If an actor is being unrealized or otherwise unparented, it's a good
indication that its grabs are now stale and possibly harmful. Ensure
these are dropped when the actor is unparented.
This is now an unlikely event, since there is code to also dismiss
grabs when a visible grabbed actor goes unmapped. But that may be
prevented from happening, or the ordering of circumstances allow a
grab to be created and an actor destroyed without going unmapped
first. This grab dismission on unmap stays as it matches the UI-level
expectatives that an actor must be visible to be grabbed.

If we have a window that match the size (i.e. will pass the "fits
framebuffer" low level check), that doesn't mean it matches the
position. For example, if we have two monitors 2K monitors, with two 2K
sized windows, one on monitor A, and one on monitor both monitor A and
B, overlapping both, if the latter window is above the former, it'll end
up bing scanned out on both if it ends up fitting all the other
requirements.
Fix this by checking that the paint box matches the stage view layout,
as that makes sure the actor we're painting isn't just partially on the
right view.

The source field was removed from ClutterEvent with commit
b644ea1bce because the preferred way of
getting the event actor is now to use the device/sequence actor from the
stage directly.
With crossing events it's not that easy though, as crossing events
explicitly have a source and related actor that doesn't have to be the
same actor as the device actor. Since we kept around the "related" field
there anyway, let's also introduce a "source" field in
ClutterCrossingEvent and return that actor when get_source() is called
on a crossing event.

Just like we did with the ::captured-event signal, add detail to the
::event signal too. At the first glance this might not seem necessary
since there are individual signals like scroll-event or touch-event that
get emitted at the same time, but these don't exist for touchpad gesture
events and others.
As an easy solution for that, just make it possible to use detail on the

When taking the scanout path we still want to clear the
redraw-clip from the stage-view in order to ensure we skip
frames in `handle_frame_clock_frame()` if no new redraw-clip
was recorded.
This was not done previously as the accumulated redraw-clip was
needed for the next repaint, likely under the assumption that
scheduling a scanout repeatedly would be computationally cost-free.
This assumption does not hold in a VRR world.
In order to archive both, an accumulated redraw-clip for the next
paint and frame-skipping during scanout, introduce new API to defer
and accumulate redraw-clips until the next repaint.

This can happen with the native backend if the previous frame clock
dispatch didn't result in any KMS update, e.g. because it was triggered
by an input event, but the HW cursor didn't need updating on the stage
view. (This is likely to happen on some out of multiple stage views,
but might be possible even with a single stage view if the cursor isn't
visible)
We would previously delay next_presentation_time_us by one refresh

Somewhat long overdue... We've been supporting more than a single

In certain edge cases it's currently possible that an actor never
gets a valid allocation and paint volume.
One such case is adding an unmapped, hidden child to an unmapped
cloned parent and then showing the child. This happens currently
e.g. if a Wayland subsurface is added to a already mapped window
while the user is in the overview.
Ensure relayouts in two more such cases.

The notification list in the GNOME Shell calendar popup triggers some
interesting interactions when closing a notification:
- Close button is clicked
- The notification animates to be hidden
- The next notification ends up hovered as a result of the animation
- The notification being hovered sets its close button as non-transparent
and reactive
- The pointer is now again over a close button
At this point the reactiveness change should trigger a repick, so that
the new notification's close button is picked, and future button presses
are directed to it, but we do not handle this situation.
To fix this, handle actors becoming reactive so that if the closest
reactive parent has a pointer, it will be repicked again just in case
the pointer is over the newly reactive actor.

The function that currently invalidates pointers over an specific actor

`clutter_actor_iter_destroy` will try to match up the iterator's `age`
with that of the parent ("root") actor:
```
g_return_if_fail (ri->age == ri->root->priv->age);
```
In a simple actor graph that's completely reasonable but somewhere in the
more complex graph of gnome-shell the parent's `age` was skipping ahead
faster than that of the iterator. This could happen in theory if the
destroy indirectly leads to more children being destroyed than the
iterator has visited.
So there's no evidence of actual corruption, only the age check might
fail in a `clutter_actor_iter_destroy` loop because the age check itself
can't handle all possible valid scenarios.
Since our only mandate is to destroy all children, we can do that reliably
without an iterator and thus without assuming anything about the parent's
`age` counter.

