The pixel clock determines how fast pixels can be processed. When adding
non-native common modes, avoid adding modes that exceed the max pixel
clock frequency of the native modes. Avoiding these avoids potential
mode setting failures where the GPU can't handle the modeline since the
configured pixel clock is too fast. This replaces the "bandwidth" check
which used the number of pixels and refresh rate, which wasn't enough to
avoid incompatible modes.

Privacy screen events on connector are handled as notification events
that won't cause any monitors reconfiguration but will emit monitors
changed on DBus, so that the new value can be fetched.
We monitor the hardware state so that we can also handle the case of
devices with hw-switchers only.
In case a software state is available it means we can also support
changing the state, and if so expose the state as unlocked.

Right now we often add a duplicate fallback mode that's almost
identical to the native mode. This adds unnecessary clutter to
UIs, thus filter out such modes.
In order to keep the code small, use `MetaCrtcModeInfo` directly
instead of recalculating the values. And to keep consistency, do
the same in the loop above.

If there was only a single mode, add the common modes to provide options
to select other resolutions than the built in default. This avoids
issues where the connector listed multiple supported modes, but where
the common modes added would exceed the possible bandwidth. We could
probably make an attempt to filter out more modes from the common mode
list to avoid these issues, but it's likely that the driver already
lists suitable modes, meaning there is no point in adding the common
modes.
The common modes were initially added[0] to add modes to connectors with
a single bundled mode, so we shouldn't regress the original bug fix.

Virtual monitors are monitors that isn't backed by any monitor like
hardware. It would typically be backed by e.g. a remote desktop service,
or a network display.
It is currently only supported by the native backend, and whether the
X11 backend will ever see virtual monitors is an open question. This
rest of this commit message describes how it works under the native
backend.
Each virutal monitor consists of virtualized mode setting components:
* A virtual CRTC mode (MetaCrtcModeVirtual)
* A virtual CRTC (MetaCrtcVirtual)
* A virtual connector (MetaOutputVirtual)
In difference to the corresponding mode setting objects that represents
KMS objects, the virtual ones isn't directly tied to a MetaGpu, other
than the CoglFramebuffer being part of the GPU context of the primary
GPU, which is the case for all monitors no matter what GPU they are
connected to. Part of the reason for this is that a MetaGpu in practice
represents a mode setting device, and its CRTCs and outputs, are all
backed by real mode setting objects, while a virtual monitor is only
backed by a framebuffer that is tied to the primary GPU. Maybe this will
be reevaluated in the future, but since a virtual monitor is not tied to
any GPU currently, so is the case for the virtual mode setting objects.
The native rendering backend, including the cursor renderer, is adapted
to handle the situation where a CRTC does not have a GPU associated with
it; this in practice means that it e.g. will not try to upload HW cursor
buffers when the cursor is only on a virtual monitor. The same applies
to the native renderer, which is made to avoid creating
MetaOnscreenNative for views that are backed by virtual CRTCs, as well
as to avoid trying to mode set on such views.

This makes "power save" (i.e. when you make a monitor go into power save
mode, or make it come out of power save mode), a per device action when
turning on power saving (power save being set to 'off'), and implicitly
handled when turning off power saving (power save being set to 'on')
when doing a mode set.
This is needed as with atomic mode setting, the configuration of DPMS
(Display Power Management Signaling), is replaced by directly turning on
or off CRTCs, and via the CRTC drm properties. Thus in order to handle
both with a common API, make that API high level enough for both cases
being covered.

Instead of telling MetaKmsConnector fill a MetaKmsUpdate with connector
property changes, make the update itself aware of the changes, making
the impl side translate that to property changes.

This contains a copy of a drmModeModeInfo, describing a mode. It also
has an unused pointer to the impl device it is associated with. It'll
later be used to get a blob ID for the mode.

Trying to figure out what this comment was actually about, it turns out
that MSC means Media Stream Counter, and as mentioned in an article[0]
is related to DRI3 and the X11 Present extension. Anyway, the comment
has been there raising questions for some years now, I think we can
remove it.

The ID and name are just moved into the instance private, while the rest
is moved to a `MetaCrtcModeInfo` struct which is used during
construction and retrieved via a getter. Opens up the possibility to
add actual sub types.
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/-/merge_requests/1287
Just as with MetaOutput, instead of the home baked "inheritance" system,
using a gpointer and a GDestroyNotify function to keep the what
effectively is sub type details, make MetaCrtc 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.

MetaCrtcInfo and MetaOutputInfo did not represent information about
MetaCrtc and MetaOutput, but the result of the monitor configuration
assignment algorithm, thus rename it to MetaCrtcAssignment and
MetaOutputAssignment.
The purpose for this is to be able to introduce a struct that actually
carries information about the CRTCs and outputs, as retrieved from the
backend implementations.
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/-/merge_requests/1287
That is is_presentation, is_primary, is_underscanning and backlight.
The first three are set during CRTC assignment as they are only valid
when active. The other is set separately, as it is untied to
monitor configuration.

