Doing it in dispose means the backend is actively tearing down itself,
meaning various components might or might not be there, depending on how
the tearing down is implemented. Make things a bit more robust by doing
any work that might rely on the backend being there before shutdown is
done in response to the 'prepare-shutdown' signal being emitted by the
backend.

This means objects have an owner, where the chain eventually always
leads to a MetaContext. This also means that all objects can find their
way to other object instances via the chain, instead of scattered global
singletons.
This is a squashed commit originally containing the following:
cursor-tracker: Don't get backend from singleton
idle-manager: Don't get backend from singleton
input-device: Pass pointer to backend during construction
The backend is needed during construction to get the wacom database.
input-mapper: Pass backend when constructing
monitor: Don't get backend from singleton
monitor-manager: Get backend directly from monitor manager
remote: Get backend from manager class
For the remote desktop and screen cast implementations, replace getting
the backend from singletons with getting it via the manager classes.
launcher: Pass backend during construction
device-pool: Pass backend during construction
Instead of passing the (maybe null) launcher, pass the backend, and get
the launcher from there. That way we always have a way to some known
context from the device pool.
drm-buffer/gbm: Get backend via device pool
cursor-renderer: Get backend directly from renderer
input-device: Get backend getter
input-settings: Add backend construct property and getter
input-settings/x11: Don't get backend from singleton
renderer: Get backend from renderer itself
seat-impl: Add backend getter
seat/native: Get backend from instance struct
stage-impl: Get backend from stage impl itself
x11/xkb-a11y: Don't get backend from singleton
backend/x11/nested: Don't get Wayland compositor from singleton
crtc: Add backend property
Adding a link to the GPU isn't enough; the virtual CRTCs of virtual
monitors doesn't have one.
cursor-tracker: Don't get display from singleton
remote: Don't get display from singleton
seat: Don't get display from singleton
backend/x11: Don't get display from singleton

This is an old relic from when ClutterStageView was being added, and
tests were somewhat prepared to be able to test the "X11 style" of
things, with the nested backend some how managing to emulate that.
Lets drop that stuff, it isn't used by the test suite, and isn't useful
anyway; if we want to test X11 configurations, we should use the actual
X11 backend, which didn't make use of this anyway.

EGLStream is incompatible with atomic mode setting, but nvidia-drm when
using libgbm is not, so lets only deny using atomic mode setting when
the render device is an EGLStream based one.
Part-of: <https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/-/merge_requests/2578>
The type of render device used for a specific GPU affects the mode
setting backend that can be used, more specifically, when the render
device is an EGLStream based one, atomic mode setting isn't possible, as
page flipping is done via EGL, not via atomic mode setting commits.
Preparing the render devices before KMS devices means can make a more
informed decision whether to deny-list atomic mode setting for when
a certain GPU uses a EGLStream based render device instance.
This also means we need to translate mode setting devices to render node
devices when creating the render device itself, as doing it later when
creating the mode setting device is already too late.

Create a color manager type that eventually will be the high level
manager of color related behavior, such as ICC profiles and
color "temperature" a.k.a. night light.
For now, it's only an empty shell. It's also constructed by the actual
backend, as at a later point, the X11 and native color management
implementations will differ.

Since commit 1bf70334 "tests/runner: Make test runner use the headless
backend", tests are run with the native backend in headless mode, which
will attempt to open each GPU and show a warning (fatal during tests)
if it cannot.
However, in headless mode we might not be logged in on any seat (for
example we might be logged in via ssh instead), which means we might
legitimately not have permission to use any GPUs, even if they exist.
Downgrade the warning to a debug message in this case.

Prior to this commit, barriers were created with a MetaDisplay pointer,
despite being entities related and owned by the backend. In the X11
case, it was also not hooked up to the backend X11 connection, but the
clutter one, meaning for example that the logic was active (but dormant)
also for the Xwayland connection.
Fix this by moving X11 barrier management and event processing fully to
the backend. Also replace passing a display pointer with passing a
backend pointer. Keep the display pointer around for a release, but mark
it as deprecated.

The min distance to the right/bottom edge depends on Wayland concepts
(wl_fixed_t) and eventually geometry scale. Move the logic the Wayland
side of the pointer constraints machinery to avoid the backend trying to
figure this out without the proper data.

DMA buffers might be allocatable, but it doesn't mean the driver doesn't
fail when we try to allocate a buffer with an implicit modifier. Using
the proprietary NVIDIA driver for example, it will fail. Lets catch this
up front and avoid advertising DMA buffer support when we know it won't
work.
Part-of: <https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/-/merge_requests/2383>
We now only enable DMA buffer based PipeWire screen casting if a
format/modifier has been negotiated. This practically means a consumer
is aware about what is needed, and we should not try to predict that it
uses the DMA buffer the right way (i.e. not mmap:ing directly).
However, in case we're not hardware accelerated, we never want to
attempt to use DMA buffer screen sharing, as we want to avoid
compositing into a DMA buffer on such hardware as doing so can be very
slow.

When we test, we might not have a systemd session to rely on, and this
may cause some API we depend on to get various session related data to
not work properly. Avoid this issue by passing fallback values for these
when we're running in test mode.

