Support was added to Mutter to allow it to trigger a restart
to allow for restarts when switching in or out of stereo mode.
Hook up to the new signals on MetaDisplay to show the restart
message and reexec. Meta.is_restart() is used to suppress
the startup animation.
This also allows us to do 'Alt-F2 r' restarts more cleanly
without a visual flash and animation.

Add a --hwtest option to gnome-shell-perf-helper which runs the
tests in perf/hwtest.js with the appropriate environment, and then
logs the results using the 'gnome-hwtest-log' utility which is
available in the hardware testing environent.
(For development of hwtest.js in a normal environment, run the tests
as: gnome-shell-perf-tool --perf=hwtest --extra-filter=Gedit)

It's useful to know how long frames are taking to render on the GPU.
This is impossible to measure in the normal case because frames may
parallelize with previous frames, but by calling glFinish() at the
end of the frame, we can create a (somewhat artificial, but useful)
environment where we have a meaningful timestamp for the frame
finishing drawing.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=732350
Instead of always logging frame timestamps for every frame - which
was using >26 bytes of memory per frame, or 5MB per hour of continuous
redrawing - make frame timestamps something that defaults off and is
turned turned on using a new ShellGlobal::frame-timestamps property by
the perf scripts.

Add an option for windows created with Scripting.createTestWindow()
to continually redraw themselves; this is for testing performance
of application updates.

We currently replay events that should start a search to the search
entry, which is fairly dodgy. Synthesize a new event with the correct
source actor instead, which is a bit less evil.
If an active grab on pointer events happens during multi-touch operations,
all non-pointer-emulating touches will be muted. This may leave the
Clutter.ClickAction incomplete if triggered by one of those sequences,
just to have a gesture take over and trigger a compositor grab, which would
leave the capture-event handler stuck eating events.
So listen for grab-op-begin from the display, and ensure the action is
released if such grab begins.
and the capture event handler stuck.
When returning to the desktop from overview we always show the
workspaceDisplay, given that is which have the windows clones to allow
animations.
The problem becomes when previous that we were at some other
page, like Search or AppDisplay. The problem is that when showing the
workspaceDisplay the windows are repositioned. That's wanted except
when returning from overview, since that causes unwanted animations
of the windows.
To avoid that just not reposition the windows if leaving the overview.
On X11 we don't need to scale up fonts because font scaling is already handled
by clutter based xft-dpi. On wayland we need to set the resolution by ourselves
so do that when the scale factor changes.

We don't normally hit the code in scripting.js to print metrics
because shell-perf-tool bypasses it, but there was a left-over
in the code that no longer works. Also add in the units to the
output.

If reusing an existing separate builddir, the generation of dependencies
for the JS resource file would fail because it couldn't find misc/config.js,
resulting in the resource file not being regenerated.
