As things are, even when mode=current is specified on the .ini file,
a full modeset is needed (and done), which causes a very noticeable
screen blinking. That is because setting the max_bpc on a connector
needs full modesetting.
The idea here is that if mode=current on the .ini, no modesetting
should be done, so the current max_bpc is programmed into the
connector.
But if a custom max-bpc=... is specified, that will be used instead,
even if mode=current on the .ini

Trying to do HDR with XRGB8888 is a bit like using RGB565 on SDR: you
get visible color quantization and banding in gradients (without dithering
which Weston does not implement yet, and might not work too well for HDR
anyway).
Therefore, on any HDR mode, default output framebuffer format to 10 bpc
instead of 8 bpc.
Ideally we'd also optionally try 16F or 16 bpc formats, but automatic
fallbacks for those are more complicated to arrange. You can still
configure 16F or 16 bpc manually.
This patch also moves the default format setting from
drm_output_set_gbm_format() to drm_output_enable(), because setting the
default now requires eotf_mode. Frontends may call set_gbm_format()
first and set eotf_mode next. This does create an awkward situation for
outputs that a frontend disables and re-enables. This patch here makes
sure that the old output configuration remains, but changing eotf_mode
may not change the default format. One needs to call
set_gbm_format(NULL) to re-evaluate the default format. Resetting the
format on drm_output_deinit() would lose the current setting.
DRM_FORMAT_INVALID was introduced in libdrm 2.4.95 which we already
hard-depend on.

In the test suite we may want to run a DRM-backend test on a
non-default seat, which may not have a input device associated.
Weston's default behavior is to not open if input devices are
not found, as it may cause troubles. For instance, Weston can
open but if no input device is set than the user can not
interact or leave it.
Add flag --continue-without-input to DRM-backend so we can run
these types of tests with no input. Notice that this won't force
the compositor to skip opening a input device if it finds it on
the non-default seat.

It was discovered in issue #99 that the implementations of the 90 and 270
degree rotations were actually the inverse of what the Wayland specification
spelled out. This patch fixes the libweston implementation to follow the
specification.
As a result, the behaviour of the the weston.ini transform key also changes. To
force all users to re-think their configuration, the transform key values are
also changed. Since Weston and libweston change their behaviour, the handling
of clients' buffer transform changes too.
All the functions had their 90/270 cases simply swapped, probably due to
confusion of whether WL_OUTPUT_TRANSFORM_* refers to rotating the monitor or
the content.
Hint: a key to understanding weston_matrix_rotate_xy(m, c, s) is that the
rotation matrix is formed as
c -s
s c
that is, it's column-major. This fooled me at first.
Fixing window.c fixes weston-terminal and weston-transformed.
In simple-damage, window_get_transformed_ball() is fixed to follow the proper
transform definitions, but the fix to the viewport path in redraw() is purely
mechanical. The viewport path looks broken to me in the presence of any
transform, but it is not this patch's job to fix it.
Screen-share fix just repeats the general code fix pattern, I did not even try
to understand that bit.

Allow a gstreamer pipeline to be configurable via an weston.ini. It is
necessary that source is appsrc, its name is "src", and sink name is
"sink" in pipeline. Also, remoting plugin ignore port and host
configuration if the gst-pipeline is specified.
Remoting plugin support streaming image of virtual output on drm-backend
to remote output. By appending remote-output section in weston.ini,
weston loads remoting plugin module and creates virtual outputs via
remoting plugin. The mode, host, and port properties are configurable in
remote-output section.
This plugin send motion jpeg images to client via RTP using gstreamer.
Client can receive by using following pipeline of gst-launch.
gst-launch-1.0 rtpbin name=rtpbin \
udpsrc caps="application/x-rtp,media=(string)video,clock-rate=(int)90000,
encoding-name=JPEG,payload=26" port=[PORTNUMBER] !

udpsrc port=[PORTNUMBER+1] ! rtpbin.recv_rtcp_sink_0 \
rtpbin.send_rtcp_src_0 !
udpsink port=[PORTNUMBER+2] sync=false async=false
where, PORTNUMBER is specified in weston.ini.

This patch adds information about the new resolution-format that can
be specified by a user in weston.ini to select a CEA mode. CEA defines
timing of a video mode, which is considered as a standard for
HDMI certification and compliance testing. It defines each and every
parameter, of a video mode, like h/vactive,h/vfront h/vback etc.,
including aspect-ratio information. The drm layer, specifies the
aspect-ratio information in user-mode flag bits 19-22. For the non-CEA
modes a value of 0 is given in the aspect-ratio flag bits. Each
CEA-mode is identified by a unique, Video Identification Code (VIC).
For example, VIC=4 is 1280x720@60 aspect-ratio 16:9.
This mode will be different than a non-CEA mode 1280x720@60 0:0.
The new mode-format helps to differentiate between the CEA and
non-CEA modes, by letting user specify aspect-ratio along with other
paremeters: mode=widthxheight@rr ratio.
This helps when certification testing is done, in tests like 7-27,
the HDMI analyzer applies a particular CEA mode, and expects the
applied mode to be with exactly same timings, including the
aspect-ratio and VIC field.

Add a new output section key "same-as" for configuring clone mode. An
output marked "same-as" another output will be configured identically to
the other output.
The current implementation supports only CRTC sharing for clone mode.
Independent CRTC clone mode cannot be supported until output layout
logic is moved from libweston into the frontend and libweston's damage
tracking issues stemming from overlapping outputs are solved.
Quite a lot of infrastructure is needed to properly configure clone
mode. The implemented logic allows easy addition of independent CRTC
clone mode once libweston supports it. The idea is that wet_layoutput is
the item to be laid out and all weston_outputs a wet_layoutput
contains show exactly the same area of the desktop.
The configuration logic attempts to automatically fall back to creating
more weston_outputs when all heads do not work under the same
weston_output. For now, the fallback path ends with an error message.
Enabling a weston_output is bit complicated, because one needs to first
collect all relevant heads, try to attach them all to the weston_output,
and then back up head by head until enabling the weston_output succeeds.
A new weston_output is created for the left-over heads and the process
is repeated.
CRTC-sharing clone mode is the most efficient clone mode, offering
synchronized scanout timings, but it is not always supported by
hardware.
