If we have repeats on for a full-sized image, then if the background
is displayed scaled (for example, in a desktop preview mode) then we
can get artifacts along the edge of the background where the repeat
of the opposite edge is blended in by bilinear scaling. So turn off
repeats when the screen and background image sizes match.

Add code to track and draw the root window background. The advantage of doing
it here as compared to in a plugin is that we can use the visiblity smarts
of MetaWindowGroup to optimize out drawing the background when obscured.
If handling other than tracking the _XROOTPMAP_ID property is desired in the
future, more functionality like setting the background from a file or doing
cross-fades can be added.
The new background actor is exposed to plugins via meta_plugin_get_background_actor()
similar to other exposed actors to allow cloning the background for use in
other displays. The actual class is not installed for public consumption at
the moment since it has no useful methods.

Create new cogl-utils.[ch] and move a helper function from
MetaShadowFactory there as meta_create_texture_material(); this
allows us to create single-layer materials from different parts of
Mutter and have them share the same template material.
Also expose a function for creating a 1x1 texture of a given
color meta_create_color_texture_4ub().

When in a partial stage paint, we can combine that with the visibility
information in MetaWindowGroup to further eliminate unneeded drawing.
Since there is no current Clutter API to access the current clip,
drop to using GL directly.

This is just a microptimization, as we pretty much always use
TFP (and do the check every time we set a pixmap),
we can let gcc generate better code here.

The Behaviour class and its implementations have been replaced by the
new animation framework API and by the constraints for layout-related
animations.
Currently, we need to make tests build, so we undef DISABLE_DEPRECATED
in specific test cases while they get ported.
For various reasons (mostly the stack tracker correctly predicting the
stacking order before getting events, but also because of the processing
that the compositor does to get the actor stacking order) the compositor
can be told to sync the stack when it has nothing to do. Detect this
at the last moment before actually telling Clutter to restack to avoid
triggering unnecessary redraws.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=634771
Since we can't distinguish a ConfigureEvent that indicates a raise
from a ConfigureEvent that indicates a move, we get lots of
STACK_OP_RAISE_ABOVE events for windows that are already in the
right place in the stacking order. Avoid queueing a restack in that
case.

Fullscreen and maximized windows never have visible shadows - the only
case where we would ever see them is if they bleed onto an adjacent
monitor and that looks bad.
It's small performance win to avoid computing them, and this also avoids
painting the top shadow for all maximized windows in GNOME Shell - since
the top panel isn't a X window, it doesn't factor into the computation
of what parts of windows are visible and maximized windows are computed
as having a top shadow.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=592382
These functions duplicate existing properties; they are added for
convenience and to avoid the GObject property code on some
performance critical painting paths.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=592382
Instead of making optimizing obscured shadows an all-or-none operation,
pass the clip region to meta_shadow_paint() and only paint the 9-slices
that are at least partially visible.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=592382
Instead of setting shadow parameters on individual windows, add the
idea of a "shadow class". Windows have default shadow classes based
on their frame and window type, which can be overriden by setting
the shadow-class property.
Each shadow class has separably configurable parameters for the
focused and unfocused state. New shadow classes can be defined with
arbitrary names.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=592382
Frame types will form the bases of shadow classes, which are strings,
so export the to-string function so that we can do the conversion
uniformly.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=592382
The basic MetaShadowFactory type is moved to a public header, while
the functions to fetch and paint shadows are kept private.
The public object will be used for configuration of shadows by
plugins.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=592382
For attached modal dialogs, we want the shadow to fade out at the top
as if the window was glued to the parent at the top. Add a
shadow-top-fade property to MetaWindowActor and the corresponding
parameter to meta_shadow_factory_get_shadow().
The internal implementation of MetaShadow is adjusted to work
in terms of an "inner border" and "outer border" instead of doing
the calculations in terms of an aggregate border and the spread
of the shadow. The old way of doing things gets clumsy when the
top_fade distance is added in as well.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=592382
Add a new frame type META_FRAME_TYPE_ATTACHED which is used for
attached modal dialogs.
The theme format version is bumped to 3.2, and attached windows
can have borders defined in a metacity-theme-3.xml as:
<window version=">= 3.2" type="attached" style_set="[name]"/>
If no style is defined for "attached", drawing will fall back
to the "border" type.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=592382
The current shadow code just uses a single fixed texture (the Gaussian
blur of a rectangle with a fixed blur radius) for drawing all window
shadows. This patch adds the ability
* Implement efficient blurring of arbitrary regions by approximating
a Gaussian blur with multiple box blurs.
* Detect when multiple windows can use the same shadow texture by
converting their shape into a size-invariant MetaWindowShape.
* Add properties shadow-radius, shadow-x-offset, shadow-y-offset,
shadow-opacity to allow the shadow for a window to be configured.
* Add meta_window_actor_paint() and draw the shadow directly
from there rather than using a child actor.
* Remove TidyTextureFrame, which is no longer used

The paint volume structure is cached in the Actor it references, and
this causes a reference cycle.
The paint volume is going to be used when painting, so the actor must
still be valid - otherwise Clutter will bail out far before than
accessing the actor pointer in ClutterPaintVolume.
Otherwise, we could have used dispose() to check for a valid actor and
remove a reference if the actor field is !NULL; it feels less clean,
though, since we're effectively managing an extra reference on
ourselves.

Building the API reference for Cogl 2.0 is fairly confusing: the API
itself is experimental and for internal use only -- though we want
feedback for it.
Let's build the API reference only when Clutter is configured with a
specific configure switch, so that people that wish to give feedback on
the API and its documentation can do it.
Starting from the 2.27 cycle, GLib is exposing a monotonic clock with
microseconds granularity throughout the time-based API. We can start
using it, given that the old, non-monotonic version is going to be
deprecated by the same cycle.
GLib 2.28 will deprecate GTimeVal and related API in favour of
standardizing on microseconds granularity for all time-based API.
Clutter should switch too.
All of the current users of GTimeVal convert to milliseconds when
doing time operations, and use GTimeVal only as storage. This can
effectively be replaced by a gint64.
The Master Clock uses a microsecond resolution, except when interacting
with the main loop itself, since the main loop has a millisecond
resolution - at least until Ryan Lortie manages to switch that too to
microseconds on Linux.
The clutter_timeline_do_tick() function was erroneously not privatized,
but it was still assumed to be private; we should just remove it from
the public symbols.
For internal usage, writing:
clutter_actor_get_name (actor) != NULL
? clutter_actor_get_name (actor)
: G_OBJECT_TYPE_NAME (actor)
is overly verbose and does two type checks. A simple, internal method
for getting the same result without type checks would be much more
appreciated.
