Olivier Fourdan cea39b7f0c wayland/output: Always send xdg_output layout
With each wl_ouitput corresponding to a monitor, the logical monitor is
not part of the MetaWaylandOutput anymore.

Previously, send_xdg_output_events() would compare the old logical
monitor against the new one to determine whether the size and/or
position was changed and should be sent along with the xdg_output
events.

But that logic is now defeated as there is no old/new logical monitor
anymore, so the updated size or location would never be sent again.

Xwayland relies on this information to update its X11 clients and its
own internal root size, without this the X11 screen size and XRandR
information would never be updated.

To avoid that issue, always send the xdg_output size and location on
xdg_output events, Xwayland is smart enough to update its X11 clients
with XRandR only when the layout actually change.

Closes: https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/-/issues/1964
Fixes: bf7c3450 - Make each wl_output correspond to one monitor

Mutter

Mutter is a Wayland display server and X11 window manager and compositor library.

When used as a Wayland display server, it runs on top of KMS and libinput. It implements the compositor side of the Wayland core protocol as well as various protocol extensions. It also has functionality related to running X11 applications using Xwayland.

When used on top of Xorg it acts as a X11 window manager and compositing manager.

It contains functionality related to, among other things, window management, window compositing, focus tracking, workspace management, keybindings and monitor configuration.

Internally it uses a fork of Cogl, a hardware acceleration abstraction library used to simplify usage of OpenGL pipelines, as well as a fork af Clutter, a scene graph and user interface toolkit.

Mutter is used by, for example, GNOME Shell, the GNOME core user interface, and by Gala, elementary OS's window manager. It can also be run standalone, using the command "mutter", but just running plain mutter is only intended for debugging purposes.

Git messages

Commit messages should follow the GNOME commit message guidelines. We require an URL to either an issue or a merge request in each commit. Try to always prefix commit subjects with a relevant topic, such as compositor: or clutter/actor:, and it's always better to write too much in the commit message body than too little.

Default branch

The default development branch is main. If you still have a local checkout under the old name, use:

git checkout master
git branch -m master main
git fetch
git branch --unset-upstream
git branch -u origin/main
git symbolic-ref refs/remotes/origin/HEAD refs/remotes/origin/main
