This commit makes it possible to configure logical monitor scale also
when running on top of an X11 server using Xrandr. An extra property
'requires-globla-scale' is added to the D-Bus API is added to instruct
a configuration application to only allow setting a global logical
monitor scale.
This is needed to let gsd-xsettings use the configured state to set a
XSettings state that respects the explicit monitor configuration.

Keep track of the logical monitor transform. When a logical monitor is
transformed, all of its monitors are also transformed in the same way.
A logical monitor can either be transformed on the CRTC level, or using
an offscreen intermediate buffer. In both cases will the logical
monitor be transformed, but only in the latter will the view be
transformed.
MetaCrtcs::transform currently does not represent whether the CRTC is
configured to be transformed or not; only when the backend can handle
it does it correctly correspond to the actual CRTC configuration. This
is intended to change with MetaMonitorConfigManager.

This commit adds support for rendering onto enlarged per logical
monitor framebuffers, using the scaled clutter stage views, for HiDPI
enabled logical monitors.
This works by scaling the mode of the monitors in a logical monitors by
the scale, no longer relying on scaling the window actors and window
geometry for making windows have the correct size on HiDPI monitors.
It is disabled by default, as in automatically created configurations
will still use the old mode. This is partly because Xwayland clients
will not yet work good enough to make it feasible.
To enable, add the 'scale-monitor-framebuffer' keyword to the
org.gnome.mutter.experimental-features gsettings array.
It is still possible to specify the mode via the new D-Bus API, which
has been adapted.
The adaptations to the D-Bus API means the caller need to be aware of
how to position logical monitors on the stage grid. This depends on the
'layout-mode' property that is used (see the DisplayConfig D-Bus
documentation).

Split up logical monitor cration into derived (when derived from
current underlying configuration) and non-derived (when creating from a
logical monitor configuration). This avoids that type of logic in the
logical monitor creation function.

Operate on MetaMonitor's instead of MetaOutput's, as the latter may be
only a subset of an actual "monitor" when referring to the physical
computer equipment.

Don't try to mirror the physical dimension, since that's a property of
one of the monitors, not of the logical monitor. Callers are changed to
deal with choosing the monitor to represent the logical monitor.

Don't deal with adding/removing tiled Xrandr monitors in the generic
backend, but leave it to the Xrandr backend. The tiled monitor will
itself notify the backend when such a monitor is added and removed.
Tiled Xrandr monitors are now based no MetaMonitor instead of
MetaLogicalMonitor. This means that mirrored tiled monitors will now be
represented correctly.

Instead of using crtcs and outputs to generate logical monitors, use
the ready made monitor abstraction that hides irrelevant things such as
monitor tiling etc.
