When the X11 display is actually XWayland there's no point to delay the
compositor selection, given that mutter itself is the compositor and
doing this may cause the first X11 client that starts not to receive the
right information (and in some cases misbehave).
Since some toolkits are not handling the compositor selection changes
properly at later times, let's make their life easier by just
initializing the selection as early as the other X11 properties, given
that in this case there's nothing to replace.

When a client (either Wayland or X11) is started, the window activation
will update the cursor to the "busy" cursor.
Mutter will then set the X11 cursor on the X11 root window to match that
so that X11 applications which do not explicitly set a cursor inherit
from that default (busy) cursor.
Updating the X11 cursor too often can hammer the X11 connection and
cause a deadlock with Xwayland.
Reload the X11 cursor in a later handler to avoid that issue.

Do the few remaining things that GDK is doing for us:
- Open and close the X11 Display
- Set up a GSource on the Display FD to handle events
- Allocate and free the content of XGenericEventCookie,
to "unroll" the few XInput2 events that Mutter still
does handle.
And remove the GdkDisplay we've so long relied on.

From reading the comment in the top of the file, not for the first
time. Keep our own error handler and maintain our own list of
failable x11 sequences in MetaX11Display, so we can move away from
GTK's.

This API will be used by GNOME Shell to handle X11 events
in the relevant places, as a substitute to gdk_window_add_filter().
It is ATM still a bit ironic, since the Mutter X11 event handler
is itself a GdkFilterFunc, but it may move away from that eventually.

On X11, the stage itself is backed by an XWindow, and moving the
input focus elsewhere will bypass any Clutter-level grabs.
This effectively allows newly opened windows to steal the focus
from gnome-shell itself, which is clearly undesirable. To prevent
that, only allow moving the X11 focus to a Window when no grab is
in place, just like commit 50e89e376 did for the stage focus.
But particularly the updating of x11_display->focus_xwindow is not
prevented. Since it's more consistent to the MetaDisplay/MetaX11Display
dual focus tracking and across Wayland/X11 backends, ensure the X11
input focus is actually set on the last focus Window after the
grabs are gone and windows became interactable again.

This does nothing wrt making race conditions shorter in the

On the path towards clear ownership chains and always using them to find

Replace the in-process implementation of frames with the external
frames client.
When a client window is created and managed by Mutter, Mutter will
determine whether it is a window that requires decorations and
hint the creation of a frame for it by setting the _MUTTER_NEEDS_FRAME
property on the client window.
After the frames client created a window that has the _MUTTER_FRAME_FOR
property, Mutter will proceed to reparent the client window on the
frame window, and show them as a single unit.
Rendering and event handling on the frame window will be performed by
the external client, Mutter is still responsible for everything else,
namely resizing client and frame window in synchronization, and
managing updates on the MetaWindowActor.
In order to let the frame be managed by the external client, Mutter
needs to change the way some properties are forwarded to the client
and/or frame windows. Some properties are necessary to keep propagating
to the client window only, some others need to happen on the frame
window now, and some others needs to be propagated on both so they
are synchronized about the behavior.
Also, some events that were previously totally unexpected in frame
windows are now susceptible to happen, so must be allowed now.
MetaFrame in src/core/frame.c now acts as the wrapper of foreign
windows created by the frames client, from the Mutter side. Location,
size, and lifetime are still largely in control of Mutter, some
details like visible/invisible borders are obtained from the client
instead (through the _MUTTER_FRAME_EXTENTS and _GTK_FRAME_EXTENTS
properties, respectively).

mutter needs GDK to use the x11 backend. It already calls
gdk_set_allowed_backends ("x11") for this purpose; however, if
GDK_BACKEND=wayland (or any other non-x11 backend possibly) happened to
be in the environment, GDK would fail to initialize at all. This would
result in mutter not registering as X11 window manager, and all X11
clients hanging.
Big thanks to Olivier Fourdan for figuring this out!
v2:
* Restore original value of GDK_BACKEND environment variable after
initializing GDK.

In the past, barries were added to the window management X11 display
instance window table, and then special cased when iterating over the
list.
Since then, barriers, which are really part of the backend, has stopped
being added to the window hash table, instead being managed by the
backend. Lets clean up the left-over special casing that is no longer
needed.

Prior to this commit, barriers were created with a MetaDisplay pointer,
despite being entities related and owned by the backend. In the X11
case, it was also not hooked up to the backend X11 connection, but the
clutter one, meaning for example that the logic was active (but dormant)
also for the Xwayland connection.
Fix this by moving X11 barrier management and event processing fully to
the backend. Also replace passing a display pointer with passing a
backend pointer. Keep the display pointer around for a release, but mark
it as deprecated.

With Xwayland on demand, a number of maintenance X11 applications need
to be run first, before Xwayland starts accepting requests from the
normal clients, as soon as the WM_S0 selection is acquired by mutter.
On startup, mutter also sets a number of X11 properties that can be
queried by X11 clients.
Unfortunately, mutter acquires the WM_S0 selection before setting those
properties, so mutter and the first regular X11 client will race on
startup.
As a result, the X11 properties set by mutter on startup may not be
available to the very first X11 client when Xwayland starts.
To avoid that issue, make sure to take the WM_S0 selection last when
opening the display.

meta_window_(un)queue() was implemented with global arrays in window.c
that managed MetaLater handle IDs and lists of window queues. In order
to rely less on scattered static variables and making it clearer that
we're dealing with per display window management and not something
specific to a single window, move the window resize/calc-showing queue
management to MetaDisplay.

We setup Xwayland in an early phase of the X11 display, before we had a
MetaX11Display, and teared down in a couple of places happening when
tearing down the Xwayland integration if the X server died or
terminated. It was a bit hard to follow what happened and when it
happened. Attempt to clean this up a bit, with things being structured
as follows:
* Early during X11 display connection setup, only setup the rudimentary
X11 hooks, being the libX11 error callbacks, and adding the local
user to XHost.
* Move "initialize Xwayland component" code to a new
'x11-display-setup' signal handler. Things setup here are cleaned up
in the 'x11-display-closing' handler.
* Connect to 'x11-display-setup' and 'x11-display-closing' up front,
and stay connected to these two.

gnome-shell has this hack where it sets the environment variable
"NO_AT_BRIDGE" to "1" before calling meta_init() and then unsets it
after meta_init() returns.
This variable being set to "1" will then cause the ATK bridge in
at-spi2-gtk to fail to load, which GTK then ignores. This is on purpose,
since accessibility is supposed to be done done by GNOME Shell via
Clutter, not via GTK.
The problem is that, now, by default, setting "NO_AT_BRIDGE" to
"1" during meta_init() only has the desired effect on an X11 session,
where we always connect to the X11 server on startup (i.e. during
meta_init()). With Xwayland on-demand, we do not attempt to create the
GDK display during meta_init(), thus this hack falls apart.
Since there are no real altenatives to this hack, just move it to
mutter, which have a better idea when GDK displays are created or not.
