On first commit, require a new buffer if the compositor called a
mode-setting function, even if the mode won't change. This makes it
so the swapchain is created now.
Stop trying to check whether the backend supports buffer-less modesets
because that makes everything more complicated. For instance, the
DRM backend doesn't need a new buffer if the previous DRM master left
the output enabled.

Some compositors want to have full control over the buffers attached
to the output, and don't want to use the internal swapchain. Such
compositors include KWinFT (allocates its buffers on its own) and
gamescope (uses a headless output without any buffers).
Let's just make output_ensure_buffer() a no-op in that case.
This field becomes stale too easily: for instance, see 6adca4089c
("backend/drm: don't unconditionally set desired_enabled").
Additionally, drm_connector_alloc_crtc() needs to do some weird
dance, restoring its previous value.
Instead, add a connector arg to realloc_crtcs() to indicate a new
connector we want to enable.
We were unconditonally setting desired_enabled = true for all
connected connectors. This makes realloc_crtcs() always keep a CRTC
active for these, even if the user doesn't want to enable them.
In the CREATE_DUMB error code-path, we'd only free() the buffer,
however it's already inserted in the alloc->buffers list at this
point.
Instead, make sure finish_buffer() is safe to call (by populating
drm_fd) and call that function.
INVALID means that the modifier is implicit. However dumb buffers
are guaranteed to be LINEAR, so let's just advertise this. Fixes
cursors with the DRM backend: cursor planes usually only support
LINEAR.
When running with the DRM backend, the Pixman renderer needs to
render the cursor buffer. However, DRM drivers only support linear
buffers for these in general, they don't support implicit modifiers
(aka. INVALID).
Advertise support for LINEAR in the Pixman renderer to fix this.
If we have a render node, it means there is a GPU which could be
used. We probably failed GL because of a kernel or Mesa issue.
Instead of automatically falling back to Pixman, error out.
This makes it more obvious to users when something goes wrong,
instead of silently exposing a slow unaccelerated desktop.

The Vulkan renderer is still experimental. If GL fails, we don't
want to automatically fall back to it by default.

When starting up, the compositor might call wlr_output_set_mode()
with a mode which is already the current one. wlroots will detect
this and make the wlr_output_set_mode() call a no-op. During the
next wlr_output_commit() call, wlroots will perform an atomic
commit without the ALLOW_MODESET flag.
This is an issue, because some drivers need ALLOW_MODESET even if
the mode is the same. For instance, if the FB stride or modifier
changed, some drivers require a modeset.
Add a new flag "allow_artifacts" which is set when the compositor
calls mode-setting functions. Use this flag to figure out whether
we want to perform atomic commits with ALLOW_MODESET.
(The name "allow_artifacts" is picked because ALLOW_MODESET is a
misnomer, see [1].)

Libdrm now uses enabled/disabled/auto for the drivers, migrate to these
new defaults.
Error message from meson:
wlroots| subprojects/wlroots/subprojects/libdrm/meson.build:21:0: Exception: Value "false" (of type "string") for combo option "Enable support for Intel's KMS API." is not one of the choices. Possible choices are (as string): "enabled", "disabled", "auto".`
Instead of using low-level wl_shm_buffer and wlr_dmabuf_v1_buffer
APIs, use the unified wlr_buffer APIs. That way it doesn't matter
what the exact wlr_buffer implementation is used, any which provides
the necessary capabilities (data_ptr or dmabuf) would work.
Simplifies the logic a bit, and will make the transition to wlr_shm
easier.

CTA-861-H defines a picture aspect ratio which may be attached to
each mode. This affects the way the sink will display the image.
See annexes H.1 and H.2 for examples.
There doesn't appear to be any good reason to warp the cursor to
the top-left corner when all outputs are disconnected; it's no more
valid than any other (x,y) point in that case.
The real-world case here is a user with a single external monitor
turning it off (which apparently counts as disconnected depending
on the connection type/hardware). For that user, it's desirable to
have the cursor remain in its original location when the monitor
is turned back on.
It should be considered a bug if a compositor sets a non-finite
cursor position, so fail loudly (in debug builds) if that happens.
The existing check in wlr_cursor_warp_closest() is now redundant,
and would silently hide such bugs, so remove it.
In wlr_output_attach_render(), stop setting
wlr_output.pending.buffer. This removes one footgun: using the
wlr_buffer at that stage is invalid, because rendering operations
haven't been flushed to the GPU yet. We need to wait until
output_clear_back_buffer() for the wlr_buffer to be used safely.
Instead, set wlr_output.pending.buffer in wlr_output_test() and
wlr_output_commit().
Additionally, move the output_clear_back_buffer() from
wlr_output_commit_state() to wlr_output_commit(). This reduces the
number of calls in the failure path.
We can just use pending.buffer instead. It's completely fine to
call wlr_swapchain_set_buffer_submitted() with a buffer which
doesn't come from the swapchain, in which case it's a no-op.
