Adds an API to get the position suggested by the backend. This
translates to position advertised by some VM:s, used to hint at a
position making the position more natural (i.e. placed similarly to how
it may be placed on the host desktop).

The new monitor configuration system (MetaMonitorConfigManager) aims to
replace the current MetaMonitorConfig. The main difference between the
two is that MetaMonitorConfigManager works with higher level input
(MetaMonitor, MetaMonitorMode) instead of directly looking at the CRTC
and connector state. It still produces CRTC and connector configuration
later applied by the respective backends.
Other difference the new system aims to introduce is that the
configuration system doesn't manipulate the monitor manager state; that
responsibility is left for the monitor manager to handle (it only
manages configuration and creates CRTC/connector assignments, it
doesn't apply anything).
The new configuration system allows backends to not rely on deriving the
current configuration from the CRTC/connector state, as this may no longer be
possible (i.e. when using KMS and multiple framebuffers).
The MetaMonitorConfigManager system is so far disabled by default, as
it does not yet have all the features of the old system, but eventually
it will replace MetaMonitorConfig which will at that point be removed.
This will make it possible to remove old hacks introduced due to
limitations in the old system.

Operate on MetaMonitor's instead of MetaOutput's, as the latter may be
only a subset of an actual "monitor" when referring to the physical
computer equipment.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=777732
When a logical monitor constains monitors with different subpixel
ordering, make the wl_output have the subpixel order 'unknown' so that
clients don't make assumptions given only a subset of the monitors of
the given region.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=777732
Sometimes we hit a race on hot-plug where we try to read the KMS
resources and the EDID blob is not yet ready. This would normally
result in a ENOENT when retrieving the blob. Handle this by retrying
after 50 milliseconds after a hot-plug event. Do this up to 10 times,
and after that give up trying to get the EDID blob and continue with
best effort.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=777732
The function meta_monitor_manager_read_current_config() was renamed to
meta_monitor_manager_read_current_state() as it does not read any
configuration, but reads the current state as described by the backend.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=777732
In preparation of replacing the configuration system with one working
with high level monitors instead of low level outputs etc, move
configuarion handling code into obviously named function (containing
the word 'legacy'.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=777732
A monitor spec object is meant to be used to identify a certain monitor
on a certain output. The spec is unique per actual monitor and connector,
meaning that a monitor that changes from one connector from another
(e.g. HDMI1 to HDMI2) will not be identified as the same. It is meant
to associate for example a configuration entry with an actual monitor.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=777732
Add a "mode spec" concept, meaning to be used as a identifier for an
actual monitor mode. It consists of details making a mode unique, i.e.
the total resolution and refresh rate. This will later be used to get
the actual monitor mode (set of one or more CRTC modes).
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=777732
Add "monitor modes" abstracting the modes set on a monitor. On normal
monitors, this directly maps to the CRTC modes, but on tiled monitors,
a monitor mode can consist modes per tiled output.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=777732
Don't try to mirror the physical dimension, since that's a property of
one of the monitors, not of the logical monitor. Callers are changed to
deal with choosing the monitor to represent the logical monitor.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=777732
Don't deal with adding/removing tiled Xrandr monitors in the generic
backend, but leave it to the Xrandr backend. The tiled monitor will
