Some clients, like on-screen keyboards, don't want their windows to be
activated on click, as that would steal focus from the window they're
trying to send events to. They do this by setting the Input Hint in
WM_HINTS to be FALSE, along with not specifying WM_TAKE_FOCUS in their
WM_PROTOCOLS.
However, in this case, when a window tries to get focus in this scenario,
we focus the frame so that a11y and key navigation works properly.
Both policies aren't acceptable -- we can't make OSK steal focus from
windows on click, and we can't make an OSK un-Alt-Tabbable-to.
To solve this, split meta_window_focus() into two different focus policies:
* meta_window_focus_implicitly() should be called on pointer click or
focus-follows-mouse or similar cases where we may not want to forcibly
set focus for clients that don't want it.
* meta_window_focus_explicitly() should be called by pagers, like
the gnome-shell overview, or Alt-Tab. In this case, most of the existing
clients are using meta_window_activate(), so simply adapting that so
it calls meta_window_focus_explicitly() should be enough.

Instead of hardcoded knowledge of certain classes in MetaWindowGroup,
create a generic interface that all actors can implement to get parts of
their regions culled out during redraw, without needing any special
knowledge of how to handle a specific actor.
The names now are a bit suspect. MetaBackgroundGroup is a simple
MetaCullable that knows how to cull children, and MetaWindowGroup is the
"toplevel" cullable that computes the initial two regions. A future
cleanup here could be to merge MetaWindowGroup / MetaBackgroundGroup so
that we only have a generic MetaSimpleCullable, and move the "toplevel"
cullability to be a MetaCullableToplevel.

For clarity, rename meta_window_get_outer_rect() to match terminology
we use elsewhere. The old function is left as a deprecated
compatibility wrapper.
Instead of passing around MetaFrameBorders, compute it when we need it.
This also allows us to know that we are using MetaFrameBorders only for windows
with frames (where it is meaningful) and not for frameless windows, which
can have custom borders which we need to interpret differently.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=707194
Cache the computed border size so we can fetch the border size at
any time without worrying that we'll be spending too much time in
the theme code (in some cases we might allocate a PangoFontDescription
or do other significant work.)
The main effort here is clearing the cache when various bits of window
state change that could potentially affect the computed borders.

There are extensive places in the code where we convert between the client
rectangle and the frame rectangle. Instead of manually doing it use
new helper functions on MetaWindow and the existing meta_window_get_outer_rect().
This fixes a number of bugs where the computation was being done incorrectly,
most of these bugs are with the recently added custom frame extents, but
some relate to invisible borders or even simply to confusion between the
window and frame rectangle.
Switch the placement code to place the frame rectangle rather
than the client window - this simplifies things considerably.

What we want to achieve is that the dialog is visually centered
on the parent, including the decorations for both, and making sure
that CSD/frame_extents are respected.

We now track whether a window has an input shape specified via the X
Shape extension. Intersecting that with the bounding shape (as required
by the X Shape extension) we use the resulting rectangles to paint
window silhouettes when picking. As well as improving the correctness of
picking this should also be much more efficient because typically when
only picking solid rectangles then the need to actually render and issue
a read_pixels request can be optimized away and instead the picking is
done on the cpu.
Use the "hotplug_mode_update" connector property indicating that the
screen settings should be updated: get a new preferred mode on hotplug
events to handle dynamic guest resizing (where you resize the host
window and the guest resizes with it).

Any files matching the previously used globs are no longer distributed,
breaking distcheck. Match the actual sources in compositor/, core/, meta/
and ui/ instead.
Clients like on-screen keyboards try not to take focus when the user clicks
on their window by setting the Input hint to false. However, due to GTK+ and
GDK bugs, the public API for setting the Input hint to false don't remove
WM_TAKE_FOCUS from WM_PROTOCOLS, unintentionally putting them into Globally
Active mode.
These clients also expect that since they don't want to take focus, they want
the focus to remain on the existing window. In this case, for clients like
on-screen keyboards, it's so they can send synthesized keyboard events to the
focused window.

Expose min-backlight-step so that gnome-settings-daemon can
support backlights with less than 10 steps without mutter
normalizing the brightness back to its original value

Rather than do the cursor -> name translation ourselves in two different
places, use the facilities in libXcursor to do it for us. Put the shared
piece of code in meta-cursor-tracker, and use it for both server-side and
client-side cursor loading.
Apparently some connector technologies don't distinguish between
on and off, and there might be valid use cases for running without
any connected monitor.
In that case, just avoid any configuration at all.
