This will allows us to support the XF86Display key present on some
laptops, directly in mutter. This is also known, in evdev, as
KEY_SWITCHVIDEOMODE.
The common usage for this key is to alternate between a few well known
multi-monitor configurations though these aren't officially
standardized. As an example, Lenovo documents it as:
"Switches the display output location between the computer display
and an external monitor."
On this patch, we're just introducing the configurations that have been
implemented in g-s-d until now, which go a bit beyond the above
description.

Instead of letting MetaMonitor derive the logical monitor size, then
using the main monitor for the position, just let MetaMonitor derive
the whole layout including the position. This means it can deal with
tiled monitors better, for example when the main output (the output
always active when the monitor is active) is not the origin output (the
output with tile position (0, 0)).

Just like we do for buttons, with a few twists. These have 2 directions
mappable to different keycombos, and are affected by the current mode
in their group.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=782033
This basically moves g-s-d's orientation plugin into mutter so that
eventually g-s-d doesn't need to build monitor configurations by
itself anymore.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=781906
When verifying if a configuration is applicable, don't set it as
current when applying succeeded, or else reverting to a previous
configuration doesn't work after having verified.

Differentiate between non-interlaced and interlaced modes. This is done
by appending an "i" after the resolution part of the mode ID, and
adding a 'is-interlaced' (b) property to the mode properties.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=765011
To be more flexible without having to change any D-Bus type signatures
in the future, replace the 'uint' flags value (currently determining
whether a mode is current and/or preferred) with a variant lookup table.
The keys 'is-current' (b) and 'is-preferred' (b) replace the existing
flags.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=765011
To be able to add more modes types that happen to have the same
resolution and refresh rate, change the API to specify modes using an
ID string. The ID string is temporary, and only works for associating a
mode for the monitor instance that it was part of.

When calculating sizes given some size and a fractional logical monitor
scale with precision loss, round the result of the floating point
calculation to the closest integer, as otherwise we might end up with
result smaller by 1 if there was a loss of precision when calculating
the scale.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=765011
To be able to render the pointer cursor sprite at sub-(logical)-pixel
positions, track the pointer position using floats instead of ints.
This also requires users of the cursor sprite rect to deal with
floating points, when e.g. finding the logical monitor etc.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=765011
When passing scales over D-Bus, we'll loose some precision. To set the
correct scale, use the configured scale and look up the one actually
supported by the monitor mode, and use that. To match the supported one
with the configured one, the difference must be within rounding error
range.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=765011
We manually scaled pointer motions when they travel over a scaled
monitor. When a stage view of a monitor is also scaled, in practice this
meant we scaled twice. Avoid this by only manually scaling the pointer
motion when stage views are not scaled.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=765011
When using logical sized monitors we are allowed to use fractional scaling
but only if the resulting scaled logical monitor size is in integer form.
So, in order to get this, we allow to scale the monitor to up to
8 fractional values per integer, doing some computation in order to
fetch the nearest values which are closer to the scaling factors we can
permit.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=765011
This changes the API to pass supported scales per mode instead of
providing a global list. This allows for more flexible scaling
scenarious, where a scale compatible with one mode can still be made
available even though another mode is incompatible.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=765011
When the logical layout mode is used, allow configuring the scaling to
be non-integer. Supported scales are so far hard coded to include at
most 1, 1.5 and 2, and scales that doesn't result in non-fractional
logical monitor sizes are discarded.
Wayland outputs are set to have scale ceil(actual_scale) meaning well
behaving Wayland clients will provide buffers with buffer scale 2, thus
being scaled down to the fractional scale.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=765011
To support fractional scaling, change the stage view scale to be a
float instead of an int. Also change the places where it is retrieved
and used when scaling things.

