When interactively resizing some views (eg. Nautilus), new transactions
are added to the queue faster than the client can process them.
Previously, we would wait for the entire queue to be ready before
applying any of them, but in this case the transactions would time out,
giving the client choppy performance.
This changes the queue handling so it applies the transactions up to the
first waiting transaction, without waiting for the entire queue to be
ready.
Rather than maintain copies of the entire focus stack, this PR
transactionises the focus by introducing two new properties to the
container state and using those when rendering.
* `bool focused` means this container has actual focus. Only one
container should have this equalling true in its current state.
* `struct sway_container *focus_inactive_child` points to the immediate
child that was most recently focused (eg. for tabbed and stacked
containers).
We currently have several ways of setting debug flags, including command
line arguments, environment variables, and compile-time macros. This
replaces the lot with command line flags.
This PR changes the way we handle transactions to a more simple method.
The new method is to mark containers as dirty from low level code
(eg. arranging, or container_destroy, and eventually seat_set_focus),
then call transaction_commit_dirty which picks up those containers and
runs them through a transaction. The old methods of using transactions
(arrange_and_commit, or creating one manually) are now no longer
possible.
The highest-level code (execute_command and view implementation
handlers) will call transaction_commit_dirty, so most other code just
needs to set containers as dirty. This is done by arranging, but can
also be done by calling container_set_dirty.
If we set an instruction as ready twice, it decreases the transaction's
num_waiting a second time and applies the transaction earlier than it
should. This no doubt has undesired effects, probably resulting in a use
after free.
Hopefully fixes the first part of #2207.
A flash of background was happening for two reasons:
1) We were using the xsurface's dimensions to check if the surface is
ready, but these are pending dimensions.
2) In my particular setup, the default geometry of the xsurface does not
intersect any output, which prevented it from receiving a frame done
event. This made the transaction time out and the client would only
redraw once it's been rendered.
* The arrange_foo functions are now replaced with arrange_and_commit, or
with manually created transactions and arrange_windows x2.
* The arrange functions are now only called from the highest level
functions rather than from both high level and low level functions.
* Due to the previous point, view_set_fullscreen_raw and
view_set_fullscreen are both merged into one function again.
* Floating and fullscreen are now working with transactions.