Mutters event filter can prevent events from getting processed by
Clutter, this can also happen for TOUCH_END/CANCEL events. Processing
these events in Clutter is crucial for proper tracking of touch
sequences though, that's because Clutter adds a PointerDeviceEntry to
the stage on a TOUCH_BEGIN *before* going through the event filter, but
removes that entry on a TOUCH_END *after* going through the filter. So
Clutter really needs to see those TOUCH_END events, or else there will
be a stale PointerDeviceEntry on the ClutterStage.
Make sure those TOUCH_END/CANCEL events always get seen by Clutter by
removing the device entry immediately when those get filtered out.
Because there might still be events belonging to this sequence in the
event queue of the stage, we need to flush the queue before removing the
entry, too.

Unfortunately we cannot do this generically since the target of the
button/touch press does matter, e.g. tapping on the OSK, or clicking
the IBus candidates window. These situations should not trigger a
reset.
So be more selective about the situations where button/touch presses
trigger an IM reset, in the case of ClutterText these are still clicks
inside the actor, for Wayland's text-input it is when clicking the
surface that has text_input focus.
For all other situations where clicking anywhere else might make
sense to trigger an IM reset are covered by the focus changing paths,
that also ensure a reset before changing focus between surfaces/actors.

I've overseen quite an important case in commit
98a5cb37d9: Repicking only when actors get
destroyed is not enough, we actually need to repick when actors go
hidden/unmapped.
While we could also listen to notify::mapped just like we listen to
notify::reactive, it seems better to avoid using property notifications
here due to the usage of g_object_freeze/thaw_notify() in ClutterActor.
It can lead to the stage receiving a notify::mapped with mapped = true
for a pointer actor, which really shouldn't happen (just like
notify::reactive with reactive = true shouldn't happen).

clients. Fix it by shuffling things around a bit and letting pointer

There's a bunch of crashes right now where the assertions in
clutter_actor_set_mapped() after calling the map/unmap() vfuncs are
failing. The only way this can happen is by re-entering
clutter_actor_set_mapped() during the map/unmap recursion.
The reason for those crashes is that the shell hides/shows some actors
in response to crossing events and key-focus changes. These in turn get
triggered by the newly introduced ungrabbing of ClutterGrabs when an
actor gets unmapped, which triggers GRAB_NOTIFY crossing events and
key-focus changes.
Since these situations are hardly avoidable (it's a valid use-case to
hide/show something in response to a crossing/key-focus event), catch
the set_mapped() call early while we reenter the mapping machinery and
log a warning instead of crashing.

With the introduction of untrottled event delivery to wayland clients,
we moved the _clutter_event_process_filters() call outside of
_clutter_process_event(). This also moved the processing of event
filters outside of the timespan where the event is added to Clutters
current_event stack, making Clutter.get_current_event() no longer
available to anything happening inside mutters event filter.
One thing that happens in mutters event filter is detecting and
triggering keybindings like the alt-tab switcher. Now the alt-tab
switcher has a special case where it finishes and activates a window
right when the keybinding gets activated, relying on the current event
time as the timestamp to activate the window.
Now since the current event time is no longer available from inside
mutters event filter, we'd pass 0 to meta_window_activate(), causing
mutter to send a notification instead of actually activating the window.
To fix this, also set a current_event for the ClutterContext when going
through event filters, this makes sure Clutter.get_current_event_time()
works when called inside keybinding handlers.

In the right combination of circumstances, and given 2 actors (parent
actor P with an offscreen effect and child actor C), we may have the
following situation happening:
- A redraw is queued on the actor C, actors C and P are marked as
priv->is_dirty and priv->propagated_one_redraw.
- During paint() handling we paint actor P, priv->propagated_one_redraw
is turned off.
- We recurse into child actor C, priv->propagated_one_redraw is turned
off.
- A new redraw is queued on actor C, actors C and P are marked as
priv->is_dirty and priv->propagated_one_redraw.
- The paint() method recurses back, actors C and P get priv->is_dirty
disabled, priv->propagated_one_redraw remains set.
- At this point queueing up more redraws on actor C will not propagate
up, because actor C has priv->propagated_one_redraw set, but the
parent actor P has priv->is_dirty unset, so the offscreen effect will
not get CLUTTER_EFFECT_PAINT_ACTOR_DIRTY and will avoid repainting
actor C.
The end result is that actor C does not redraw again, despite requesting
redraws. This situation eventually resolves itself through e.g. relayouts
on actor P, but may take some time to happen.
In order to fix this, consider actors that did get a further redraw
request still dirty after paint().

