Virtual Kernel Mode Setting (vkms) is a virtual /dev/dri/card* device
not backed by any actual hardware. It's intended for testing purposes,
e.g. to run tests suites with a reproducable setup, or in continuous
integration pipelines.
Currently mutter don't have any tests that can run on top of vkms, but
will eventually get that. To prepare for the ability to do that, and
having said kernel module loaded without causing wierd issues with any
active session, add an udev rule that tells mutter to ignore any vkms
device.
Otherwise, when vkms is loaded, mutter would detect it, assume it's a
regular monitor, configure it as such, thus add a region of the stage
that ends up nowhere, which isn't very helpful. It might also conflict
with running actual tests that need to interact with vkms if the active
session has taken control of it.

With atomic mode setting, commits don't work when CRTCs aren't enabled,
which they aren't when we're power saving. This means the gamma state
fails to being update. To fix night light and for whatever other reason
gamma ramps was changed during power saving by marking the CRTC gamma
state as invalid when leaving power saving, as well as when resuming.
This means that the next frame will append the CRTC gamma state to the
KMS commit.

This GSource is not being properly unref nor the variable holding it
cleared. This on one hand leaks the GSource memory, on the other hand
may trigger warnings in keyboard_repeat() as the source may be
(reentrantly) cleared, yet we don't exit early as
seat_impl->repeat_source is never NULL.

When we set the matrix, we checked the device mapping mode in the main
thread, then passed along the calculated matrix to the input thread for
application. This could however be racy, as the mapping mode is managed
in the input thread. Fix this by sending the unaltered matrix, having
the input thread checking the mapping mode.

The connector state wasn't properly predicted, as it earlied out if
the connector wasn't part of a mode set connector list.
Instead use the old CRTC to check whether it was used in any mode set,
and whether the connector was part of any new mode set, to predict
whether the connector is inactive or active.

When a device only had mode sets which turned off monitors, not enabling
anything, there would be no KMS update created and posted, and the
active monitors would remain on.

On hybrid graphics system, the primary path used to transfer the stage
framebuffer onto the dedicated GPU's video memory preparing for scanout,
is using the dedicated GPU to glBlitFramebuffer() the content from the
iGPU texture onto the scanout buffer.
After we have done this, we reset the current EGL context back to the
one managed by cogl. What we failed to do, however, was to reset the
current EGL context when we inhibited the actual page flip due to having
entered power save mode.
When we later started to paint again, Cogl thought the current EGL
context was still the correct one, but in fact it was the one used for
the iGPU -> dGPU blit, causing various EGL surface errors, and as a side
effect, eventually hitting an assert.
Fix this by making sure we reset to the Cogl managed EGL context also
for this case.

Destroying the EGLSurface frees the underlying container structs. When
we call gbm_surface_release_buffer() with a gbm_surface the EGLSurface
was created from, doing that after the EGLSurface was destroyed results
in attempts to access freed memory. Fix this by releasing any buffer
first, followed by destroying the EGLSurface, and lastly, the
gbm_surface.
This was not a problem prior to CoglOnscreen turning into a GObject, as
in that case, the dispose-chain was not setup correctly, and the
EGLSurface destruction was done in the native backend implementation.
This also changes a g_return_if_fail() to a g_warn_if_fail(), as if we
hit the unexpected case, we still need to call up to the parent dispose
vfunc to not cause critical issues.

It's handled by CoglOnscreenEgl's dispose() implementation. It was
failed to be invoked in the past because the old non-GObject web of
vtables were not setup correctly, meaning the old generic EGL layer of
the CoglOnscreen de-init was never invoked.
When the type inheritence was cleaned up, this mistake was not cleaned
up, so do that now.

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.

The intel DRM driver is known for not being able to handle multi head
setups when KMS modifiers are enabled, due to the implicitly selected
modifiers, while being more suitable for single head setups, cause
bandwidth issues when a certain number of monitor times resolution and
refresh rate is configured.
We don't yet support automatically finding a combination of modifiers
that work, and have because of this disabled KMS modifiers unless the
driver actually needs it.
Lets flip this configuration the other way around, changing the current
udev rule to decide wen to *disable* KMS modifier support, as it so that
only the Intel driver has this problem, while on the other hand, there
several drivers that requires modifiers to function at all.

The input thread is in deep water doing the meta_is_*() check itself,

This eliminates the need for any render node or device nodes, thus can
be used without any graphics hardware available at all, or with a
graphics driver without any render node available.
The surfaceless mode currently requires EGL_KHR_no_config_context to
configure the initial EGL display.
This also means we can enable the native backend tests in CI, as it
should work without any additional privileges.

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.

With this commit, it's possible to run mutter without being DRM master.
It's not yet possible to add virtual monitors, but one can for example
already add virtual input devices.
This currently doesn't try to hook up to any logind session, thus will
not have a real seat assigned. Currently it's hard coded to "seat0".
Part-of: <https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/-/merge_requests/1698>
Currently our only entry point for DRM devices is MetaKms*, but in order
to run without being DRM master, we cannot use /dev/dri/card*, nor can
we be either of the existing MetaKmsImplDevice implementation (legacy
KMS, and atomic KMS), as they both depend on being DRM master.
Thus to handle running without being DRM master (i.e. headless), add a
"dummy" MetaKmsImplDevice implementation, that doesn't do any mode
setting at all, and that switches to operate on the render node, instead
of the card node itself.
This means we still use the same GBM code paths as the regular native
backend paths, except we never make use of any CRTC backed onscreen
framebuffers.
Eventually, this "dummy" MetaKmsImplDevice will be replaced separating
"KMS" device objects from "render" device objects, but that will require
more significant changes. It will, however, be necessary for e.g. going
from being headless, only having access to a render node, to turning
into a real session, with a seat, being DRM master, and having access to
a card node.
This is currently not hooked up, but will be in a later commit.

Add a flag to MetaSeatNative and MetaSeatImpl that tells it not to
attempt to create a libinput context. This is intended to be used when
mutter is to run headless, as in without any input devices other than
virtual ones.

Make it possible to pass --headless as a command line argument in order
to turn the native backend "headless". This currently doesn't do
anything, but the intention is that it should not use logind nor KMS,
and work completely headless with only virtual outputs.

With commit 7d78768809 we switched to
storing pointer coordinates in MetaInputDeviceNative instead of
ClutterInputDevice, and while we had set the coordinates of the
ClutterInputDevice in ClutterStage when queueing an event, we now set
the MetaInputDeviceNative coordinates in new_absolute_motion_event().
Here a small mistake snuck in: new_absolute_motion_event() only
translates the coordinates of the event, but we call
meta_input_device_native_set_coords() using the x and y variables
(which remain untranslated), so now the input device coordinates are no
longer translated.
Fix that by translating the coordinates of the x and y variables in case
we're we handling a tablet/stylus event instead of only translating the
event coordinates.

With commit c985753442 the support for
multiple hardware cursors broke, but those were never properly supported
anyway as we usually assume there's only one hardware cursor around.
With the introduction of the KMS thread in the future, we'll only have
one KMS cursor that gets updated directly from the input thread. So
apart from the fact that it never really makes sense to have two cursors
visible, in this new model having multiple cursors won't work anyway.
So make the cursor we show for stylii a software cursor again.
Eventually the plan is to make the input device that's driving the KMS
cursor interchangeable, so that we can always use hardware cursors.
This reverts commit 165b7369c8.