Previously gnome-shell listened on the Xft Xsettings via GTK+s
GtkSettings to get the font DPI setting. The Xsetting might not
be what we want, and we should not rely on Xsettings when we don't need
to, so lets manage it ourself.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=765011
The caller in clutter really expects an error if fd==-1, so make
sure we set one here. Otherwise we get a nice crash in addition to
the failure to open the /sys file. Also, retry on EINTR.

With GLVND, whenever we have both Mesa's and NVIDIA's drives installed
in the system, initializing the GBM backend will always succeed,
regardless of what GPU you have on your system.
This is due to GBM's software rendering fallback.
It seems better to initialize the EGLDevice backend first, which will
fail to find a device match when given a non-NVIDIA GPU.

Wacom's display tablets typically do not have (0,0) coincident with the top
left corner of the screen. This "outbound" area must be taken into account
when setting the area or else an unexpected offset of the pointer will
occur.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=784009
It is possible to interpret the ammount of padding provided to the
*_set_tablet_area functions in two different and incompatible ways. The X11
backend effectively treats them as being input-centric (i.e., the padding
defines the size of the "dead zone" on the tablet) while the native backend
has an output-centric viewpoint (i.e., the padding defines the size of the
"dead zone" on the display) viewpoint. This difference in opinion causes the
cursor offset to change when switching between Xorg and a Wayland sessions.
The calibration utility within g-c-c does its calculations with an input-
centric viewpoint, so this patch modifies the native backend to work
correctly with these values. To change viewpoints, we can simply invert
the scale and negate the offset. It should be noted that this function
also forgot to apply scaling to the offsets (as required by the matrix
transform done by libinput) which would have further compounded the
cursor offset issue under Wayland.

It would only allow to alternate between the logical monitors, we actually
want to return NULL here so it can cycle to the whole span of monitors.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=782032
Instead of checking all MetaMonitors in the monitor manager, we want to
look (as the function name says) in the MetaMonitors contained in the
given logical monitor.
Otherwise, it will return TRUE for every logical monitor, given we are
querying for an existing EDID.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=782032
Due to the pen/eraser device separation in X11, CLUTTER_TABLET_DEVICE does
not apply there, this device type is only used in native/evdev. Checking
for CLUTTER_PEN/ERASER_DEVICE makes the left-handed mode correctly applied
on tablets.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=782027
For devices connected via HDMI (supposedly TVs) we want have a
scale factor of 1 if we are *below* the smallest 4k resolution
width (not equal or above) and do the scaling factor computation
if we are above the limit. This check was apparently wrongly
ported from gnome-settings-daemon.
Based of a patch by Caolan McNamara <caolanm@redhat.com>.

We will both create and destroy monitors during initialization (when
using the X11 backend), so don't try to access the monitor manager from
the backend, but store a pointer to it instead.
It's stored in MetaMonitor even though only MetaMonitorTiled uses it,
mostly because it makes more sense to store such a pointer there.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=781723
In some circumstances, the origin tile (0, 0) is not the one that
should be used to drive the monitor when using a non-tiled mode. Update
MetaMonitorTiled to support this case. It also seems to be so that the
preferred mode might be some low resolution or bogus mode on these
monitors, so also adapt MetaMonitorTiled to manage to ignore the
preferred mode of a tiled monitor if the preferred mode doesn't use
both tiles.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=781723
Only support suggested monitor positioning if the monitor is non-tiled.
Normally this functionality is used by virtual machines to provide a
hint of how to place the virtual monitors, and they don't tend to use
tiled monitors anyway.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=781723
This commit makes it possible to configure logical monitor scale also
when running on top of an X11 server using Xrandr. An extra property
'requires-globla-scale' is added to the D-Bus API is added to instruct
a configuration application to only allow setting a global logical
monitor scale.
This is needed to let gsd-xsettings use the configured state to set a
XSettings state that respects the explicit monitor configuration.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=777732
The scale calculation doesn't really have anything to do with KMS, and
eventually we'll want to have mutter calculate the monitor scale for
non-KMS backends too, so move the scale calculation to MetaMonitor.
