Instead of the home baked "inheritance" system, using a gpointer and a
GDestroyNotify function to keep the what effectively is sub type
details, make MetaOutput an abstract derivable type, and make the
implementations inherit it.

The output info is established during construction and will stay the
same for the lifetime of the MetaOutput object. Moving it out of the
main struct enables us to eventually clean up the MetaOutput type
inheritence to use proper GObject types.

DPMS is configured from a bit all over the place: via D-Bus, via X11 and
when reading the current KMS state. Each of these places did it slightly
differently, directly poking at the field in MetaMonitorManager.
To make things a bit more managable, move the field into a new
MetaMonitorManagerPrivate, and add helpers to get and set the current
value. Prior to this, there were for example situations where the DPMS
setting was changed, but without signal listeners being notified about
it.

In order to eventually support multilpe GPUs with their own connectors,
split out related meta data management (i.e. outputs, CRTCs and CRTC
modes) into a new MetaGpu GObject.
The Xrandr backend always assumes there is always only a single "GPU" as
the GPU is abstracted by the X server; only the native backend (aside
from the test backend) will eventually see more than one GPU.
The Xrandr backend still moves some management to MetaGpuXrandr, in
order to behave more similarly to the KMS counterparts.
