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".

MetaDisplay does a lot of things, and is a central part to anything
window management. To let Wayland units have an easier time tearing
down, make it so that the Wayland infrastructure is terminated before
MetaDisplay.
This also makes sure that X11 support is turned off, so that we don't
stumble upon Xwayland terminating due to the Wayland socket connection
being broken. Will mitigate that in a better way in a later commit.

In non-systemd managed session we are unable to start services on
demand. Instead, gnome-session will start everything at login time,
including any X11 related service (i.e. gsd-xsettings).
However, in order to start gsd-xsettings, Xwayland needs to be started
already. Otherwise it will connect to GNOME_SETUP_DISPLAY and login will
hang at that point.
Fix this by detecting whether mutter is running in a systemd unit. If it
is, we assume that we are systemd managed and the machinery to start the
services works fine. If not, we assume that the session management may
unconditionally try to start X11 related services and Xwayland must be
started in order to not block this.

Make it possible to create persintent virtual monitors using command
line argument. This will not be the only way to create virtual monitors,
the primary way will be using the screen cast API, but using command
line argumenst is convenient for debugging purposes.

This makes it possible to pass custom properties to backends when
constructing tests. This will be used to create "headless" native
backend instances for testing the headless native backend.
Part-of: <https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/-/merge_requests/1698>
Make it possible to pass --headless as a command line argument in order
to turn the native backend "headless". This currently doesn't do
anything, but the intention is that it should not use logind nor KMS,
and work completely headless with only virtual outputs.

meta_run() is still left intact and does the same as before; the new
functions are only intended to be used by tests, as they may need to set
things up after starting up. Doing so linearly in the test case is much
easier than adding callbacks, so meta_run() is split up to make this
possible.

Move Wayland support (i.e. the MetaWaylandCompositor object) made to be
part of the backend. This is due to the fact that it is needed by the
backend initialization, e.g. the Wayland EGLDisplay server support.
The backend is changed to be more involved in Wayland and clutter
initialization, so that the parts needed for clutter initialization
happens before clutter itself initialization happens, and the rest
happens after. This simplifies the setup a bit, as clutter and Wayland
init now happens as part of the backend initialization.

Otherwise we'll get the warning
../src/core/main.c: In function 'meta_test_init':

when building without Wayland.

Since Clutter's backend relies on MetaBackend now, initialzation has
to go through meta_init(), both in mutter and in gnome-shell.
However the compositor enum and backend gtype used to enforce the
environment used for tests are private, so instead expose a test
initialization function that can be used from both mutter and
gnome-shell.

While leaving the runtime checks in place, requiring xrandr 1.5 at build
time allows us to remove some seemingly unnecessary conditional
inclusion of functionality.
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.
If we wait with opening the X11 window decoration GDK connection, we
might end up with a terminated X11 server before we finish
initializing, depending on the things happening after spawning Xwayland
and before opening the MetaX11Dispaly. In gnome-shell, this involves
e.g. creating a couple of temporary X11 connections, and on disconnect,
if they happen to be the last client, the X server will terminate
itself.

- Stop using CurrentTime, introduce META_CURRENT_TIME
- Use g_get_monotonic_time () instead of relying on an
X server running and making roundtrip to it

This is in order to force running as a X11 window manager/compositing
manager. Useful for debugging and other cases where the automatic
detection does not work as expected.

Split up the X11 backend into two parts, one for running as a
Compositing Manager, and one for running as a nested Wayland
compositor.
This commit also cleans up the compositor configuration calculation,
attempting to make it more approachable.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=777800
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/.

When launching a GNOME session from a text-mode VT, the logind session
type is unlikely to be set to either "wayland" or "x11". We search for a
supported session type first with logind and then with
$XDG_SESSION_TYPE. As a fallback, we also test $DISPLAY in case of a
"tty" logind session to support starting through xinit. Ideally, such
setups should set XDG_SESSION_TYPE=x11.
If no supported session type is found, we throw an error.

Make it possible to force mutter to start as a X11 compositing/window
manager. This is needed when intending to start mutter as an X11 window
manager while running inside a Wayland session, for example when
intending to debug it in Xephyr.

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.

As of "core: start as wayland display server when
XDG_SESSION_TYPE=wayland" it is no longer possible to run a nested
mutter Wayland session on top of another Wayland session. This patch
adds a command line argument to make it possible to force mutter to
start as a nested compositor.