itself notify the backend when such a monitor is added and removed.
Tiled Xrandr monitors are now based no MetaMonitor instead of
MetaLogicalMonitor. This means that mirrored tiled monitors will now be
represented correctly.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=777732
Instead of using crtcs and outputs to generate logical monitors, use
the ready made monitor abstraction that hides irrelevant things such as
monitor tiling etc.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=777732
Generate a set of "monitors" abstracting the physical concepts. Each
monitor is built up of one or more outputs; multiple outputs being
tiled monitors. Logical monitors will later be built from these.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=777732
The MetaMonitorMode referred to the mode of a CRTC, and with the future
introduction of a MetaMonitor, theh old name would be confusing.
Instead call it what it is.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=777732
Add private API for overriding the compositor configuration, i.e. the
compositor type (X11 WM or Wayland compositor) and backend type. This
will make it possible to add a special test backend used by src/tests/.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=777732
Put the monitor xinerama index in a separate struct that is attached to
the logical monitor using g_object_set/get_qdata(). Eventually this
should be moved to some "X11 window manager" object, but lets keep it
in MetaScreen until we have such a thing.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=777732
Instead of storing the logical monitors in an array and having users
either look up them in the array given an index or iterate using
indices, put it in a GList, and use GList iterators when iterating and
alternative API where array indices were previously used.
This allows for more liberty regarding the type of the logical monitor.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=777732
Refactor the tiled monitor assembly code (that constructs a logical
monitor out of tiling information. Part of the reason is to move away
from array based storage, part is to make the code easier to follow,
and part is to separate logical monitor construction from list
manipulation.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=777732
Change meta_monitor_manager_get_logical_monitor_at() to use floats,
replace users of meta_monitor_manager_get_monitor_at_point() to use the
API that returns a logical monitor and remove the now unused function.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=777732
Move the last piece of monitor grid getter API to the monitor manager
away from MetaScreen. The public facing API are still there, but are
thin wrappers around the MetaMonitorManager API.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=777732
The method used for getting the current logical monitor (the monitor
where the pointer cursor is currently at) depends on the backend type,
so move that logic to the corresponding backends.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=777732
Turning a rectangle into a logical monitor also has nothing to do with
the screen (MetaScreen) so move it to MetaMonitorManager which has that
information.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=777732
Let the backend initialize the cursor tracker, and change all call
sites to get the cursor tracker from the backend instead of from the
screen. It wasn't associated with the screen anyway, so the API was
missleading.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=777732
This is the current equivalent of looking up the logical monitor in the
logical monitor array using the number, but eventually that will be
deprecated, and before that done differently, so add a temporary helper
for the places that has not been ported yet.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=777732
It was just pointer to the actual list; having to synchronize a list of
logical monitors with the actual monitors managed by the backend is
unnecessary.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=777732
In preparation for further refactorizations, rename the MetaMonitorInfo
struct to MetaLogicalMonitor. Eventually, part of MetaLogicalMonitor
will be split into a MetaMonitor type.

