If two modes are roughly the same, they should probably use the same UI
scaling factor. I.e. for the same monitor, if a 4K mode was configured to
have a certain scaling factor, and we generate a new configuration with
a similar sized 4K mode, we should re-use the scale previously
configured; however if we e.g. go from a 4K mode to a FHD mode, we
shouldn't.
This allows implementing better hueristics when using the switch-config
feature, where we'd be less likely to loose the for a certain monitor
mode combination previously configured scaling factor.

Some monitors support hardware features to enable the privacy screen
mode that allows users to toggle (via software or hardware button) a
state in which the display may be harder to see to people not sitting
in front of it.
Expose then this capability to the monitor level so that we can get its
state and set it.

With some resolutions (such as 4096x2160) we may compute duplicated
scale factors because we used a too wide threshold to check for an
applicable value.
In fact, while when we're at the first and last values it's fine to
search applicable values up to SCALE_FACTORS_STEP, on intermediate ones
we should stop in the middle of it, or we're end up overlapping the
previous scaling value domain.
In the said example in fact we were returning 2.666667 both when
looking to a scaling value close to 2.75 and 3.00 as the upper bound of
2.75 (3.0) was overlapping with the lower bound of 3.0 (2.75).
With the current code, the lower and upper bounds will be instead 2.875.
Adapt test to this, and this allows to also ensure that we're always
returning a sorted and unique list of scales (which is useful as also
g-c-c can ensure that this is true).

We introduced META_MONITOR_SCALES_CONSTRAINT_NO_FRAC to get global scale
values however, this didn't work properly for some resolutions.
In fact it may happen that for some resolutions (such as 3200x1800) that
we did not compute some odd scaling levels (such as 3.0) but instead
its closest fractional value that allowed to get an integer resolution
(2.98507452 in this case).
Now this is something relevant when using fractional scaling because we
want to ensure that the returned value, when multiplied to the scaled
sizes, will produce an integer resolution, but it's not in global scale
mode where we don't use a scaled framebuffer.
So, take a short path when using no fractional mode and just return all
the applicable values without waste iterations on fractional values.

In Xrandr we were caching the available scaling modes that were computed just
for the current mode, for each monitor, while we can actually reuse the
default implementation, by just passing the proper scaling constraint.
In monitor we need then to properly filter these values, by only accepting
integer scaling factors that would allow to have a minimal logical monitor
size.

When rebuilding the monitors (e.g. during hotplug), make sure to detach
the disposed monitors from any outputs before creating the new monitors.
While this isn't currently needed, as outputs are too being recreated,
with the to be introduced virtual outputs that are created for virtual
monitors, this is not always the case anymore, as these virtual outputs
are not regenerated each time anything changes.
Prepare for this by making sure that cleaning up disposed monitors
detach themself properly from the outputs, so new ones can attach
themself to outputs without running into conflicts.

Before each frame is maybe redrawn, push any new cursor KMS state to the
pending update. It'll then either be posted during the next page flip,
or when the same frame finishes, in case nothing was redrawn.

The ID and name are just moved into the instance private, while the rest
is moved to a `MetaCrtcModeInfo` struct which is used during
construction and retrieved via a getter. Opens up the possibility to
add actual sub types.

The output info is established during construction and will stay the
same for the lifetime of the MetaOutput object. Moving it out of the
main struct enables us to eventually clean up the MetaOutput type
inheritence to use proper GObject types.

That is is_presentation, is_primary, is_underscanning and backlight.
The first three are set during CRTC assignment as they are only valid
when active. The other is set separately, as it is untied to
monitor configuration.

Previously the tile coordinate was used to offset a CRTC scanout
coordinate within a larger framebuffer. Since 3.36 we're always
scanning out from (0, 0) as we always have one framebuffer per CRTC; we
instead use the tile coordinate to calculate the coordinate the tile has
in the stage view. Adapt calculation to fulfil this promise instead of
the old one.
This also corrects the tiled custom monitor test case.

To make it more reliable to distinguish between values that are read
from the backend implementation (which is likely to be irrelevant for
anything but the backend implementation), split out those values (e.g.
layout).
This changes the meaning of what was MetaCrtc::rect, to a
MetaCrtcConfig::layout which is the layout the CRTC has in the global
coordinate space.

Explicitly checking the dimensions of a mode to determine whether it

The display name is being used by the monitor manager to expose to name
to the DBUS API.
It is being rebuilt each time, so instead build the displa yname once
for the monitor and keep it around, with an API to retrieve it, so that
we can reuse it in preparation of xdg-output v2 support.

For historical reasons meta_monitor_is_active() checked whether it is
active by checking whether the main output have a CRTC assigned and
whether that CRTC has a current mode. At a later point, the MetaMonitor
got its own mode abstraction (MetaMonitorMode), but
meta_monitor_is_active() was never updated to use this.
An issue with checking the main output's CRTC state is that, if there is
some CRTC mode combination that for some reason isn't properly detected
by the MetaMonitorMode abstraction (e.g. some tiling configuration not
yet handled), meta_monitor_is_active() would return TRUE, even though no
(abstracted) mode was set. This would cause confusion here and there,
leading to NULL pointer dereferences due to the assumption that if a
monitor is active, it has an active mode.
Instead, change meta_monitor_is_active() to directly check the current
monitor mode, and log a warning if the main output still happen to have
a CRTC with a mode assigned to it. This way, when an not undrestood CRTC
mode combination is encountered, instead of dereferencing NULL pointers,
simply assume the monitor is not active, which means that it will not be
managed or rendered by mutter at all.

Make it so that each logical monitor has a reference to all the
monitors that are assigned to it.

Using 800x600 as minimum logical size is very 4:3 thinking, while a lot of
modern devices are 16:9. The specific reason for this commit is to allow
1.5 scaling at mini-laptops (clamshell devices) with e.g. a 5.5"
1280x720 screen. Given that this device has a keyboard, one obviously
is not holding it very close to ones eyes and at 220 dpi that means the text
is too small at scale 1.0. For one real world example of such a device see:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GPD_Winhttps://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=792765
Some x86 clamshell design devices use portrait tablet LCD panels while
they should use a landscape panel, resoluting in a 90 degree rotated
picture.
Newer kernels detect this and rotate the fb console in software to
compensate. These kernels also export their knowledge of the LCD panel
orientation vs the casing in a "panel orientation" drm_connector property.
This commit adds support to mutter for reading the "panel orientation"
and transparently (from a mutter consumer's pov) fixing this by applying
a (hidden) rotation transform to compensate for the panel orientation.
