This function can be used to trigger changes depending on the device type
that is currently emitting the events. So far, it is used to switch cursor
visibility on/off on touchscreen interaction.
A "last-device-updated" signal has also been added, in order allow hooking
other behavior changes (eg. OSK) when the last device changes.

This object internally keeps track of the relevant input configuration,
and goes through its vmethods in order to apply the configuration on the
backend-specific devices.
So far, only mouse/touchpad settings are actually attached to GSettings
changes. ::set_matrix(), meant for tablets/touchscreens, is not hooked
yet.
One caveat is that meta_input_settings_create() may return NULL if the
backend does not own the windowing system (wayland nested on X11 being
the one case), and thus device settings can't be changed freely.

We'll need this in the wayland frontend to send a modifiers event to
clients.
Note that on X11 this isn't needed because key events include the
group index encoded in modifier state. If we ever want to make the
wayland frontend work with the X11 backend we'll handle it then.

Setting the scaling factor immediately after calling clutter_init()
avoids creating the stage at one size, then later resizing it to
a different size.

If we add device 2, then add device 254, then remove device 254, then
the max device ID will be 253. Scan through all the devices again on
removal to calculate a new max device ID.
Rather than have the DBus code control this, move this into
MetaBackend. This also lets us destroy idle monitors when appropriate,
rather than leaking them forever.
This allows creating the stage much earlier than it otherwise would have
been. Our initialization sequence has always been a bit haphazard, with
first the MetaBackend created, then the MetaDisplay, and inside of that,
the MetaScreen and MetaCompositor.
Refactor this out so that the MetaBackend creates the Clutter
stage. Besides the clarity of early initialization, we now have much
easier access to the stage, allowing us to use it for things such as
key focus and beyond.
These methods allow us to set and get xkbcommon keymaps as well as
locking a specific layout in a layout group.
With this, we introduce dependencies on xkeyboard-config, xkbfile,
xkbcommon-x11 and a libX11 new enough to have xcb support.

This reverts commit 3b85e4b2b9.
This breaks touch support; reverting would break wayland
(is what this patch tried to fix; we should find a better solution
that works on both).
This makes Alt+F7 / Alt+F8 work respectively under X11 nested mode.
For the native backend implementation, we'll need a special Clutter
function, so don't implement that for now.
