Find a surface actor that meets the criteria to drive the refresh
rate for the view. If a new surface actor is found, add a
reference to it and request frame synchronization to be enabled
for the relevant MetaRendererViewNative.
Whenever the surface actor schedules a repaint or an update, and
in case frame synchronization is enabled for the
MetaRendererViewNative, schedule the update to occur "now". This
effectively makes the surface actor's frame rate drive the refresh
rate of the monitor.
If the actor is frozen or destroyed, it is no longer expected to
schedule repaints or updates and should stop driving the refresh
rate.
When there is no surface actor to drive the refresh rate, request
frame synchronization to be disabled for the MetaRendererViewNative.

This makes all stage updates that result from applying the pending
state of a Wayland surface emit an "update-scheduled" signal in the
context of the relevant surface actor.
A common case where an "update-scheduled" signal is needed is
when applying "empty" client commits. In this case a
"repaint-scheduled" signal would not be emitted since the commit
doesn't trigger a repaint. However, it is still important to add
handling for such updates with variable refresh rate when the
releavnt actor is also driving the refresh rate.

This function allows scheduling a stage update in the context of a
surface actor and emit the "update-scheduled" signal. This signal is
similar to "repaint-scheduled", but can be used to be notified of
updates that do not necessarily result in a repaint.
With variable refresh rate, any update potentially affecting the
frame pacing of a surface actor needs to be handled differently
depending on whether that surface actor drives the refresh rate or
not.

Frame synchronization is enabled for a view as long as it's
applicable to be enabled. It is considered applicable if it's both
requested for the onscreen and if the onscreen uses a CRTC which is
configured with a variable refresh rate mode.
When frame synchronization is enabled, it enables both the the variable
scheduling mode of ClutterFrameClock and the variable refresh rate
property for the CRTC.
Changes in the frame synchronization mode are applied asynchronously,
before the next frame is drawn.

Add variable refresh rate output modes for connectors that are VRR
capable when VRR is not disabled for the GPU.
Variable refresh rate output modes are sorted before their fixed
refresh rate counterparts. They are also marked as the preferred mode
for the output between the two.

When VRR is not disabled for a GPU, create two variants of every
display mode: one with fixed refresh rate and another with variable

The variable refresh rate modes are not used yet. They will be used
in a following commit.

This can be used to disable VRR in specific drivers and hardware

Require the "variable-refresh-rate" keyword under the
"experimental-features" gsetting to enable the feature for now.
It would no longer be required once the experience with variable
refresh rate is good enough for general use and handles all common
use cases well.

Use a sufficiently low refresh rate to calculate the CRTC deadline
when variable refresh rate is enabled. This is done to avoid cursor
updates from driving the monitor refresh rate.
It's not great solution and is sometimes not enough, but it avoids
stutter in the main content as a result of cursor movement in most
cases.
The unfortunate downside of this approach is that cursor movement
would usually only update with the main content and would not be
smooth when the main content updates are not frequent enough.
A better solution may use an approach similar to LFC (Low Framerate
Compensation) to insert cursor-only updates between updates of the
main content, but achieving adequate results with an approach of this
nature requires more research and experimentation.

It is not trivial to accurately estimate the expected presentation
time with variable refresh rate, and not doing so only affects debug
prints.
No change in behavior for now because the expected presentation time
is always calculated. A following commit will introduce a case where
it is not.

Add functions to update and monitor the value of the "VRR_ENABLED"
KMS property.
This requires the addition of functions to process CRTC property
updates in both the atomic and the simple KMS backends. The
implementation is similar to the implemention of processing
connector updates.

A new variable scheduling mode is introduced which allows lower
priority updates to be scheduled on a timeout which represents a lower
refresh rate, while allowing high priority updates to be scheduled to
occur as soon as possible.
This mode will be used by following commits to implement
synchronization of page flips to the update rate of specifc surface
actors.
High priorty updates are either scheduled to occur "now" if they
arrive at a rate which is lower than the maximum refresh rate, or
according to the measured maximum render time if they arrive at a
rate which meets or exceeds the maximum refresh rate. This approach
allows achieving low input latency in both scenarios.
Seperate handling for low priority updates is needed to avoid visible
stutter in the content of the surface that drives the refresh rate. An
example for a low priority update is cursor movement when the KMS
deadline timer is disabled.

