Goals:
- Extensibility: we need to be able to add new params to the calls
to render a texture/rect. For instance we'll need to add fences to
the render texture operation for explicit sync purposes.
- No implicit state: no more bind_buffer, begin, end.
- No matrices: these hurt Pixman and we don't need them.
- Clip regions for optimized damage repainting.

Add a src_box state field. Use the SRC_* KMS props in the DRM
backend, reject the layers in the Wayland backend (for now, we can
support it later via viewporter).
This allows callers to set a destination size different from the
buffer size to scale them.
The DRM backend supports this. The Wayland backend doesn't yet
(we'd need to wire up viewporter).
- Simplifies the backends
- Avoids having two ways to do the same thing: previously one could
disable a layer by either omitting it from wlr_output_state.layers,
or by passing a NULL buffer
- We can change our mind in the future: we can allow users to omit
some layers and define a meaning without breaking the API.

We've had this struct for a while. It'd be useful for compositors
if they want to manage the swap chains themselves instead of being
forced to use wlr_output's. Some compositors might also want to use
a swapchain without an output.
This is based on previous work [1] [2].
This new API allows compositors to display buffers without needing to
perform rendering operations. This API can be implemented on Wayland
using subsurfaces and on DRM using KMS planes.
Compared to [1], this approach leverages wlr_addon_set to let backends
attach their own private state to layers, removes the pending
state (necessary for interop with wlr_output_commit_state()) and
enum wlr_output_layer_state_field.

This is needed for compositors that want to reserve space for
XWayland panels. Such a feature can be useful in a "transitional"
setup, where only the X11 window manager and compositor is replaced
but other components of an X11 desktop environment are still used.
This change simply reads the X11 property; the compositor is free
to ignore it. Thus, compositors that don't want to support such a
"transitional" feature are not impacted.
v2: Update xwayland_surface_associate()
The invalid_destroy and invalid_unlock protocol errors aren't currently
sent by wlroots and instead left up to the compositor. However, we can
handle these as well without much additional complexity.
This also adds a missing wl_resource_destroy() call if the lock is inert
in lock_handle_unlock_and_destroy().
wlroots uses "// private state" comments to denote structure fields
which shouldn't be accessed by compositors, so let's drop
wlr_output_layout_output_state and inline its fields into
wlr_output_layout_output; this also simplifies layout output creation.
Query the formats at init time, then forget about the renderer.
This will allow wl_drm to be created with a list of formats instead
of a renderer, and will behave better after a GPU reset.
The backend no longer changes the output state behind the
compositor's back. Instead, compositors can listen to the "commit"
event and check for WLR_OUTPUT_STATE_ENABLED/WLR_OUTPUT_STATE_MODE.

Some compositors may want to use the linux-dmabuf-v1 implementation
with a completely custom renderer. Add a function to create the
global with a default feedback.
This is a first step towards moving texture uploading out of
wlr_compositor.
This commit allows compositors to opt-out of the texture uploading
by passing a NULL wlr_renderer. An immediate user of this is
gamescope, which currently implements a stub wlr_renderer just to
make wlr_compositor happy.
Let's just forward-declare struct wlr_backend instead.
We need to fixup the Vulkan renderer: it needs makedev(), which
got included by chance via <wlr/backend.h> → <wlr/backend/session.h>
→ <libudev.h>.
This can be used to know when wlr_xwayland_server decides to start
a new Xwayland process. At that point the wl_client has already
been created but the Xwayland process hasn't been started yet.
Up until now, wlr_backend_autocreate() created the wlr_session and
then stuffed it into struct wlr_multi_backend so that compositors
can grab it later.
This is an abuse of wlr_multi_backend and the wlr_backend API:
wlr_backend_get_session() and wlr_multi_backend.session only exist
to accomodate the needs of wlr_backend_autocreate(). What's more,
the DRM and libinput backends don't implement
wlr_backend_impl.get_session.
Instead, return the struct wlr_session to the compositor in the
wlr_backend_autocreate() call. wlr_backend_get_session() will be
removed in the next commit.
