Once mutter is started from weston-launch on its own VT, there is
no way to change VT again (for example to actually start an application),
because the keyboard is put in raw mode.
So introduce some keybindings mimicking the standard X ones (Ctrl+Alt+Fn)
that switch the VT manually when activated.

We have no need for normally reported events during grabs. In fact, it
might be harmful. A plugin might grab the keyboard through
meta_begin_modal_for_plugin() and then expect events to be reported to
the grab window they provide. If meanwhile this XIGrabDevice is
issued, events might start being reported normally to one other of our
windows breaking the plugin event processing.
In particular, on an empty workspace, we set input focus to our
no_focus_window. Then, if gnome-shell calls
meta_begin_modal_for_plugin() and meta_display_freeze_keyboard(), in
that order, input events will start being reported to no_focus_window.
There are two issues with this. One is that no_focus_window isn't
selecting for XI input events and thus the server discards them
completely. But even if that is fixed, events being reported to any
window other than the one gnome-shell expects - the clutter stage
window - means that events will stop reaching it.

This will make it possible to implement input source switching in
gnome-shell using the popular modifiers-only keybinding that's
implemented on the X server through an XKB option.

We'll use this in gnome-shell to freeze the keyboard right before
switching input source and unfreeze it after that's finished so that
we don't lose any key events to the wrong input source.

XUngrabKey() doesn't work for XI2 grabs and XI2 doesn't provide API
with similar functionality. As such, we have to refactor the code a
bit to be able to call XIUngrabKeycode() for each key binding, then
reload keybindings and finally grab the new ones.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=697003
mutter currently only filters the overlay key through the shell
when there is a grab operation and that grab operation belongs to the
shell (because the shell is pushModal'd). This means the shell can't
filter out overlay key press events events at startup (since the shell
isn't normally modal).
This commit changes the code to always run the shell filtering code,
even when the shell is not modal.

During compositor grabs, all global keybindings that don't go
through mutter's keybinding system are blocked. To allow other
processes to make use of it, gnome-shell will expose a simple
grab API on DBus; for this, add API to grab key combos directly
instead of parsing accelerators stored in GSettings.

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.

Add an additional "switcher" keybinding for switching between
applications rather than windows (like the existing 'switch-windows'
and 'switch-group' bindings).
The purpose of the new keybinding is to be taken over by gnome-shell's
application-based alt-tab popup, so rather than actually implementing
an application switcher in mutter, let it duplicate the normal window
switcher when run standalone.

As the overlay key works differently from normal keybindings, it
requires special treatment. However, by adding a rudimentary
MetaKeyBinding for it, we will be able to confine the special
handling to mutter and treat it like any other keybinding in
the shell.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=688202
Currently keybindings are blocked while the compositor holds a grab; if
we want a keybinding to be available anyway, we use captured ClutterEvents
to determine the KeyBindingAction the event would have triggered and
run our own handlers (ugh).
Instead, provide a hook to allow the compositor to filter out keybindings
before processing them normally, regardless of whether the compositor
holds a grab or not.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=688202
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.

This is a new value, not associated with any keybindings, useful
when the WM needs to order the applications by last-interaction,
taking into account all windows.

The move-to-corner keybindings weren't treated as user actions, which
resulted in them not affecting the saved position - they weren't
always being treated as sticky. Marking them as a user action revealed
bugs in the positioning logic that were hidden by the constraint
code applied to automated moves. Fix those as well. Bug tracked
down by Mariusz Libera.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=661256
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.

Move preferences to GSettings, using mainly shared schemas from
gsettings-desktop-schemas.
Unlike GConf, GSettings support is not optional, as Gio is already
a hard dependency of GTK+.

meta_window_get_current_tile_area() computes the area where the tiled window
should be based on the current pointer position but that's only meaningful
when the user is actually dragging the window.
When running the tiling constrain the pointer might be on other monitor and at
that point the window jumps to this other monitor.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=642580
When we get a press of the overlay key, and then another key is pressed,
first try to handle the combination as a global keybinding. If that fails,
call XAllowEvents(..., ReplayKeyboard, ...) to let it be handled by
our per-window keybindings or by the application.
This requires restructuring things to call XAllowEvents a bit later
so we can pass the right mode.

gtk3 no longer has the --screen command-line argument, which mutter
was passing to zenity. Use --display (with an explicitly-specified
screen number) instead.

Sometimes on_all_workspaces is requested by the client/user, and sometimes
its calculated implicitly due to internal state. We split this up so that
we know when the user has explicitly asked for sticky window, when e.g.
setting wmspec properties or storing session info.
on_all_workspaces means this window is visible on all workspaces.
on_all_workspaces_requested, means the user explicitly made the window
sticky somehow (via imported session, _NET_WM_STATE from another wm,
toggled in the window menu, etc). It always implies on_all_workspaces is
TRUE.
Right now the only time we set on_all_workspaces is for override-redirect
windows, but later we can add a "windows on non-primary monitor are not
part of the workspace switching" feature.

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/.

As the tile preview is shown or hidden when a window is dragged
around, it may stick around if the drag operation is cancelled.
Make sure that the preview is hidden in this case.

We want switching between the windows of an application to be an easily
accessible operation. The convenient and memorable keybinding is the
key above the tab key - but the keysym for that key isn't consistent
across different keyboard layouts.
Add code that figures out the key from the XKB geometry and a magic
keysym name "Above_Tab" that refers to this key and switch
the default binding for cycle_group to <Alt>Above_Tab. (This will
have no effect for the normal case of getting the key binding from
GConf until this patch is applied to Metacity as well.)