This is conditionally toggled by grabs on the current key focus depending
on whether the current key focus actor would receive events according
to the grab or not. Which means it's no longer a reliable method for an
actor to know it does have focus, without asking the stage about it.
Avoid this check and ask the stage for the key focus, in order to make
key focus actors able to unset themselves despite the presence of grabs.

Commit d48129f5ee broke the displaying of our own drag cursor during window
drags, as now the window cursor is always used, even during stage grabs
(window grabs are just a kind of stage grab).
To fix it, while not regressing on the intention of the other commit, unset
the MetaWaylandPointer surface in case a window drag is active (instead of
all kinds of grabs) by checking via meta_display_is_grab().

Move the bulk of the implementation inside MetaWaylandPointer

The _MUTTER_FRAME_EXTENTS need to have the correct size before the
window is shown, otherwise the client window size will effectively have
the headarbar height subtracted when initially syncing the frame/client
geometries.
This reverts commit f10b3eac62.
Part-of: <https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/-/merge_requests/3628>
The min height reported by ClutterText when ellipsize and line-wrapping are
enabled was too small to fit the text.
The coordinates from `pango_layout_get_line_extents()` are baseline relative,
so the `y` coordinate means that the highest ascent would be `-y` above the
baseline and height gives the span between the ascent above the baseline and
the descent below it, so `logical_line_rect.y + logical_line_rect.height`
gives us the size of the descent. This is the wrong height to use for the
height of the actor.
The coordinates of the layout extents don't seems to be related to the baseline
and are just for offsets when rendering, that's probably how this bug got
initially introduced.
Therefore, the `y` coordinate from the layout is the correct offset to use,
even though, when looking at `pango_layout_get_extends_internal()`, it appears
that `y` is always set to 0.

QueryDeviceString can successfully return NULL. The convention however
is that when NULL is returned, the error will be set.
This commit makes the returned string an output parameter which allows
us to return the success status and have the error set accordingly.

The convention is that when a function returns FALSE or NULL, the error
will be set. In this file we call set_egl_error but it might not set an
error. Code of the form
if (egl_do_thing (..., &error))
use_error (error);
will crash in those cases.
This commit makes sure we always set the error even if EGL doesn't give
us an error.

We depend on Gio for many introspection features (GSettings, GFile...)
without this we'd end up not having many symbols being exposed.
And errors such as
Warning: Meta: meta_display_add_keybinding: argument settings:
Unresolved type: 'GSettings*'
As per previous commit we now have this dependency implicitly, but still
it's better to make it clearer in case Clutter would drop it.

This is added as a hint so that the caller can optionally use it, e.g.
in the case that a window drag is driven by the mouse. This will be used
to more accurately follow the drag position, other than starting at the
current pointer position.

Pointer constraints obey to logical pointer focus changes, and looking
up the current surface in order to maybe enable them is getting ahead
of itself, since the pointer focus might differ from the current surface
due to other factors (e.g. grabs).
Change the code checking whether constraints should be enabled to again
check the pointer logical focus, this will be influenced by the
MetaWaylandEventInterface mechanism, and correctly reflect the logical
state accounting for those factors.

Currently, we don't handle too well the removal of a MetaWaylandEventInterface
during meta_wayland_event_interface_invalidate_all_focus(), since the
MetaWaylandEventInterface may be freed at an intermediate point in that function
while handling the focus change for all input devices.
Turn this invalidate_all_focus() function into a MetaWaylandInput method, and
always ensure to use the currently effective MetaWaylandEventInterface when
resetting the focus for each device.
This fixes the situation through handling reentrancy naturally, a focus
sync (say, triggered by a grab) would reset a device focus (say, pointer), which
would remove an event interface (say, a pointer constraint), which would
invalidate_all_focus() again underneath using the new effective
MetaWaylandEventInterface. When that is done, the initial invalidate_all_focus()
call would re-apply the same focus to the same currently effective
MetaWaylandEventInterface, resulting in a no-op for the remainder of the function.
