Currently, the maximum size for a mouse pointer bitmap for screen
casting is 64x64 pixels.
However, this limit is hit way too often as it is way too low and
results in crashes in either gnome-remote-desktop or mutter.
For example: The a11y settings in g-c-c allow setting a larger pointer
bitmap in order to increase the visibility of the mouse pointer.
With the current limit of 64x64 pixels it is not possible to use the
larger variants of the default mouse pointer bitmap, without
experiencing any crash.
Another way to hit the limit is when display scaling is used or some
game uses a custom (large) mouse pointer bitmap.
The VNC backend in gnome-remote-desktop does not seem to have a maximum
pointer bitmap size.
The RDP backend on the other hand has a maximum pointer bitmap size at
384x384.
Use this size (384x384) as maximum size instead of the current 64x64
size for mouse pointer bitmaps to avoid crashes in mutter and
gnome-remote-desktop and to ensure that bigger mouse pointer bitmaps
can be used.

It is linear config manager created when ensuring configuration.
However, the switch config is not set as LINEAR, but left as UNKNOWN.
This leads switch mode OSD always shows "Join Displays" icon, rather
than the next icon which is "External Only" after connect an external
display and press Super+P once at first time since mutter starts.
This patch moves switch config setting into
meta_monitor_config_manager_create_linear() (and the sibling functions)
to well prepare the monitors config and avoid missing settings.
This is a regression introduced by 149e4d6934.
Fixes: https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/-/issues/1362
Clients can set minimum and maximum to identical values to indicate a
fixed-size window. A compositor can ignore these requests and thus a client
has to ensure these limits.
To support clients that do not ensure these size limits by themselves and
to skip unnecessary function calls, we will prevent resizing requests by
the client if a fixed-size has been requested.

This was from the old clutter-as-application-library days, where it had
to try find a suitable backend. Now we already have a backend selected
(MetaBackend), and the clutter backend is already predecided depending
on that, so we don't need the code that auto detects an appropriate one
anymore.
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/-/merge_requests/1364
We're moving towards not supporting stand-alone application style
clutter stages, meaning the stage tests use will be reused instead of
recreated. To make this feasable, tests must clean up after themself.
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/-/merge_requests/1364
meta_run() is still left intact and does the same as before; the new
functions are only intended to be used by tests, as they may need to set
things up after starting up. Doing so linearly in the test case is much
easier than adding callbacks, so meta_run() is split up to make this
possible.

There is no reason to use Xsettings for the X11 backend, as it comes
from the GSetting store anyway, so move the font setting reading to
ClutterSettings and read directly from GSettings.

The delete event was used for signalling the close button was clicked on
clutter windows. Being a compositor we should never see these, unless
we're running nested. Remove the plumbing of the DELETE event and just
directly call meta_quit() when we see it, if we're running nested.
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/-/merge_requests/1364
We checked if we were using the usig the X11 backend to decide when to
deal with a11y event posting - in order to make the clutter code less
windowing system dependent, make this check a check whether we're a
display server or not, in contrast to a window/compositing manager
client. This is made into a vfunc ot ClutterBackendClass, implemented by
MetaClutterBackendNative and MetaClutterBackendX11.

Test that if a timeline got its frame clock from a parent of the
associated actor, if that actor moves across the stage so that the stage
views changes and thus the would be picked frame clock too, this is
noticed by the timeline so that it also changes to the correct frame
clock.
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/-/merge_requests/1404
Timelines where the frame clock was picked from a parent of the
associated actor didn't get notified about any stage views changes, as
it only listened on the associated actor. If that actor didn't actually
get its stage views changed (because it went from empty to empty), we'd
end up with a stale frame clock, leading to crashes.
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/-/merge_requests/1404
When we pick the frame clock given the associated actor, that frame
clock in fact comes from a picked actor. In order to not end up with
stale frame clocks, which may happen on e.g. hotplugs, monitor layout
changes, or non-optimal frame clocks, which may happen when the parent
used for picking the clock moves to another view, lets listen to
'stage-views-changed' on the actor used for picking the clock too.

Flip flop resize, which is the result of respecting ConfigureNotify
makes test annoyingly racy, as one cannot do
clutter_actor_set_size (stage, 1024, 768);
wait_for_paint (stage);
g_assert_assert (clutter_actor_get_width (stage) == 1024);
The reason for this is any lingering ConfigureNotify event that might
arrive in an inconvenient time in response to some earlier resize.
In order to not risk breaking any current behavior in the X11 CM case
(running as a compositing window manager), only avoid changing the stage
size in response to ConfigureNotify when running nested.

Let's not expose that outside of mutter quite yet; it's not used in
gnome-shell, and to avoid future breakage if it starts to be used, lets
move it to clutter-mutter.h so only mutter and clutter itself can use
it.

This aims to make sure a view and its resources are destroyed when it
should. Using references might keep certain components (e.g frame clock)
alive for too long.
We currently don't take any long lived references to the stage view
anywhere, so this doesn't matter in practice, but this may change, and
will be used by a to be added test case.
