In the unlikely case that a surface is moved by the compositor while
holding a pointer confinement, we also need to update the pointer
position when the surface actor gets moved.

This patch adds support for confinement regions that are more complex
than a single rectangle. It relies on details about cairo regions not
explicitly in the API in order to generate the outer border of the
region.

The wp_pointer_constraints protocol is a protocol which enables clients
to manipulate the behavior of the pointer cursor associated with a seat.
Currently available constraints are locking the pointer to a static
position, and confining the pointer to a given region.
Currently locking is fully implemented, and confining is implemented for
rectangular confinement regions.
What else is lacking is less troublesome semantics for enabling the lock
or confinement; currently the only requirement implemented is that the
window that appears focused is the one that may aquire the lock.
This means that a pointer could be 'stolen' by creating a new window that
receives active focus, or when using focus-follows-mouse, a pointer
passes a window that has requested a lock. This semantics can be changed
and the protocol itself allows any semantics as seems fit.
