The initial pointer position is set by clutter. At the moment it
is the point 16x16 on the screen. But this point is not always
in the visible area on monitors (the monotors can be arranged in
many different ways).
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=745752
Otherwise the pointer might be "lost" outside the visible area. Note
that the constraining code only ensures the pointer doesn't leave the
visible area but if the pointer is already outside because the rug was
pulled under it then it doesn't do anything.

When running as a dispay server pointer barriers are a server side
feature and requires no client interaction of any sort. This patch
implements pointer barriers that can be used when running as a display
server on the native backend. Running as a display server using the X11
backend is currently not supported.

We need to tell clutter's evdev backend about the desktop's key repeat
settings so that our own key bindings event processing and
gnome-shell's chrome widgets get their fake key events for continuous
key press as they expect.
Note that the wayland frontend filters out these events and thus
wayland clients do not see them as specced.

We'll need this in the wayland frontend to send a modifiers event to
clients.
Note that on X11 this isn't needed because key events include the
group index encoded in modifier state. If we ever want to make the
wayland frontend work with the X11 backend we'll handle it then.

These methods allow us to set and get xkbcommon keymaps as well as
locking a specific layout in a layout group.
With this, we introduce dependencies on xkeyboard-config, xkbfile,
xkbcommon-x11 and a libX11 new enough to have xcb support.
