Add a flag to MetaSeatNative and MetaSeatImpl that tells it not to
attempt to create a libinput context. This is intended to be used when
mutter is to run headless, as in without any input devices other than
virtual ones.
Currently not hooked up.

Make it impossible to add individual includes of input thread objects.
This must go through meta-input-thread.h now, which should be enough
to make anyone think it twice.

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().

Push it a little bit down to the MetaSeatNative. As both the UI thread
and the input thread are interested in dealing with the xkb_keymap and
it is not meant to be used in different threads, keep 2 separate copies
around.
The keyboard map will always be set from the UI thread, so the xkb_keymap
owned by the MetaSeatNative (owned by the UI thread) can be considered
canonical.

Move most of the functional bits (those meant to run on a standalone
thread) to a MetaSeatImpl object. This object is managed by the MetaSeatImpl
and not exposed outside the friend MetaSeatNative/MetaInputDeviceNative/
MetaInputSettings classes.

Instead of letting the wayland bits maintain an always-software
cursor renderer, let the cursor renderer be managed by the backend,
and only hook to it (as we do for pointer cursor) in the wayland
bits.
ATM, make the cursor renderer still always-software, although
ideally we should allow moving the HW cursor management between
renderers.

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).

We had time unit conversion helpers (e.g. us2ms(), ns2us(), etc) in
multiple places. Clean that up by moving them all to a common file. That
file is clutter-private.h, as it's accessible by both from clutter/ and
src/.

This cannot be made to work reliably. Some factoids:
- Internal devices may be connected via USB.
- The ACPI spec provides the _PLD (Physical location of device) hook to
determine how is an USB device connected, with an anecdotal success
rate. Internal devices may be seen as external and vice-versa, there is
also an "unknown" value that is widely used.
- There may be non-USB keyboards, the old "AT Translated Set 2 Keyboard"
interface does not change on hotplugging.
- Libinput has an internal series of quirks to classify keyboards as
internal of external, also with an "unknown" value.
These heuristics are kinda hopeless to get right by our own hand. Drop
this external keyboard detection in the hope that there will be something
more deterministic to rely on in the future (e.g. the libinput quirks
made available to us directly or indirectly).

This taps on:
1) Touchscreen availability
2) Availability of external keyboards
3) Tablet mode switch, if existent
So we get this property enabled whenever it makes sense to show touch
focused features (eg. the OSK).

The end goal is to have all clutter backend code in src/backends. Input
is the larger chunk of it, which is now part of our specific
MutterClutterBackendNative, this extends to device manager, input devices,
tools and keymap.
This was supposed to be nice and incremental, but there's no sane way
to cut this through. As a result of the refactor, a number of private
Clutter functions are now exported for external backends to be possible.
