In profilers with a timeline or flame graph views it is a very common
scenario that a span name must be displayed in an area too short to fit
it. In this case, profilers may implement automatic shortening to show
the most important part of the span name in the available area. This
makes it easier to tell what's going on without having to zoom all the
way in.
The current trace span names in Mutter don't really follow any system
and cannot really be shortened automatically.
The Tracy profiler shortens with C++ in mind. Consider an example C++
name:
SomeNamespace::SomeClass::some_method(args)
The method name is the most important part, and the arguments with the
class name will be cut if necessary in the order of importance.
This logic makes sence for other languages too, like Rust. I can see it
being implemented in other profilers like Sysprof, since it's generally
useful.
Hence, this commit adjusts our trace names to look like C++ and arrange
the parts of the name in the respective order of importance.

Scoped traces are less error prone, and they can still be ended
prematurely if needed (this commit makes that work). The only case this
doesn't support is starting a trace inside a scope but ending outside,
but this is pretty unusual, plus we have anchored traces for a limited
variation of that.

Group all the three config files from clutter/cogl/meta into one
and also remove unnused configurations and replace duplicated ones
This also fixes Cogl usage of HAS_X11/HAS_XLIB to match the expected
build options

Flip the switch in using MetaWindowDrag, leaving display grab
ops and a bunch other code unused. Some places checked the grab op
and/or window in complex ways, others just checked for grab existence
and should now look for clutter ones, and others already were already
doing this in addition.

Since the frames are now rendered by a separate process, we no longer
can guarantee at this point that all updates were handled. Engaging
in a new synchronous resize operation will again freeze the actor,
so sometimes we are left with a not-quite-current buffer for the
frame+window surface.
In order to ensure that the right changes made it onscreen, delay
this next synchronous resize step until the moment the surface was
repainted. This avoids those glitches, while still ensuing the
resize operation ends up in sync with the pointer.

Store the alarms in a different hashtable, and look up the MetaSyncCounter
right away. It so far avoids the MetaWindow middle man, but will also be
simpler when each window can possibly have more than one active alarms.

This helper struct takes care of the handling of requests and alarms
in order to satisfy NET_WM_SYNC_REQUEST. It will be necessary to
decouple rendering of windows and frames in future commits, so each
window may need its own synchronization and accounting.
