Introduce MetaSettings and add the settings managed by MetaBackend into
the new object. These settings include: experimental-features and UI
scaling factor.

Instead of using a environment variable, add a new 'experimental
feature' gsetting keyword "monitor-config-manager" that enables the use
of the new MetaMonitorConfigManager. This commit also makes it possible
to switch between the two systems without restarting mutter.
The D-Bus API is disabled when the experimental feature is not enabled,
and clients trying to access it will get a access-denied error in
response. A new property 'IsExperimentalApiEnabled' is added to let the
D-Bus client know whether it is possible to use the experimental API or
not.

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).

Logical monitors in a configuration must be adjecent to each other,
meaning there will be at least one pixel long side touching some other
logical monitor.
The exception to this is when there is only one logical monitor, which
cannot be adjecent to any other.

Don't let a dummy option context consume the arguments; just let the
GLib test suite do it. It'll handle the basic command line arguments
and allow doing things such as specifying what test to run.

Since mutter was changed to be D-Bus activatable, the test cases has not
been working when running from inside a GNOME Wayland session. This
commit makes the test work again by ensuring the tests run in a nested
mutter instance.

Separate from meta-test-runner which runs metatests testing window
manager operations, a new test program (mutter-unit-tests) is
introduced. This is meant to run unit test like tests on various units
in mutter.
An initial test testing the order of MetaLater callback invokation was
added.
