboard X11 backend support.
The win32 backend registers two devices (a core pointer and a core
keyboard) and assigns them to the event structure when doing the
translation from native events to Clutter events.
Thanks to: Samuel Degrande <Samuel.Degrande@lifl.fr> for testing this
patch.
The win32 backend now handles the WM_SETCURSOR message and sets a
fully transparent cursor if the cursor-visible property has been
cleared on the stage. The icon is stored in the library via a resource
file. The instance handle for the DLL is needed to load the resource
so there is now a DllMain function to grab the handle.
* clutter/win32/clutter-stage-win32.c
(clutter_stage_win32_request_coords): Don't resize foreign
windows.
(clutter_stage_win32_unrealize): Don't destroy foreign windows.
(clutter_stage_win32_init): Added initialiser for is_foreign_win.
(clutter_win32_get_stage_from_window): Resort to looking in the
stage list if the window isn't the right window class so that it
can still find stages with foreign windows.

foreign window for a stage.

(clutter_stage_win32_request_coords): Fixed so that it doesn't set
the position or size if it hasn't changed. This was causing
problems when the window was resized using the top left corner. In
that case the window receives resize and move messages separately
which caused the window to flash at a different size or position
while one message was handled before the other.
(clutter_stage_win32_realize): Added PFD_GENERIC_ACCELERATED to
the list of pixel format flags to force it to use hardware
acceleration.
