The current GNOME Shell Alt-F2 restart looks very messy and also
provides no indication to the user what is going on. We need to
restart the compositor to switch in and out of stereo mode, so
add a framework for doing this more cleanly:
Additions:
meta_restart(): restarts the compositor with a message
MetaDisplay::show-restart-message: signal the embedding
shell to show a message
MetaDisplay::restart: signal the embedding shell to restart
itself.
meta_is_restart(): indicates whether the current instance is a
restart so we can suppress login animations.
A helper program meta-restart-helper holds the composite overlay
window up during the restart to avoid visual artifacts.

These just spam up our logs, and they aren't getting fixed any time
soon for a variety of reasons. Just disable them to ensure that really
important warnings get noticed and fixed.
This object tracks both touch sequences happening on the stage and
gestures attached to the stage actor. When a gesture emits
::gesture-begin, All triggering sequences and future ones will be
marked as "accepted" by the compositor, and events will be listened
for meanwhile there are active gestures.
If a sequence goes unclaimed for a short time, it will be
automatically "denied", and punted to the client or shell element
below.
Avoid populating *_VERSION constants through cflags in pkg-config-file
which could be overridden by the project using it. Properly prefix the
defines with META_ to make gi-scanner happy.
Clutter touch events are translated into events being sent down
the interface resource, with the exception of FRAME/CANCEL events,
which are handled directly via an evdev event filter.
The seat now announces invariably the WL_SEAT_CAPABILITY_TOUCH
capability, this should be eventually updated as devices come and
go.
The creation of MetaWaylandTouchSurface structs is dynamic, attached
to the lifetime of first/last touch on the client surface, and only
if the surface requests the wl_touch interface. MetaWaylandTouchInfo
structs are created to track individual touches, and are locked to
a single MetaWaylandTouchSurface (the implicit grab surface) determined
on CLUTTER_TOUCH_BEGIN.

This uses David Herrmann's new logind sessions interface to retrieve
fds for input devices, rather than using a custom setuid helper to do
the management. This vastly simplifies the interface.
This requires systemd v210, at least.

Right now this just has all of the files in one directory. We'll
be introducing more structure to this in the future, and build
a proper backend system.
I want the MetaCursorTracker to mostly be about retrieving cursor
information. Start moving the code that loads cursor images to a
new file, MetaCursor. Eventually, MetaCursorTracker's APIs will
all take MetaCursorReferences, and we can have a clean backend
split here.
display.c is getting a bit crowded. Move most of the handling
out to another file, events.c.
The long-term goal is to have generic event handling here, with
backend-specific handling for the types of windows and such.
