In order to make things more and more asynchronus and to each time we
paint be an isolated event, that can be potentially be applied
individually or together with other updates, make it so that each time
we draw, we use the transient MetaFrameNative (ClutterFrame) instance to
carry a KMS update for us.
For this to work, we also need to restructure how we apply mode sets.
Previously we'd amend the same KMS update each frame during mode set,
then after the last CRTC was composited, we'd apply the update that
contained updates for all CRTC.
Now each CRTC has its own KMS update, and instead we put them in a per
device table, and whenever we finished painting, we'll merge the new
update into any existing one, and then finally once all CRTCs have been
composited, we'll apply an update that contains all the mode sets for all
relevant CRTCs on a device.

The rest of debug flag details are in util.c and util.h, make things
less scattered by moving the rest to util.c too.
While at it, put the coredump:ability setting needed for being suid
there too, so we have a common place for initializing "debug utils".

Make meson link libmutter using -fvisibility=hidden, and introduce META_EXPORT
and META_EXPORT_TEST defines to mark a symbols as visible.
The TEST version is meant to be used to flag symbols that are only used
internally by mutter tests, but that should not be considered public API.
This allows us to be more precise in selecting what is exported and what is
not, without the need of a version-script file that would be more complicated
to maintain.

The order and way include macros were structured was chaotic, with no
real common thread between files. Try to tidy up the mess with some
common scheme, to make things look less messy.
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/.

Introduce two new clutter backends: MetaClutterBackendX11 and
MetaClutterBackendNative. They are so far only wrap ClutterBackendX11
and ClutterBackendEglNative respectively, but the aim is to move things
from the original clutter backends when needed.

Switching meta/util.h to gi18n.h was wrong, mutter is a library
and needs gi18n-lib.h, but that cannot be included from a public
header (since it depends on config.h or command line options),
so split util.h into a public and a private part.
