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.

This changes the setup phase of clutter to not be result of calling an
init function that sets up a few global singletons, via global singleton
setup vfuncs.
The way it worked was that mutter first did some initial setup
(connecting to the X11 server), then set a "custom backend" setup vfunc
global, before calling clutter_init().
During the clutter_init() call, the context and backend was setup by
calling the global singleton getters, which implicitly created the
backend and context on-demand.
This has now changed to mutter explicitly creating a `ClutterContext`
(which is actually a `ClutterMainContext`, but with the name shortened to
be consistent with `CoglContext` and `MetaContext`), calling it with a
backend constructor vfunc and user data pointer.
This function now explicitly creates the backend, without having to go
via the previously set global vfunc.
This changes the behavior of some "get_default()" like functions, which
will now fail if called after mutter has shut down, as when it does so,
it now destroys the backends and contexts, not only its own, but the
clutter ones too.
The "ownership" of the clutter backend is also moved to
`ClutterContext`, and MetaBackend is changed to fetch it via the clutter
context.
This also removed the unused option parsing that existed in clutter.
In some places, NULL checks for fetching the clutter context, or
backend, and fetching the cogl context from the clutter backend, had to
be added.
The reason for this is that some code that handles EGL contexts attempts
to restore the cogl EGL context tracking so that the right EGL context
is used by cogl the next time. This makes no sense to do before Cogl and
Clutter are even initialized, which was the case. It wasn't noticed
because the relevant singletons were initialized on demand via their
"getters".

In various places we retrieved the default seat from the ClutterBackend.
All the clutter backends implement this by calling
meta_backend_get_default_seat() which will then return
MetaBackendPrivate::default_seat.
Lets avoid this by fetching the default seat directly.

Avoid having laptops suspend or lock as soon as the power cable is
unplugged as the timeout for those actions when on battery are smaller
than the timeouts when on AC.
- laptop is plugged in, and hasn't been used for X minutes
- laptop is unplugged
- the gnome-settings-daemon power plugin sets up its timeouts for
inactivity for the "on battery" case
- those X minutes of inactivity are still counting, and are above
the level of one of the timeouts (say, suspend or lock screen),
mutter fires the timeouts
- gsd-power activates the action associated with the timeout

commit c4a73e7950 added
code to cleanup the renderer when the meta backend is
disposed. Unfortunately, this introduced a crash when
the window manager is replaced.
This is because cleaning up the renderer involves talking
to the X server over a display connection that's closed
two lines higher as part of the clutter_backend_destroy
call.
This commit fixes the crash by swapping their order.

As with the compositor type enum, also have the X11 display policy enum,
as it's also effectively part of the context configuration. But as with
the compositor type, move it to a header file for enums only, and since
this is a private one, create a private variant meta-enums.h.

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.

It keeps references to cursors, and cursors keep references to DRM
buffers. In order to be able to clean up on exit, explicitly destroy the
cursor tracker on shutdown.
We can't rely on GObject reference counting, as gjs might hold onto a
reference until it's garbage collected.

Various things, e.g, the renderer, the stage, either directly or

so, by moving GPU cleanup after the other cleaning. This will allow

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.

Since commit 2ceac4a device-related X11 events aren't processed anymore,
causing the input settings not to handle the devices.
This is due to the fact that we may never call clutter_seat_handle_event_post()
for such events.
While this is always happening for the native backend, it doesn't happen in
X11 because the events are removed from the queue as part of
meta_x11_handle_event(), and thus no event was queued to the stage by the
backend events source.
This also makes sure that the event post handler is called after the
event is actually processed, and not before an event is queued.

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.

Simplify the handling of numlock state, so it can be entirely handled
within the input thread. Since the saving/restoring is triggered inside
each backend code, there's no need anymore for meta_backend_set_numlock().

We are aiming for a split of HW and SW cursor rendering management.
Given the HW plane is a limited resource and the amount of cursor
renderers may be >1 (due to tablets, even though we currently use an
always-software cursor renderer there), it would ideally be able to
switch between renderers.
Being MetaCursorRenderer not really a singleton, having cursor
inhibitor accounting here doesn't pan out. Make it MetaBackend API
so all cursor renderers get the same picture.

Different devices may get standalone cursor renderers, add this API
to adapt slowly to this. The meta_backend_get_cursor_renderer() call
still exists, but shortcuts to the mouse pointer's renderer (as it
actually did before).

Not calling libinput dispatch in the backend constructor defeats the
logic in post init as the device added events have not been processed
yet.
So instead of trying to guess the cursor initial visibility, simply
update it along when devices get added.
Additional benefit, we do not need to walk the all device list looking
for touchscreens anymore, we just need to check the device being added
since the current logic is to hide the cursor as soon as a touchscreen
is found.

Mutter still relies heavily on singletons such as its MetaBackend.
For that, the backend implementation has a meta_init_backend() function
which is called at startup from meta_init(), which creates the desired
backend and sets the singleton which is returned by meta_get_backend().
Unfortunately, that means that the backend is never actually freed, and
all the code from the backend finalize function never actually get
called.
Add a meta_release_backend() to free the backend singleton.

Just because X11/XI uses a particular terminology doesn't mean we
have to use the same terms in our own API. The replacement terms
are in line with gtk@1c856a208, which seems a better precedent

When removing a device that has been just marked as the last in use, we may
try to notify that a NULL device is the last one.
This is not supported, as both update_last_device() and the clients of the
"::last-device-changed" signal are assuming that the last device is always
a valid ClutterInputDevice.
So let's avoid erroring, and stop the idle when clearing the current device.