To make it more reliable to distinguish between values that are read
from the backend implementation (which is likely to be irrelevant for
anything but the backend implementation), split out those values (e.g.
layout).
This changes the meaning of what was MetaCrtc::rect, to a
MetaCrtcConfig::layout which is the layout the CRTC has in the global
coordinate space.

This commit introduces, and makes use of, a transactional API used for
setting up KMS state, later to be applied, potentially atomically. From
an API point of view, so is always the case, but in the current
implementation, it still uses legacy drmMode* API to apply the state
non-atomically.
The API consists of various buliding blocks:
* MetaKmsUpdate - a set of configuration changes, the higher level
handle for handing over configuration to the impl backend. It's used to
set mode, assign framebuffers to planes, queue page flips and set
connector properties.
* MetaKmsPlaneAssignment - the assignment of a framebuffer to a plane.
Currently used to map a framebuffer to the primary plane of a CRTC. In
the legacy KMS implementation, the plane assignment is used to derive
the framebuffer used for mode setting and page flipping.
This also means various high level changes:
State, excluding configuring the cursor plane and creating/destroying
DRM framebuffer handles, are applied in the end of a clutter frame, in
one go. From an API point of view, this is done atomically, but as
mentioned, only the non-atomic implementation exists so far.
From MetaRendererNative's point of view, a page flip now initially
always succeeds; the handling of EBUSY errors are done asynchronously in
the MetaKmsImpl backend (still by retrying at refresh rate, but
postponing flip callbacks instead of manipulating the frame clock).
Handling of falling back to mode setting instead of page flipping is
notified after the fact by a more precise page flip feedback API.
EGLStream based page flipping relies on the impl backend not being
atomic, as the page flipping is done in the EGLStream backend (e.g.
nvidia driver). It uses a 'custom' page flip queueing method, keeping
the EGLStream logic inside meta-renderer-native.c.
Page flip handling is moved to meta-kms-impl-device.c from
meta-gpu-kms.c. It goes via an extra idle callback before reaching
meta-renderer-native.c to make sure callbacks are invoked outside of the
impl context.
While dummy power save page flipping is kept in meta-renderer-native.c, the
EBUSY handling is moved to meta-kms-impl-simple.c. Instead of freezing the
frame clock, actual page flip callbacks are postponed until all EBUSY retries
have either succeeded or failed due to some other error than EBUSY. This
effectively inhibits new frames to be drawn, meaning we won't stall waiting on
the file descriptor for pending page flips.

As with CRTC state, variable connector state is now fetched via the
MetaKmsConnector. The existance of a connector state is equivalent of
the connector being connected. MetaOutputKms is changed to fetch
variable connector state via MetaKmsConnector intsead of KMS directly.
The drmModeConnector is still used for constructing the MetaOutputKms to
find properties used for applying configuration.
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/issues/548https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/merge_requests/525
Represents drmModeConnector; both connected and disconnected. Currently
only provides non-changing meta data. MetaOutputKms is changed to use
MetaKmsConnector to get basic metadata, but variable metadata, those
changing depending on what is connected (e.g. physical dimension, EDID,
etc), are still manually retrieved by MetaOutputKms.
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/issues/548https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/merge_requests/525
The 'underscan' property is a drm connector property, not a CRTC
property, so we would never find it. We also didn't advertise support
for the feature, meaning even if it was on the CRTC, Settings wouldn't
know about it.
Fix this by moving the property to where it belongs: in MetaOutputKms,
and properly advertise support for it if the property is found.

We were using the connector_id for the winsys_id, but different
devices could have connectors with the same id. Since we use
winsys_id to uniquely identify outputs, use both the connector
id and the device id to avoid having outputs with the same id.
There seems to be a kernel race when one disconnects an external
monitor connected to a DisplayPort via a USB-C adapter. The race
results in a connector being reported as connected, but without any
modes supported.
This had the side effect that we tried to set a preferred mode to
the first listed mode, but as no modes were available, we instead tried
to dereference the first element of a NULL array, causing a
segmentation fault.
Mitigate this by skipping adding output if no supported modes are
advertised and the output doesn't support scaling, while moving the
fallback path for calculating a preferred output mode to after possibly
adding the common modes, to avoid the unvolentary NULL dereference.

Just like we swap the x and y resolution of the monitor modes when
the panel-orientation requires 90 or 270 degree rotation to compensate,
we should do the same for the width and height in mm of the monitor.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=782294
If a monitor's max resolution is a portrait resolution, then assume it is
a native portrait monitor and add portrait versions of the common modes.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=782294
Some x86 clamshell design devices use portrait tablet LCD panels while
they should use a landscape panel, resoluting in a 90 degree rotated
picture.
Newer kernels detect this and rotate the fb console in software to
compensate. These kernels also export their knowledge of the LCD panel
orientation vs the casing in a "panel orientation" drm_connector property.
This commit adds support to mutter for reading the "panel orientation"
and transparently (from a mutter consumer's pov) fixing this by applying
a (hidden) rotation transform to compensate for the panel orientation.

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.
