65a6c4c361 compositor: Add support for direct scanout of Wayland surfaces
Try to bypass compositing if there is a fullscreen toplevel window with
a buffer compatible with the primary plane of the monitor it is
fullscreen on. Only non-mirrored is currently supported; as well as
fullscreened on a single monitor. It should be possible to extend with
more cases, but this starts small.

It does this by introducing a new MetaCompositor sub type
MetaCompositorNative specific to the native backend, which derives from
MetaCompositorServer, containing functionality only relevant for when
running on top of the native backend.

dc4fe780f7 display: Initialize MetaCompositor in two steps
MetaCompositor is the place in mutter that manages the higher level
state of compositing, such as handling what happens before and after
paint. In order for other units that depend on having a compositor
instance active, but should be initialized before the X11 implementation
of MetaCompositor registers as a X11 compositing manager, split the
initialization of compositing into two steps:

 1) Instantiate the object - only construct the instance, making it
    possible for users to start listening to signals etc
 2) Manage - this e.g. establishes the compositor as the X11 compositing
    manager and similar things.

This will enable us to put compositing dependent scattered global
variables into a MetaCompositor owned object.

For now, compositor management is internally done by calling a new
`meta_compositor_do_manage()`, as right now we can't change the API of
`meta_compositor_manage()` as it is public. For the next version, manual
management of compositing will removed from the public API, and only
managed internally.

0db38c4999 compositor: Let MetaDisplay choose the correct compositor type
A base type shouldn't know about sub types, so let MetaDisplay make
the correct choice of what type of MetaCompositor it should create. No
other semantical changes introduced.

984aad4b86 compositor: Move out X11 compositing code into sub type
Introduce MetaCompositorX11, dealing with being a X11 compositor, and
MetaCompositorServer, being a compositor while also being the display
server itself, e.g. a Wayland display server.
