When a client is ready for the compositor to read a surface's
shared memory buffer, it tells the compositor via
wl_surface_commit.
From that point forward, the baton is given to the compositor:
it knows it can read the buffer without worring about the client
making changes out from under it.
After the compositor has uploaded the pixel contents to the video
card it is supposed to release the buffer back to the client so that
the client can reuse it for future use.
At the moment, mutter only releases the buffer when a new buffer
is attached. This is problematic, since it means the client has
to have a second buffer prepared before the compositor gives the
first one back. Preparing the second buffer potentially involves
copying megabytes of pixel data, so that's suboptimal, and there's
no reason mutter couldn't release the buffer earlier.
This commit changes mutter to release a surface's buffer as soon
as it's done processing the commit request.

Since commit 6183eb3632 we disabled swap
throttling in favour of being driven by the GDK frame clock (and thus by
the compositor).
Compositors may decide to unredirect full screen windows to avoid the
performance penalty of the additional copy, especially on X11, which
means that a Clutter application marked as full screen is not going to
be driven by the compositor, and it's not going to be throttled by the
underlying GL machinery. This has a performance impact on constrained
platforms.
For this reason, we should re-enable swap throttling when the window is
full screen.
As the change was introduced especially because of Wayland, we should
check that we're not running as clients under a Wayland compositor; if
we do, we always keep swap throttling disabled, as the compositor will
always manage our output, even when full screen.
GTK+ improved its CSS support, and the default theme started to make
use of it, so we must update our theming code accordingly. Add support
for margins where they make sense.

Since we are using the surface actor to draw the DND icon, the offset
is already accounted for by MetaSurfaceActorWayland, and passing the
surface position offset would effectively double the actual offset,
causing the icon to be misplaced.
This patch always sets the anchor offset to (0, 0) when the icon is a
Wayland surface, and lets the surface actor deal with the offsetting.

We now additionally send:
- wl_data_offer.source_actions
- wl_data_source.action
- wl_data_offer.action
- wl_data_source.dnd_drop_performed
- wl_data_source.dnd_finished
The protocol changes allow for compositors to implement different policies
when chosing the action, mutter uses this to reimplement the same behavior
that GTK+ traditionally had:
- Alt/Control/Shift modifiers change the chosen action to
ask/copy/move respectively
- Drags with middle button start out as "ask" by default
As mutter now also grabs the keyboard and unsets the window focus for these
purposes, the window focus is restored after the drag operation has
finished.
The Xdnd bridge code is also modified to cope with actions, so mixed
wayland-x11 scenarios are able to convey that information.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=760805
This will be useful during DnD, where mutter is expected to consume
keyboard events for either allowing changes in the selected DnD action,
or misc a11y features like keyboard-driven DnD.
Currently, the vtable contains 2 functions, key() will be used on every
key event we get from Clutter, modifiers() will notify of changes in the
keyboard modifiers (mouse buttons will never be set in the modifier mask)

As per the spec:
- wl_pointer.axis_source determines the current source of
scroll events.
- wl_pointer.axis_stop determines when there's no further
scroll events on the given axis.
- wl_pointer.axis_discrete is emitted on "wheel"
scroll sources, measured in ticks.
- wl_pointer.frame is meant to coalesce events that logically belong
together, e.g. axis events in this case.

Those can be used to implement different scrolling behaviors.
The fields have been added to ClutterScrollEvent itself. According
to pahole, this makes the struct as big as ClutterButtonEvent and
ClutterTouchEvent, so already at the limit of the ClutterEvent
union.

Some of the mutter code using these properties expects them to be
null-terminated whereas xcb does not use null-terminated strings:
http://xcb.freedesktop.org/XcbRationale/
This was in some cases resulting in the WM_CLASS property containing
garbage data which broke application matching, caused the hot-corner and
window-switcher to stop working, or was exposed as text in the UI.

This fixes an issue analogous to bug 760330 for the X11 backend,
except on this backend we wouldn't crash accessing free'd memory.
Instead we're leaking watches since we steal them from the hash table
which means that when they're removed in
_meta_idle_monitor_watch_fire() they're no longer there and thus
they're never free'd.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=760476
Right now the XSync based idle monitoring code, will fetch all active
watches into a list, and then call their watch callbacks one by one
as necessary. If one watch callback invalidates another watch, the
list will contain free'd memory.
This commit makes sure to consult the hash table after ever call
of a watch callback, to ensure mutter never looks at freed memory.
Fixes crash reported on IRC by Laine Stump with his synergy setup.

The new tiling code, instead of based around "tiling states", is instead
based around constrained edges. This allows us to have windows that have
three constrained edges, but keep one free-floating, e.g. a window tiled
to the left has the left, top, and bottom edges constrained, but the
right edge can be left resizable.
This system also is easily extended to support corner tiling. We also,
using the new "size state" system, also keep normal, tiled, and
maximized sizes independently, allowing the maximize button to bounce
between maximized and tiled states without reverting to normal in
between. Dragging from the top will always restore the normal state,
though.

We can know the rotation modes supported by the driver, so
export these as our supported modes, and ensure these modes
are honored on the CRTC primary plane upon apply_configuration().
It is worth noting however that not all hardware will be
capable of supporting all rotation modes (in fact, most of
them won't). A driver independent solution should be in
place to back up the rotation modes unsupported by the
drivers, so this is still a partial solution.
The cursor renderer has also been changed to default to
software-based rendering anytime the cursor enters a
rotated CRTC. Another solution would be actually rotating
the DRM cursor planes, but then it requires applying rotation on
these per-CRTC, and actually transforming the pointer position by
the output matrix. This brings marginal gains, so we use the
"sw" rendered cursor, which will be transformed together with
the primary plane.

In case a window is hidden when we're ordered to make it transient to
a different parent we must re-evaluate its visibility status or we'll
get into an inconsistent state where the parent is visible and the
child isn't.

This seems like a more generally useful and intuitive behavior. Note
that, in X sessions, this is what already happened in practice since
meta_display_begin_grab_op() calls meta_window_grab_all_keys() which,
on X11, does meta_window_focus().

This is a really old behavior introduced in commit
585e362526 which is inconsistent since
it only applies to SSD windows.
If we really want this, we should focus the window elsewhere so that
it applies consistently to all windows.

Some applications, like Chromium, explicitly set their bounding region
to the client area when full-screen. Detect this case, and allow us to
fullscreen when this happens.
