protocol: Add content-protection protocol

This protocol allows a client to ask the compositor to only allow it to
be displayed on a "secure" output. This initial version of the protocol
supports HDCP.

This is loosely based on the chromium secure-output protocol [1].

This protocol is mostly useful for closed system, where the client can
trust the compositor, such as set-top boxes. This is not a way to
implement any kind of Digital Rights Management on desktops. The
compositor would be free to lie to the client, anyway.

<description summary="Protocol for providing secure output">
This protocol specifies a set of interfaces used to provide
content-protection for e.g. HDCP, and protect surface contents on the
secured outputs and prevent from appearing in screenshots or from being
visible on non-secure outputs.
A secure-output is defined as an output that is secured by some
content-protection mechanism e.g. HDCP, and meets at least the minimum
required content-protection level requested by a client.
The term content-protection is defined in terms of HDCP type 0 and
HDCP type 1, but this may be extended in future.
This protocol is not intended for implementing Digital Rights Management on
general (e.g. Desktop) systems, and would only be useful for closed systems.
As the server is the one responsible for implementing
the content-protection, the client can only trust the content-protection as
much they can trust the server.
In order to protect the content and prevent surface contents from appearing
in screenshots or from being visible on non-secure outputs, a client must
first bind the global interface "weston_content_protection" which, if a
compositor supports secure output, is exposed by the registry.
Using the bound global object, the client uses the "get_protection" request
to instantiate an interface extension for a wl_surface object.
This extended interface will then allow surfaces to request for
content-protection, and also to censor the visibility of the surface on
non-secure outputs. Client applications should not wait for the protection
to change, as it might never change in case the content-protection cannot be
achieved. Alternatively, clients can use a timeout and start showing the
content in lower quality.
Censored visibility is defined as the compositor censoring the protected
content on non-secure outputs. Censoring may include artificially reducing
image quality or replacing the protected content completely with
placeholder graphics.
Censored visibility is controlled by protection mode, set by the client.
In "relax" mode, the compositor may show protected content on non-secure
outputs. It will be up to the client to adapt to secure and non-secure
presentation. In "enforce" mode, the compositor will censor the parts of
protected content that would otherwise show on non-secure outputs.

<interface name="weston_content_protection" version="1">
<description summary="content protection global interface">
The global interface weston_content_protection is used for exposing the
content protection capabilities to a client. It provides a way for clients
to request their wl_surface contents to not be displayed on an output
below their required level of content-protection.
Using this interface clients can request for a weston_protected_surface
which is an extension to the wl_surface to provide content-protection, and
set the censored-visibility on the non-secured-outputs.

<description summary="content protection interface to a wl_surface">
An additional interface to a wl_surface object, which allows a client to
request the minimum level of content-protection, request to change the
visibility of their contents, and receive notifications about changes in
content-protection.
A protected surface has a 'status' associated with it, that indicates
what type of protection it is currently providing, specified by
content-type. Updates to this status are sent to the client
via the 'status' event. Before the first status event is sent, the client
should assume that the status is 'unprotected'.
A client can request a content protection level to be the minimum for an
output to be considered secure, using the 'set_type' request.
It is responsibility of the client to monitor the actual
content-protection level achieved via the 'status' event, and make
decisions as to what content to show based on this.
The server should make its best effort to achieve the desired
content-protection level on all of the outputs the client's contents are
being displayed on. Any changes to the content protection status should be
reported to the client, even if they are below the requested
content-protection level. If the client's contents are being displayed on
multiple outputs, the lowest content protection level achieved should be
reported.
A client can also request that its content only be displayed on outputs
that are considered secure. The 'enforce/relax' requests can achieve this.
In enforce mode, the content is censored for non-secure outputs.
The implementation of censored-visibility is compositor-defined.
In relax mode there are no such limitation. On an attempt to show the
client on unsecured output, compositor would keep on showing the content
and send the 'status' event to the client. Client can take a call to
downgrade the content.
If the wl_surface associated with the protected_surface is destroyed,
the protected_surface becomes inert.

Informs the server about the type of content. The level of

a valid protection type the compositor does not implement or cannot
achieve.
The requested content protection is double-buffered, see

<event name="status">
<description summary="security status changed">
This event is sent to the client to inform about the actual protection
level for its surface in the relax mode.
The 'type' argument indicates what that current level of content
protection that the server has currently established.
The 'status' event is first sent, when a weston_protected_surface is
created.
Until this event is sent for the first time, the client should assume
that its contents are not secure, and the type is 'unprotected'.
Possible reasons the content protection status can change is due to
change in censored-visibility mode from enforced to relaxed, a new
connector being added, movement of window to another output, or,
the client attaching a buffer too large for what the server may secure.
However, it is not limited to these reasons.
A client may want to listen to this event and lower the resolution of
their content until it can successfully be shown securely.
In case of "enforce" mode, the client will not get any status event.
If the mode is then changed to "relax", the client will receive the
status event.
