EDID parsing has been refactored to a common meta_output_parse_edid()
function, which ensures the extracted information is the same on both KMS
and X11 backend, so it can be used consistently on eg. settings values.

In recent versions of the QXL driver, it may set "suggested X|Y" connector
properties. These properties are used to indicate the position at which
multiple displays should be aligned. If all outputs have a suggested position,
the displays are arranged according to these positions, otherwise we fall back
to the default configuration.
At the moment, we trust that the driver has chosen sane values for the
suggested position.
The output_id is more of an opaque identifier for the monitor, based on
its underlying ID from the windowing system. Since we also use the term
"output_id" for the output's index, rename our use of the opaque cookie
"output_id" to "winsys_id".
Advertise the scale factor on the output and transform pointer and damage
events as well as input and opaque regions for clients
that scale up by themselves i.e use set_buffer_scale.
We do not scale any 'legacy' apps yet.

Right now this just has all of the files in one directory. We'll
be introducing more structure to this in the future, and build
a proper backend system.