The ClutterGestureAction base code would correctly try to cancel a
gesture if it would receive GRAB_NOTIFY leave events (that would indicate
other portions of the actor tree stole input away from the gesture actor),
but it would mistakenly do so only if the gesture was already initiated,
possibly leaving stale point information if the gesture collected input
but didn't initiate yet.
This could be indirectly seen clicking with the mouse on OSK keys with
no motions in between, clicks would accumulate on the swipeTracker
gestures until the trigger point, so the third click could drag the
workspaces.

It does not make sense that the event "source" (aka the target) is
both content and recipient of a message. Not doing so, events become
largely independent of the actor that is receiving/handling an

The distribute_natural_allocation() function was copied over from Gtk to
Clutter 11 years ago with commit e636a0bbce.
Gtk only supports integers sizes in its layout machinery, while Clutter
does everything using floats.
Since this function sets the minimum_size (the size we allocate the
children in the end) to an integer, this means we're implicitly
typecasting floats to integers here, effectively floor()'ing all sizes
that we allocate the box children.
A bug this caused in gnome-shell was that a scrollView (like the one in
the endSessionDialog) was showing scrollbars even though the content
perfectly fit inside the view: Say the content and its scrollView parent
request a size of 63.9 px, but get allocated a size of 63 px by a box
layout. Now the scrollView notices that its allocated size is smaller
than the requested size and thus shows a scrollbar.
So fix that and use floats in distribute_natural_allocation() instead of
integers, as we do everywhere else in the layout machinery.

This looks like a relic of glReadPixels-based picking, the pointer

Instead, always update all devices that are inside the view after
relayouts, the tracking on the need for that update is now done
on each ClutterStageView, instead of globally in the ClutterStage.

jitter of just frame 2, but eliminates jitter thereafter.
Caveat 2: `clutter_frame_clock_schedule_update_now` schedules updates
earlier than `clutter_frame_clock_schedule_update`. This means potentially
you could get multiple frames targeting the same "next presentation time".
That doesn't really change here though - we're dispatching at the same
times as we used to and just giving timelines a better vsync-aligned
timestamp now.

This won't change anything for 60Hz displays but higher refresh rate
users will benefit.
Using Nvidia EGLStreams on a 240Hz monitor for example (refresh interval
~4.1ms), the maximum render time allowed before dropping to 120Hz is now
3.6ms whereas it was previously 2.1ms.

This is notably necessary with transformations, since these don't
trigger allocation machinery, but may affect the actor under the
pointer.
Visible e.g. with GNOME Shell's "Application does not respond"
dialogs.

With Wayland handling all events as they come, this code now just
performs motion compression for events that will be handled by Clutter
widgetry.
The intent to opt tablets and styli out of motion compression was
early and fast client handling, since that is now covered in a generic
manner, this code is superfluous. We don't really need the extra events
for these devices in compositor widgetry either.
Part-of: <https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/-/merge_requests/1915>
We essentially create those at the time they need to be handled, and
use shortcuts that avoid the event from being queued up. It's too much
of a short cut though, these events are also of interest to the Wayland
event handlers, e.g. to handle pointer state changes (e.g. repicks due
to the pick actor being destroyed) immediately, instead of at the next
event.
Part-of: <https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/-/merge_requests/1915>
If we are still under the "clear area" of the pick actor, we forget
to update the coordinates. This is usually not needed, unless we
need to repick again for non-event circumstances (e.g. pick actor
is destroyed). This will ensure the right pointer coordinates are
used afterwards in those situations.
Part-of: <https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/-/merge_requests/1915>
Traditionally, the next repaint would also involve picking, which
would correct the actor under the pointer. This now does not happen
out of the box, so we really are waiting for the next pointer event
here.
To avoid the pointer/cursor to lag behind, trigger an immediate
repick here, that will look up the new actor under the pointer
coordinates.
Part-of: <https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/-/merge_requests/1915>
And resort to it first, unless we are told to ignore the cache
(e.g. after relayouts). This avoids further pick context operations
while the pointer is on the current actor.
Part-of: <https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/-/merge_requests/1915>
This safe area is the region (in stage coordinates) where the pointer
is ensured to stay within the current actor. This is not used yet, but
will be used for optimizations in pointer picking.
Part-of: <https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/-/merge_requests/1915>
These may be used for optimizations once we find the pick actor,
so picking can be avoided in areas we know didn't cross into
other actors. Nothing makes use of it yet though, just log these
so far.

Add a clutter_stage_pick_and_update_device() method that is the only
single entry point for updating a device position as seen by the
stage.
Also, update all callers to use it.
Part-of: <https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/-/merge_requests/1915>
The clutter_stage_get_actor_at_pos() calls it almost 1:1 underneath
and is public API, we can have all callers use this, and stop using
this function outside of clutter-stage.c.

