Make it possible to pass --headless as a command line argument in order
to turn the native backend "headless". This currently doesn't do
anything, but the intention is that it should not use logind nor KMS,
and work completely headless with only virtual outputs.

Since commit 2ceac4a device-related X11 events aren't processed anymore,
causing the input settings not to handle the devices.
This is due to the fact that we may never call clutter_seat_handle_event_post()
for such events.
While this is always happening for the native backend, it doesn't happen in
X11 because the events are removed from the queue as part of
meta_x11_handle_event(), and thus no event was queued to the stage by the
backend events source.
This also makes sure that the event post handler is called after the
event is actually processed, and not before an event is queued.

This means backend implementations can have more control of the order of
how things are destroyed. To be precise, this will, in the next commit,
allow us to destroy the logind integration after the clutter backend
thus the libinput owning seat, that uses the logind integration to
release input devices.

Simplify the handling of numlock state, so it can be entirely handled
within the input thread. Since the saving/restoring is triggered inside
each backend code, there's no need anymore for meta_backend_set_numlock().

Banish MetaInputSettings from MetaBackend "public" API, it's now meant to
spend the rest of its days in the backend dungeons, maybe hanging
off a thread.
MetaInputMapper replaces all external uses.

We are aiming for a split of HW and SW cursor rendering management.
Given the HW plane is a limited resource and the amount of cursor
renderers may be >1 (due to tablets, even though we currently use an
always-software cursor renderer there), it would ideally be able to
switch between renderers.
Being MetaCursorRenderer not really a singleton, having cursor
inhibitor accounting here doesn't pan out. Make it MetaBackend API
so all cursor renderers get the same picture.

Different devices may get standalone cursor renderers, add this API
to adapt slowly to this. The meta_backend_get_cursor_renderer() call
still exists, but shortcuts to the mouse pointer's renderer (as it
actually did before).

Not calling libinput dispatch in the backend constructor defeats the
logic in post init as the device added events have not been processed
yet.
So instead of trying to guess the cursor initial visibility, simply
update it along when devices get added.
Additional benefit, we do not need to walk the all device list looking
for touchscreens anymore, we just need to check the device being added
since the current logic is to hide the cursor as soon as a touchscreen
is found.

Mutter still relies heavily on singletons such as its MetaBackend.
For that, the backend implementation has a meta_init_backend() function
which is called at startup from meta_init(), which creates the desired
backend and sets the singleton which is returned by meta_get_backend().
Unfortunately, that means that the backend is never actually freed, and
all the code from the backend finalize function never actually get
called.
Add a meta_release_backend() to free the backend singleton.

We only want the panel autorotation to happen if the laptop has an
accelerometer, and is in tablet mode. Regular laptop mode should
lock the orientation, and let it be configured manually.

Just because X11/XI uses a particular terminology doesn't mean we
have to use the same terms in our own API. The replacement terms
are in line with gtk@1c856a208, which seems a better precedent
for consistency.

When removing a device that has been just marked as the last in use, we may
try to notify that a NULL device is the last one.
This is not supported, as both update_last_device() and the clients of the
"::last-device-changed" signal are assuming that the last device is always
a valid ClutterInputDevice.
So let's avoid erroring, and stop the idle when clearing the current device.

Replace the default master clock with multiple frame clocks, each
driving its own stage view. As each stage view represents one CRTC, this
means we draw each CRTC with its own designated frame clock,
disconnected from all the others.
For example this means we when using the native backend will never need
to wait for one monitor to vsync before painting another, so e.g. having
a 144 Hz monitor next to a 60 Hz monitor, things including both Wayland
and X11 applications and shell UI will be able to render at the
corresponding monitor refresh rate.
This also changes a warning about missed frames when sending
_NETWM_FRAME_TIMINGS messages to a debug log entry, as it's expected
that we'll start missing frames e.g. when a X11 window (via Xwayland) is
exclusively within a stage view that was not painted, while another one
was, still increasing the global frame clock.
Addititonally, this also requires the X11 window actor to schedule
timeouts for _NET_WM_FRAME_DRAWN/_NET_WM_FRAME_TIMINGS event emitting,
if the actor wasn't on any stage views, as now we'll only get the frame
callbacks on actors when they actually were painted, while in the past,
we'd invoke that vfunc when anything was painted.

Move Wayland support (i.e. the MetaWaylandCompositor object) made to be
part of the backend. This is due to the fact that it is needed by the
backend initialization, e.g. the Wayland EGLDisplay server support.
The backend is changed to be more involved in Wayland and clutter
initialization, so that the parts needed for clutter initialization
happens before clutter itself initialization happens, and the rest
happens after. This simplifies the setup a bit, as clutter and Wayland
init now happens as part of the backend initialization.

Inhibiting remote access means any current remote access session is
terminated, and no new ones can be created, until remote access is
uninhibited. The inhibitation is ref counted, meaning there can be more
than one inhibitor.

This class sits between ClutterInputDevice and the backend implementations,
it will be the despositary of features we need across both backends, but
don't need to offer through Clutter's API.
As a first thing to have there, add a getter for a WacomDevice. This is
something scattered across and somewhat inconsistent (eg. different places
of the code create wacom devices for different device types). Just make it
here for all devices, so users can pick.

Just go ATM through backend checks, and looking up directly the
native event data, pretty much like the rest of the places do that...
Eventually would be nice to have this information in ClutterEvent,
but let's not have it clutter the MetaBackend class.