Use the proposed EGL_WL_wayland_eglstream EGL extension instead of the
file descriptor hack that was used as a temporary solution.
Note that this results in EGL clients will no longer work if they are
running on a Nvidia driver with a version older than 370.

We need to do swap notifications asynchronously from flip events since
these might be processed during swap buffers if we are waiting for the
previous frame's flip to continue with the current.
This means that we might have more than one swap notification queued
to be delivered when the idle handler runs. In that case we must
deliver all notifications for which we've already seen a flip event.
Failing to do so means that if a new frame, that only swaps buffers on
such a swap notification backlogged Onscreen, is started, when later
we get its flip event, we'd notify only an old frame which would hit
this MetaStageNative's frame_cb() early exit:
if (global_frame_counter <= presented_frame_counter)
return;
and we'd never finish the new frame and thus clutter's master clock
would be waiting forever stuck.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=774557
When flush-swap-notify is already queued, we might end up trying to
requeue it, for example when handling flip callbacks inside
swap-buffers. Actually queuing it there is harmless, since old frames
will be discarded anyway.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=774923
We might still end up in swap-buffer without the previous flip callback
having been invoked. This can happen if there are two monitors, and we
manage to draw before having all monitor flip callbacks invoked.

This commit adds for a new type of buffer being attached to a Wayland
surface: buffers from an EGLStream. These buffers behave very
differently from regular Wayland buffers; instead of each buffer
reperesenting an actual frame, the same buffer is attached over and
over again, and EGL API is used to switch the content of the OpenGL
texture associated with the buffer attached. It more or less
side-tracks the Wayland buffer handling.
It is implemented by creating a MetaWaylandEglStream object, dealing
with the EGLStream state. The lifetime of the MetaWaylandEglStream is
tied to the texture object (CoglTexture), which is referenced-counted
and owned by both the actors and the MetaWaylandBuffer.
When the buffer is reattached and committed, the EGLStream is triggered
to switch the content of the associated texture to the new content.
This means that one cannot keep old texture content around without
copying, so any feature relying on that will effectively be broken.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=773629
This commit adds support for using a EGLDevice and EGLStreams for
rendering on top of KMS instead of gbm. It is disabled by default; to
enable it pass --enable-egl-device to configure.
By default gbm is first tried, and if it fails, the EGLDevice path is
tried. If both fails, mutter will terminate just as before.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=773629
There is no way to pass any backend specific parameters to a
CoglFramebuffer until after it has been allocated by
cogl_framebuffer_allocate() (since this is where the winsys/platform
fields are initialized). This can make it hard to actually allocate
anything, if the platform depends on some backend specific data.
A proper solution would be to refactor the onscreens and framebuffers to
use a GObject based type system instead of the home baked Cogl one, but
that'll be left for another day. For now, allocate in two steps, one to
allocate the backend specific parts (MetaOnscreenNative), and one to
allocate the actual onscreen framebuffer (via
meta_onscreen_native_allocate()).
So far there is nothing that forces this separation, but in the future
there will, for example EGLDevice's need to know about the CRTC in
order to create the EGLSurface.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=773629
A swap-buffers should never be issued when we are waiting for a flipped
callback, so instead of trying to handle a situation that sholud never
happen, warn instead.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=773629
When a swap failed with EACCES (possibly due to VT switching), don't
mark the framebuffer as 'in use', so that it'll be cleaned up properly
and not set as current.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=773629
For when there is no gbm available, for example when using
EGLDevice/EGLStream's, just fall back to the OpenGL texture based
cursor rendering path.

Drivers may be bad at guessing what is passed to eglGetDisplay, ending
up return non-functioning EGLDisplay's. Using eglGetPlatformDisplay

Lets use a pbuffer surface as a dummy surface instead of a gbm based
one, so that we don't need to rely on the availability of gbm to create
a dummy surface when there is no need for it.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=773629
Separate gbm initialization from general renderer initialization. Do
this even though no other initialization is done for now; later there
will will be other types of rendering mode, initialized in their own

Add proc symbol loading and helper functions for calling them, dealing
with errors etc. So far no extension symbols are loaded, only the
infrastructure is there.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=773629
In another step getting rid of the duplications introduced by Cogl,
use the equivalent GLib types where Cogl types previously used. While
CoglBool is not a typedef to gboolean, they are both typedefs to int,
and we already use GLib's TRUE/FALSE to set them.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=773629
Initialize the GError pointer used when creating the renderer. If an
error occurs, the error is expected to be NULL, otherwise it'll

The Clutter X11 backend can't drop CLUTTER_PEN_DEVICE and
CLUTTER_ERASER_DEVICE in favor of CLUTTER_TABLET_DEVICE without
losing information (as the driver will create one device for each).
So make MetaInputSettings cater for both sets of device types.

Its only purpose was caching settings applying to an stylus/tool, this
is now handled through ClutterInputDeviceTool evdev specific API, or
X device properties, so is not needed anymore.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=773779
Stylus configuration (stylus buttons, pressure) was handled
at the very high level, doing the button and pressure translations
right before sending these to wayland clients.
However, it makes more sense to store these settings into the
ClutterInputDeviceTool itself, and have clutter apply the config
at the lower level so 1) the settings actually apply desktop-wide,
not just in clients and 2) X11 and wayland may share similar
configuration paths. The settings are now just applied whenever
the tool enters proximity, in reaction to
ClutterDeviceManager::tool-changed.
This commit moves all handling of these two settings to
the clutter level, and removes the wayland-specific paths
