Havoc Pennington 125bded814 Enforce invariants on mapped, realized, visibility states
Bug 1138 - No trackable "mapped" state

* Add a VISIBLE flag tracking application programmer's
  expected showing-state for the actor, allowing us to
  always ensure we keep what the app wants while tracking
  internal implementation state separately.

* Make MAPPED reflect whether the actor will be painted;
  add notification on a ClutterActor::mapped property.
  Keep MAPPED state updated as the actor is shown,
  ancestors are shown, actor is reparented, etc.

* Require a stage and realized parents to realize; this means
  at realization time the correct window system and GL resources
  are known. But unparented actors can no longer be realized.

* Allow children to be unrealized even if parent is realized.
  Otherwise in effect either all actors or no actors are realized,
  i.e. it becomes a stage-global flag.

* Allow clutter_actor_realize() to "fail" if not inside a toplevel

* Rework clutter_actor_unrealize() so internally we have
  a flavor that does not mess with visibility flag

* Add _clutter_actor_rerealize() to encapsulate a somewhat
  tricky operation we were doing in a couple of places

* Do not realize/unrealize children in ClutterGroup,
  ClutterActor already does it

* Do not realize impl by hand in clutter_stage_show(),
  since showing impl already does that

* Do not unrealize in various dispose() methods, since
  ClutterActor dispose implementation already does it
  and chaining up is mandatory

* ClutterTexture uses COGL while unrealizable (before it's
  added to a stage). Previously this breakage was affecting
  ClutterActor because we had to allow realize outside
  a stage. Move the breakage to ClutterTexture, by making
  ClutterTexture just use COGL while not realized.

* Unrealize before we set parent to NULL in clutter_actor_unparent().
  This means unrealize() implementations can get to the stage.
  Because actors need the stage in order to detach from stage.

* Update clutter-actor-invariants.txt to reflect latest changes

* Remove explicit hide/unrealize from ClutterActor::dispose since
  unparent already forces those
  Instead just assert that unparent() occurred and did the right thing.

* Check whether parent implements unrealize before chaining up
  Needed because ClutterGroup no longer has to implement unrealize.

* Perform unrealize in the default handler for the signal.
  This allows non-containers that have children to work properly,
  and allows containers to override how it's done.

* Add map/unmap virtual methods and set MAPPED flag on self and
  children in there. This allows subclasses to hook map/unmap.
  These are not signals, because notify::mapped is better for
  anything it's legitimate for a non-subclass to do.

Outline of test categories:

The conform/ tests should be non-interactive unit-tests that verify a single feature is behaving as documented. See conform/ADDING_NEW_TESTS for more details.

The micro-bench/ tests should be focused perfomance test, ideally testing a single metric. Please never forget that these tests are synthetec and if you are using them then you understand what metric is being tested. They probably don't reflect any real world application loads and the intention is that you use these tests once you have already determined the crux of your problem and need focused feedback that your changes are indeed improving matters. There is no exit status requirements for these tests, but they should give clear feedback as to their performance. If the framerate is the feedback metric, then the test should forcibly enable FPS debugging.

The interactive/ tests are any tests whos status can not be determined without a user looking at some visual output, or providing some manual input etc. This covers most of the original Clutter tests. Ideally some of these tests will be migrated into the conformance/ directory so they can be used in automated nightly tests.

Other notes:
All tests should ideally include a detailed description in the source explaining exactly what the test is for, how the test was designed to work, and possibly a rationale for the aproach taken for testing.
