Virtual input devices aim to enable injecting input events as if they
came from hardware events. This is useful for things such as remote
controlling, for example via a remote desktop session.
The API so far only consists of stumps.

We do some things when binding to a socket fails (closing the fd,
logging, unlinking files, ...) those might affect errno in some
or other way, so it might no longer be EADDRINUSE even if we later
try to make those non fatal.
It seems better to check errno soon after the failure, and don't
rely on it in any way at a later point. All error paths in
bind_to_abstract_socket() also have early logging, which also might
help figure out better the point of failure when the socket fails
to be created.

Allocate the offscreen stage view framebuffers up front; otherwise they
may get allocated after the viewport calculated by the stage is set,
which would cause the viewport to be incorrect until recalculated.

Support changing the mouse and trackball acceleration profile. This
makes it possible to for example disable pointer acceleration by
choosing the 'flat' profile.
This adds an optional dependency on gudev. Gudev is used by the X11
backend to detect whether a device is a mouse or not. Without gudev
support, the accel profile settings has have effect for mouse devices.
Trackball still uses the "strstr" approach, since udev doesn't support
tagging devices as trackball devices yet.

Add support for setting edge-scrolling separately from two-finger
scrolling. We now have 2 separate boolean settings for those, with the
Mouse panel in gnome-control-center allowing to set only one of those at
a time, but nothing precludes both being set in the configuration.
We need to handle:
- two-finger-scrolling-enabled and edge-scrolling-enabled settings both
being set.
- those 2 settings being change out-of-order
- two-finger-scrolling being set on a device that doesn't support it
- edge-scrolling-enabled on a device that doesn't support it
And the combinations of one touchpad supporting just one of edge
scrolling and two-finger scrolling and another vice-versa.

Instead of continuing eventually crashing with a segmentation fault due
to a missing renderer, make MetaBackend an GInitable, and gracefully
handle the failure to fully create the backend with an EXIT_FAILURE.

We only use a handful of the attributes set, so lets stop pretending
that things are initialized for a reason. Eventually we should stop
using XWindowAttributes in the generic MetaWindow creation path.

If the compiler cannot figure out that the condition for setting
the dev variable is the same as the condition for accessing it,
it will complain about potential uninitialized use.
We must lookup the mode switch serial for the group where the button
belongs to. Also, avoid the changes if the client requests setting
the feedback for buttons owned by the compositor.
We assumed that each group could only have 1 strip and/or ring, because
accounting is performed per group, so we could not assume the real
index for anything above 1. Get rid of this restriction, now that
MetaWaylandTabletPad does its own accounting of rings/strips, alongside
groups.
This is best for 2 reasons:
- It's feels cleaner doing first creation of rings/strips and then
the group assignment. The other option is making groups iterate
other all rings/strips and selectively skip those not meant for
it, which sounds somewhat redundant.
- Some minimal accounting of rings/strips without group restrictions
is needed for meta_wayland_tablet_pad_get_label().
The rings/strips memory is now owned by MetaWaylandTabletPad instead
of groups, which is sort of meaningless since all are meant to go
at the same time.
There may be external/compositor-specific reasons to trigger the
pad OSD. Expose this call so the pad OSD can be triggered looking
up the right settings, monitor, etc...
This API will be used from the gnome-shell pad OSD implementation, in order
to show the actions that currently apply to every button/ring/strip in the
tablet.
