Interpolating between two transformations expressed using a 3D matrix
can be achieved by decomposing the matrices into their transformations
and do a simple numeric interpolation between the initial and final
states, like we do for other data types.
Luckily for us, the CSS Transforms specification from the W3C provides
the decomposition algorithm, using the "unmatrix" code taken from the
book "Graphics Gems II, edited by Jim Arvo".
Once the matrices have been decomposed, we can simply interpolate the
transformations, and re-apply them onto the result matrix, using the
facilities that Clutter provides for interpolating between two known
GTypes.
As a convenience for the C API.
Language bindings should already be using the GValue variants.
This commit also moves the custom progress functions out of the
clutter-interval.c, as they are meant to be generic interpolation
functions and not ClutterInterval-specific.
The ClutterGeometry type is a poor substitute of cairo_rectangle_int_t,
with unsigned integers for width and height to complicate matters.
Let's remove the internal usage of ClutterGeometry and switch to the
rectangle type from Cairo.

The G_CONST_RETURN define in GLib is, and has always been, a bit fuzzy.
We always used it to conform to the platform, at least for public-facing
API.
At first I assumed it has something to do with brain-damaged compilers
or with weird platforms where const was not really supported; sadly,
it's something much, much worse: it's a define that can be toggled at
compile-time to remove const from the signature of public API. This is a
truly terrifying feature that I assume was added in the past century,
and whose inception clearly had something to do with massive doses of
absynthe and opium — because any other explanation would make the
existence of such a feature even worse than assuming drugs had anything
to do with it.
Anyway, and pleasing the gods, this dubious feature is being
removed/deprecated in GLib; see bug:
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=644611
Before deprecation, though, we should just remove its usage from the
whole API. We should especially remove its usage from Cally's internals,
since there it never made sense in the first place.
Instead of unconditionally combining the modelview and projection
matrices and then iterating each of the vertices to call
cogl_matrix_transform_point for each one in turn we now only combine the
matrices if there are more than 4 vertices (with less than 4 vertices
its less work to transform them separately) and we use the new
cogl_vertex_{transform,project}_points APIs which can hopefully
vectorize the transformations.
Finally the perspective divide and viewport scale is done in a separate
loop at the end and we don't do the spurious perspective divide and
viewport scale for the z component.
OpenGL < 4.0 only supports integer based viewports and internally we
have a mixture of code using floats and integers for viewports. This
patch switches all viewports throughout clutter and cogl to be
represented using floats considering that in the future we may want to
take advantage of floating point viewports with modern hardware/drivers.
This splits out all the clutter_paint_volume code from clutter-actor.c
into clutter-paint-volume.c. Since clutter-actor.c and
clutter-paint-volume.c both needed the functionality of
_fully_transform_vertices, this function has now been moved to
clutter-utils.c as _clutter_util_fully_transform_vertices.
The P_() macro adds a context for the property nick and blurb. In order
to make xgettext recognize it, we need to drop glib-gettexize inside the
autogen.sh script and ship a modified Makefile.in.in with Clutter.
Since using addresses that might change is something that finally
the FSF acknowledge as a plausible scenario (after changing address
twice), the license blurb in the source files should use the URI
for getting the license in case the library did not come with it.
Not that URIs cannot possibly change, but at least it's easier to
set up a redirection at the same place.
As a side note: this commit closes the oldes bug in Clutter's bug
report tool.

* clutter/clutter-alpha.h:
* clutter/clutter-alpha.c: Add a data parameter to
the ClutterAlphaFunc; add a data+destroy parameter
to clutter_alpha_set_func() and to clutter_alpha_new(),
and turned the latter into clutter_alpha_new_full();
add a simple, empty constructor clutter_alpha_new().
These changes makes writing bindings a tad more easy,
as bindings require passing their own functions in
order to call the real alpha function.
* clutter/clutter-behaviour.h: Clean up the header.
* clutter/clutter-behaviours.[ch]:
* clutter/clutter-behaviour-opacity.[ch]:
* clutter/clutter-behaviour-path.[ch]:
* clutter/clutter-behaviour-scale.[ch]: Split the
ClutterBehaviourPath, ClutterBehaviourOpacity and
ClutterBehaviourScale into their own files as they
have been growing a bit. Fix ClutterBehaviourPath
API.
* clutter/clutter-media.h: Remove the commented
"metadata_available" signal: gtk-doc chokes up on that.
* clutter/clutter-timeline.h:
* clutter/clutter-timeline.c: Remove the useless
ClutterTimelineAlphaFunc signature; add missing accessor
methods for the properties; clean up a bit.
* clutter/clutter-util.h:
* clutter/clutter-util.c: Remove unneeded function
clutter_util_can_create_texture().
* clutter/clutter-feature.h: Sync the name of
clutter_feature_get_all() with the name declared
in clutter-feature.h.
* clutter/Makefile.am:
* clutter/clutter.h: Update.
* examples/behave.c: Update to the new ClutterAlpha
constructor.
* examples/super-oh.c: Use the right pointer and avoid
the compiler making a fuss about it.
* clutter/clutter-stage.c:
* clutter/clutter-stage.h:
Add clutter_stage_set_xwindow_foreign() call
* clutter/clutter-util.c:
* clutter/clutter-util.h:
Add some X error traps
* examples/super-oh.c:
Toy with us of new clutter_stage_set_xwindow_foreign() for
optional screensaver functionality.
