Jonas Ådahl bf6dde87f8 compositor: Make sure _NET_WM_FRAME_DRAWN timestamp has the right scope
The timestamp sent with _NET_WM_FRAME_DRAWN should be in "high
resolution X server timestamps", meaning they should have the same scope
as the built in X11 32 bit unsigned integer timestamps, i.e. overflow at
the same time.

This was not done correctly when mutter had determined the X server used
the monotonic clock, where it'd just forward the monotonic clock,
confusing any client using _NET_WM_FRAME_DRAWN and friends.

Fix this by 1) splitting the timestamp conversiot into an X11 case and a
display server case, where the display server case simply clamps the
monotonic clock, as it is assumed Xwayland is always usign the monotonic
clock, and 2) if we're a X11 compositing manager, if the X server is
using the monotonic clock, apply the same semantics as the display
server case and always just clamp, or if not, calculate the offset every
10 seconds, and offset the monotonic clock timestamp with the calculated
X server timestamp offset.

This fixes an issue that would occur if mutter (or rather GNOME Shell)
would have been started before a X11 timestamp overflow, after the
overflow happened. In this case, GTK3 clients would get unclamped
timestamps, and get very confused, resulting in frames queued several
weeks into the future.
