On newer versions of libinput, the event LIBINPUT_EVENT_POINTER_AXIS
has been deprecated in favour of LIBINPUT_EVENT_POINTER_SCROLL_WHEEL,
LIBINPUT_EVENT_POINTER_SCROLL_FINGER and
LIBINPUT_EVENT_POINTER_SCROLL_CONTINUOUS.
Where new events are provided by the backend, ignore
LIBINPUT_EVENT_POINTER_AXIS, receive high-resolution scroll events from
libinput and emit the appropiate wlr_pointer signal.
Currently, the "wlr_event_pointer_axis" event stores low-resolution
values in its "delta_discrete" field. Low-resolution values are always
multiples of one, i.e., 1 for one wheel detent, 2 for two wheel
detents, etc.
In order to simplify internal handling of events, always transform in
the backend from the low-resolution value into the high-resolution
value.
The transformation is performed by multiplying by 120. The 120 magic
number is used by the kernel and it is exposed to clients in the
"WLR_POINTER_AXIS_DISCRETE_STEP" constant.
Starting with Linux Kernel v5.0 two new axes are available for
mice that support high-resolution wheel scrolling: REL_WHEEL_HI_RES and
REL_HWHEEL_HI_RES.
Both axes send data in fractions of 120 where each multiple of 120
amounts to one logical scroll event. Fractions of 120 indicate a wheel
movement less than one detent.
Three new events are now available on libinput:
LIBINPUT_EVENT_POINTER_SCROLL_WHEEL,
LIBINPUT_EVENT_POINTER_SCROLL_FINGER, and
LIBINPUT_EVENT_POINTER_SCROLL_CONTINUOUS.
These events replace the LIBINPUT_EVENT_POINTER_AXIS event, so new
clients should simply ignore that event.
Also, two new APIs are available to access the high-resolution data:
libinput_event_pointer_get_scroll_value() and
libinput_event_pointer_get_scroll_value_v120().
Add a project argument (LIBINPUT_HAS_SCROLL_VALUE120) to allow
building against old versions of libinput or, where high-resolution
scroll is available, support it.
The destroy callback in wlr_touch_impl has been removed. The function
`wlr_touch_finish` has been introduced to clean up the resources owned by a
wlr_touch.
`wlr_input_device_destroy` no longer destroys the wlr_touch, attempting to
destroy a wlr_touch will result in a no-op.
The field `name` has been added to the wlr_touch_impl to be able to identify
a given wlr_touch device.
The destroy callback in wlr_tablet_tool_impl has been removed. The function
`wlr_tablet_tool_finish` has been introduced to clean up the resources owned by
a wlr_tablet_tool.
`wlr_input_device_destroy` no longer destroys the wlr_tablet_tool, attempting to
destroy a wlr_tablet_tool will result in a no-op.
The field `name` has been added to the wlr_tablet_tool_impl to be able to
identify a given wlr_tablet_tool device.
The destroy callback in wlr_tablet_pad_impl has been removed. The function
`wlr_tablet_pad_finish` has been introduced to clean up the resources owned by a
wlr_tablet_pad.
`wlr_input_device_destroy` no longer destroys the wlr_tablet_pad, attempting to
destroy a wlr_tablet_pad will result in a no-op.
The field `name` has been added to the wlr_tablet_pad_impl to be able to identify
a given wlr_tablet_pad device.
The destroy callback in wlr_switch_impl has been removed. The function
`wlr_switch_finish` has been introduced to clean up the resources owned by a
wlr_switch.
`wlr_input_device_destroy` no longer destroys the wlr_switch, attempting to
destroy a wlr_switch will result in a no-op.
The field `name` has been added to the wlr_switch_impl to be able to identify
a given wlr_switch device.
The destroy callback in wlr_pointer_impl has been removed. The function
`wlr_pointer_finish` has been introduced to clean up the resources owned by a
wlr_pointer.
`wlr_input_device_destroy` no longer destroys the wlr_pointer, attempting to
destroy a wlr_pointer will result in a no-op.
The field `name` has been added to the wlr_pointer_impl to be able to identify
a given wlr_pointer device.
The destroy member in wlr_keyboard_impl has been removed. The function
`wlr_keyboard_finish` has been introduce to clean up the resources owned by a
wlr_keyboard.
`wlr_input_device_destroy` no longer destroys the wlr_keyboard, attempting to
destroy a wlr_keyboard will result in a no-op.
The field `name` has been added to the wlr_keyboard_impl to be able to identify
a given wlr_keyboard device.
This field's ownership is unclear: it's in wlr_input_device, but
it's not managed by the common code, it's up to each individual
backend to use it and clean it up.
Since this is a backend implementation detail, move it to the
backend-specific structs.
[1] and [2] have introduced new wl_array usage in wlroots, but
contains a mistake: wl_array_for_each iterates over pointers to
the wl_array entries, not over entries themselves.
Fix all wl_array_for_each call sites. Name the variables "ptr"
to avoid confusion.

This new functions cleans up the common backend state. While this
currently only emits the destroy signal, this will also clean up
the renderer and allocator in upcoming patches.
