We should use the Xkb API to query the direction of the key map,
depending on the group. To get a valid result we need to go over
the Unicode equivalents of the key symbols for each group, so we
should cache the result.
The code used to query and cache the key map direction is taken
from GDK.

As x11 considers num lock and scroll lock to be modifiers, code that
checks for an exact modifier combination will fail if naively done when
num lock or scroll lock are turned on. Applications that want to ignore
these modifiers will need to use XKB to manually mask out the modifier
state.
As it is very unlikely that applications will want to care about the
state of num lock or scroll lock for key press/key release events, mask
out the num lock and scroll lock keys automatically.

We still use XKeycodeToKeysym() in a fallback path in case we're not
running on a decent enough system; XKeycodeToKeysym() is deprecated as
of version 1.12 of the X server, but since I don't want to copy a bunch
of code from GDK or, god forbid, from Xlib, for a fallback path, it's
probably more reasonable to just silence the compiler warnings - at
least until we can drop all the X compatibility crap, and just use
modern, or semi-modern, API.
In the future, we want event translators to be the way to handle events
in backends. For this reason, they should be a part of the base abstract
ClutterBackend class, and not an X11-only concept.
Use both the MappingNotify event and the XKB XkbMapNotify event, if
we're compiled with XKB support.
This change is also useful for making ClutterKeymapX11 an event
translator and let it deal with XKB events internally like we do for
stage and input events.

The x11 backend exposes a lot of symbols that are meant to only be used
when implementing a subclassed backend, like the glx and eglx ones.
The uninstalled headers are also filled with cruft declarations of
functions long since removed.
Let's try to clean up this mess.
This adds a wrapper macro to clutter-private that will use
g_object_notify_by_pspec if it's compiled against a version of GLib
that is sufficiently new. Otherwise it will notify by the property
name as before by extracting the name from the pspec. The objects can
then store a static array of GParamSpecs and notify using those as
suggested in the documentation for g_object_notify_by_pspec.
Note that the name of the variable used for storing the array of
GParamSpecs is obj_props instead of properties as used in the
documentation because some places in Clutter uses 'properties' as the
name of a local variable.
Mose of the classes in Clutter have been converted using the script in
the bug report. Some classes have not been modified even though the
script picked them up as described here:
json-generator:
We probably don't want to modify the internal copy of JSON
behaviour-depth:
rectangle:
score:
stage-manager:
These aren't using the separate GParamSpec* variable style.
blur-effect:
win32/device-manager:
Don't actually define any properties even though it has the enum.
box-layout:
flow-layout:
Have some per-child properties that don't work automatically with
the script.
clutter-model:
The script gets confused with ClutterModelIter
stage:
Script gets confused because PROP_USER_RESIZE doesn't match
"user-resizable"
test-layout:
Don't really want to modify the tests

If we have XKB support then we should be using it to turn on the
detectable auto-repeat; this allows avoiding the peeking trick
that emulates it inside the event handling code.
