Sebastian Wick 399ffdfc88 kms/connector: Keep a ref to the KmsImplDevice instead of KmsDevice
The KmsImplDevice always exists as long as a KmsConnector exists. The
KmsDevice doesn't exist yet as long as the KmsImplDevice is not fully
initiallized. Going through the KmsImplDevice makes sure we always have
a valid reference and can release the device fd correctly when the
initialization fails.

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 of 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.
