Emilio Pozuelo Monfort 1def099047 backends/native: Re-order primary GPU choosing logic
This is a step towards moving the primary GPU logic into the native
renderer exclusively. In the future the renderer will have one more
criterion on choosing the primary GPU than MetaMonitorManagerKms should
know about: does a GPU offer hardware rendering.

The choosing of primary GPU is separated from the discovery of GPUs.
When GPUs are discovered and added to the list, the MetaGpuKmsFlag is
now populated correctly and used in choosing.

Choosing the primary GPU is done after all GPUs have been found and is
slightly different from before:

- Skipping devices that do not belong to our seat now works instead of
becoming the primary GPU.

- Fall back to any non-platform, non-boot_vga device if neither kind is
found.

The old preference of platform over boot_vga device is kept.

The hotplug path will continue creating a gpu_kms without flags, because
at that point the primary GPU has already been chosen and the flags are
irrelevant.

Mutter

Mutter is a Wayland display server and X11 window manager and compositor library.

When used as a Wayland display server, it runs on top of KMS and libinput. It implements the compositor side of the Wayland core protocol as well as various protocol extensions. It also has functionality related to running X11 applications using Xwayland.

When used on top of Xorg it acts as a X11 window manager and compositing manager.

It contains functionality related to, among other things, window management, window compositing, focus tracking, workspace management, keybindings and monitor configuration.

Internally it uses a fork of Cogl, a hardware acceleration abstraction library used to simplify usage of OpenGL pipelines, as well as a fork af Clutter, a scene graph and user interface toolkit.

Mutter is used by, for example, GNOME Shell, the GNOME core user interface, and by Gala, elementary OS's window manager. It can also be run standalone, using the command "mutter", but just running plain mutter is only intended for debugging purposes.
