A single keysym can resolve to multiple keycodes. Instead of only using
the first one and ignoring the others, we store all codes in
MetaResolvedKeyCombo and then handle all of them in keybinding
resolution. If we already have bound a keycode for a keybinding with a
specific keysym then this can get overwritten by a new keybinding with a
different keysym that resolves to the same keycode. Now that we resolve
and bind all keycodes for a keysym this might happen more often; in that
case warn but still overwrite, but only for the first keycode for each
keysym. If a secondary (i.e. all non-first keycodes) is already indexed
we just ignore that; this should resemble the old behavior where we
only took the first keycode for any keysym as close as possible.

MetaKeyCombo is about the *unresolved* keybinding, which can either be a
"keysym" (<Ctrl>F) or a "keycode" (<Ctrl>0x21). When we resolved the
keysym to a keycode, we stuffed it back in the same MetaKeyCombo, which
confused about what the "keycode" field was for. Thus, we often stomped
on the user's explicit choice if they chose a keycode binding value.
To solve this, create a separate structure, the "devirtualized key combo"
or MetaKeyDevirtCombo, which contains a resolved keycode from the
keysym, and a devirtualized modifier mask. The MetaKeyCombo is now
always a "source" value, and the MetaKeyDevirtCombo is now always what
the user chose.
This also lets us significantly clean up the overlay and ISO key binding
paths.
Commit 1af0033368 made a subtle change
regarding how XKeysymToKeycode behaves. It does a depth first search
while XKeysymToKeycode is documented to do a breadth first search:
"this function looks in each column of the core keyboard mapping in
turn and returns the lowest numbered key that matches in the lowest
numbered group" - from the XKB library documentation
Looping over all keycodes for each layout and level index makes us go
back to the previous behavior.

This removes our Xwayland dependency in the native path. The direct
grabs are still there for the X11 backend and are a bit disgusting,
but that's OK. We can refactor it out later.
This introduces some pretty lousy hackery because it depends on
https://github.com/xkbcommon/libxkbcommon/pull/10 , and I really
don't want to wait on that to squash this dep.
Now that the internal mutter bindings and gnome-shell stopped using
META_KEY_BINDING_REVERSES, and after moving the 'adding shift reverses
the keybinding action' logic to gnome-control-center, we can remove
META_KEY_BINDING_REVERSES from mutter.
Plugin API is broken as this constant is removed from the exported
headers. ABI is broken as using this flag is now a noop.

The handler pointer is dangling in MetaKeyBinding until
rebuild_key_binding_table() is run, so we can't dereference it.
Because we only need the flags at ungrab time, store a copy
in the MetaKeyBinding structure.

Mechanically transform the event processing of mutter to care
about XI2 events instead of Core Events. Core Events will be left
in the dust soon, and removed entirely.

If we want to support keybindings from extensions installed in the user's
directory, we can't take a schema, as the GSettings object needs to have
a special GSettingsSchemaSource.

Rather than defining keybindings in static arrays generated at compile
time, store them in a hash table initialized in meta_display_init_keys()
and filled in init_builtin_keybindings().
This is a prerequisite for allowing to add/remove keybindings at runtime.

If mutter is going to be a "real" library, then it should install its
includes so that users can do
#include <meta/display.h>
rather than
#include <display.h>
So rename the includedir accordingly, move src/include to src/meta,
and fix up all internal references.
There were a handful of header files in src/include that were not
installed; this appears to have been part of a plan to keep core/,
ui/, and compositor/ from looking at each others' private includes,
but that wasn't really working anyway. So move all non-installed
headers back into core/ or ui/.

Only process each key event once. If all keys are grabbed, then
don't also look for handlers for a key shortcut after processing
the grab op. If all keys are grabbed or we find a key shortcut,
don't pass the event on to the compositing mananger.