As event handling goes:
1) Events get generated and queued by the seat (from another thread in
native, in the same thread in X11)
2) The MetaBackend gets those events and forwards them to Clutter
via clutter_do_event()
3) The events get queued in the ClutterStage
4) At the time of processing a frame, the input events are processed,
5) Motion events are throttled, only the last is effectively handled
6) Events are filtered, wayland and WM handling happens here
7) Events maybe reach to clutter
This commit moves 6 to happen between 2 and 3. The end result is that:
- Throttling only applies to Clutter event handling, The wayland event
forwarding bits will handle the event stream as soon as it comes, as
timely as possible.
- WM event handling is also unthrottled, but that's more of a side
effect.
- This all still happens on the main thread, so there's the possibility
that other busy areas (e.g. relayout) temporarily block this event
forwarding.
- Sending events unthrottled inherently means more CPU, probably
dependent on input devices' frequency. The impact is not measured.
This should bring the best of both worlds with e.g. 1000Hz mice, wayland
clients get unthrottled events, while GNOME Shell UI still behaves like
it used to do.

If we wait till finalize, dispose will destroy the actor hierarchy
and cause untimely repicks. Ensure to free the pointer/touch info
first, so the hooked signal callbacks are gone when destroying the
actors.

In the case a11y is required, the screen reader is very much
interested in getting an uninterrupted flow of key events. It attempts
so by setting a ::captured-event callback on the ClutterStage, but
that falls short with our MetaDisplay event handler, as clutter events
can be stopped before a11y gets a chance to see them.
This kind of selective amnesia wrt key events is not new, in X11 those
go unheard of by the WM as long as a client is focused and no grabs hold,
so it is clients' responsibility to talk with AT bridge.
This commit doesn't yet change that for X11, but we can do this right
away from the compositor on Wayland, and without any chance to be
tampered by clients.

If one would end up with an actor attached to mapped actor, where the
attached actor doesn't itself have an up to date stage view list while
listening on the stage for updating, when clearing the stage views of
the list, anything that would query the stage views list at this time
would end up accessing freed memory.
This could happen if
1) An actor was added to a newly created container actor attached to
the stage
2) The actor got a timeline attached to it
3) The actor was moved to a container that already was mapped
4) A hotplug happened
After (1) both the container and actor would not have any stage views.
After (2) the timeline would listen on the stage for stage views
updates. After (3) the actor would still listen on the stage for stage
views updates. When (4) happened, the actor would be signalled when the
stage got its stage view cleared, at which point it would traverse up
its actor's tree finding an appropriate stage view to base its animation
on. The problem here would be that it'd query the already mapped
container and its yet-to-be-cleared stage view list, resulting in
use-after free, resulting in for example the following backtrace:
0) g_type_check_instance_cast ()
1) CLUTTER_STAGE_VIEW ()
2) clutter_actor_pick_frame_clock ()
3) clutter_actor_pick_frame_clock ()
4) update_frame_clock ()
5) on_frame_clock_actor_stage_views_changed ()
6) g_closure_invoke ()
7) signal_emit_unlocked_R ()
8) g_signal_emit_valist ()
9) g_signal_emit ()
10) clear_stage_views_cb ()
11) _clutter_actor_traverse_depth ()
12) _clutter_actor_traverse ()
13) clutter_actor_clear_stage_views_recursive ()
14) clutter_stage_clear_stage_views ()
...
Avoid this issue by making sure that we don't emit 'stage-views-changed'
signals while the actor tree is in an invalid state. While we now end up
traversing tree twice, it doesn't change the Big-O notation. It has not
been measured whether this has any noticible performance impact.

This does two things to frown upon:
- Modifies ClutterEvent structs, while the effort is to have those
completely opaque, and readonly after creation from the input
thread side.
- Stores state in the ClutterInputDevice struct, event though those
are also considered static after creation, managed by the input
thread, etc.
Stop doing that. This makes all events just forwarded as-is in
the ClutterStage/clutter-main.c code.
Handling of click count sounds like material for a ClutterGestureAction
(or perhaps ClutterClickAction), all of both callers now do it in place
at the moment, while gestures lack a better state tracking and management.

This will not try the captured-event shenanigans to emulate grab
behavior, instead relying on event delivery being influenced by
other grab mechanisms.
While at it, improve handling of additional touchpoints by
cancelling the click action right away, as the differences in
event handling make this unwanted behavior surface.