There will be another mode added later, 'test'; prepare for this by
changing the existing "mode" boolean ('headless') to a mode, which is
either 'default' or 'headless'. Checking the is_headless variable is
changed to using the function is_headless(), except for one place, being
VT switching, which in preparation is only allowed on the 'default'
mode. Other places where it makes sense, the conditions are changed to
switch statements.
Part-of: <https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/-/merge_requests/2151>
MetaBackend can now show whether it is in headless mode or not
using a vfunc is_headless.
Fallback of is_headless returns FALSE.
MetaBackendNative implements is_headless returning its
is_headless property.

When the native backend is paused we still process the udev events
even though this isn't needed and may just cause unneeded events to be
triggered afterwards.
Since we'll resume with full changes on such event, we can just block
the signal hander when paused and restore it afterwards.
As per this we can cleanup also a bit the device adding signal handling
given that now we don't have to disconnect/reconnect it again.

This practically does the same thing as part of MetaLauncher, except
with added thread safety and caching. For example, opening the same file
a second time will return the same MetaDeviceFile, and only once all
acquired MetaDeviceFile's are released, will the file descriptor be
closed and control of the device released.

There is an udev rule marking whether a device should be ignored by
mutter or not, but it was only respected on hotplug events not on init,
partly defeating its purpose. Fix this.

This object takes over the functionality of meta-idle-monitor-dbus.c,
meta-idle-monitor.c and meta-backend.c, all related to higher level
management of idle watches etc.
The idle D-Bus API is changed to be initialized by the backend instead
of MetaDisplay, as it's more of a backend functionality than what
MetaDisplay usually deals with.
It also takes over the work of implementing "core" idle monitors. The
singleton API is replaced with thin wrapper functions on the backend.

Wayland support is not really a "backend" thing, it just lacked a better
place to store its instance pointer. Eventually we'll have a better
place, but prepare for that by initializing it together with the more
similar subsystems.

The first phase happens early, which discards pending page flips,
meaning the references held by those page flip closures are released.
The second phase happens late, after other units depending on the KMS
abstraction, have been cleaned up.

Virtual Kernel Mode Setting (vkms) is a virtual /dev/dri/card* device
not backed by any actual hardware. It's intended for testing purposes,
e.g. to run tests suites with a reproducable setup, or in continuous
integration pipelines.
Currently mutter don't have any tests that can run on top of vkms, but
will eventually get that. To prepare for the ability to do that, and
having said kernel module loaded without causing wierd issues with any
active session, add an udev rule that tells mutter to ignore any vkms
device.
Otherwise, when vkms is loaded, mutter would detect it, assume it's a
regular monitor, configure it as such, thus add a region of the stage
that ends up nowhere, which isn't very helpful. It might also conflict
with running actual tests that need to interact with vkms if the active
session has taken control of it.

The intel DRM driver is known for not being able to handle multi head
setups when KMS modifiers are enabled, due to the implicitly selected
modifiers, while being more suitable for single head setups, cause
bandwidth issues when a certain number of monitor times resolution and
refresh rate is configured.
We don't yet support automatically finding a combination of modifiers
that work, and have because of this disabled KMS modifiers unless the
driver actually needs it.
Lets flip this configuration the other way around, changing the current
udev rule to decide wen to *disable* KMS modifier support, as it so that
only the Intel driver has this problem, while on the other hand, there
several drivers that requires modifiers to function at all.

This eliminates the need for any render node or device nodes, thus can
be used without any graphics hardware available at all, or with a
graphics driver without any render node available.
The surfaceless mode currently requires EGL_KHR_no_config_context to
configure the initial EGL display.
This also means we can enable the native backend tests in CI, as it
should work without any additional privileges.

With this commit, it's possible to run mutter without being DRM master.
It's not yet possible to add virtual monitors, but one can for example
already add virtual input devices.
This currently doesn't try to hook up to any logind session, thus will
not have a real seat assigned. Currently it's hard coded to "seat0".
Part-of: <https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/-/merge_requests/1698>
Currently our only entry point for DRM devices is MetaKms*, but in order
to run without being DRM master, we cannot use /dev/dri/card*, nor can
we be either of the existing MetaKmsImplDevice implementation (legacy
KMS, and atomic KMS), as they both depend on being DRM master.
Thus to handle running without being DRM master (i.e. headless), add a
"dummy" MetaKmsImplDevice implementation, that doesn't do any mode
setting at all, and that switches to operate on the render node, instead
of the card node itself.
This means we still use the same GBM code paths as the regular native
backend paths, except we never make use of any CRTC backed onscreen
framebuffers.
Eventually, this "dummy" MetaKmsImplDevice will be replaced separating
"KMS" device objects from "render" device objects, but that will require
more significant changes. It will, however, be necessary for e.g. going
from being headless, only having access to a render node, to turning
into a real session, with a seat, being DRM master, and having access to
a card node.
This is currently not hooked up, but will be in a later commit.
Part-of: <https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/-/merge_requests/1698>
Make it possible to pass --headless as a command line argument in order
to turn the native backend "headless". This currently doesn't do
anything, but the intention is that it should not use logind nor KMS,
and work completely headless with only virtual outputs.

Suspending might have changed the CRTC configuration, turning some off,
some on, etc. We need to update our internal representation of this
state, so that we know how to reconfigure upon resuming, e.g. what CRTCs
to turn off again.

This means backend implementations can have more control of the order of
how things are destroyed. To be precise, this will, in the next commit,
allow us to destroy the logind integration after the clutter backend
thus the libinput owning seat, that uses the logind integration to
release input devices.
