This set of changes adds support for searching for a given config file
in the directories listed in $XDG_CONFIG_DIRS if it wasn't found in
$XDG_CONFIG_HOME or ~/.config. This allows packages to install custom
config files in /etc/xdg/weston, for example, thus allowing them to
avoid dealing with home directories.
To avoid a TOCTOU race the config file is actually open()ed during the
search. Its file descriptor is returned and stored in the compositor
for later use when performing subsequent config file parses.

struct weston_surface is now the only surface type we have (in core, shell.c
has shell_surface, of course). A lot of code gets simpler and we never
have to try to guess whether an API takes a wl_surface or a weston_surface.
Most backends relies on gettimeofday(2) for output repaint timestamps
but this is not a requirement. Before this patch repaints coming from
idle_repaint() always used gettimeofday(2) for timestamps. For backends
not using that time source this could cause large jumps between
timestamps.
To fix this, timestamps needs to always come from the backend. This
means that the backend needs to always be responsible of starting the
repaint loop in case that the repaint cannot start immediately.
The drm backend implementation is from the patch by Ander Conselvan de
Oliveira found here:

This state is used when the user switches the vt. It turns of rendering
and frame events, but doesn't set the DPMS state to off.
As a part of this change, also turn off the idle timer when entering
the SLEEPING or OFFSCREEN states, which fixes
https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=61910 (rpi backend
untested).
A client can reliably avoid allocating a second buffer per surface, if
the compositor sends the wl_buffer.release event before the frame
callback. To enable clients' single-buffering, release the wl_buffer
early if possible. Otherwise clients will double-buffer.
Releasing early is not possible, if the backend needs the buffer for
migrating a surface to or from a non-primary weston_plane. In that case,
a new buffer must arrive, before the old can be released. Backends will
indicate this by setting weston_surface:keep_buffer to 1 in
assign_planes().
A proper buffer reference in the backends would be better than the
keep_buffer flag, but that would require a per-surface backend private.
The rpi and DRM backends are updated to set keep_buffer, other backends
do not support planes, so do not have to set it.

The wl_buffer reference counting API has been inconsistent. You would
manually increment the refcount and register a destroy listener, as
opposed to calling weston_buffer_post_release(), which internally
decremented the refcount, and then removing a list item.
Replace both cases with a single function:
weston_buffer_reference(weston_buffer_reference *ref, wl_buffer *buffer)
Buffer is assigned to ref->buffer, while taking care of all the refcounting
and release posting. You take a reference by passing a non-NULL buffer, and
release a reference by passing NULL as buffer. The function uses an
internal wl_buffer destroy listener, so the pointer gets reset on
destruction automatically.
This is inspired by the pipe_resource_reference() of Mesa, and modified
by krh's suggestion to add struct weston_buffer_reference.
Additionally, when a surface gets destroyed, the associated wl_buffer
will send a release event. Often the buffer is already destroyed on
client side, so the event will be discarded by libwayland-client.
Compositor-drm.c is converted to use weston_buffer_reference.

Rename print_egl_error_state() to gl_renderer_print_egl_error_state()
and exports it.
Remove the copy of that function from the rpi backend, and call
the exported function instead.

Backends may move surfaces to different planes, in which case damage is
generated in the primary plane. This damage is usually passed to the
renderer, but in some cases the backend may decide to not render
anything (that's the case when drm compositor scans out a client
buffer). In that case the damage on the primary plane would be
discarded, leading to artifacts later.
This patch makes the backend's responsibility to clear the damage on
the primary plane, so that unrendered damage is kept for as long as
necessary.
This moves the EGLConfig, EGLContext and EGLDisplay fields into
gles2-renderer. It also moves EGLDisplay creation and EGLConfig
selection into gles2-renderer.
This introduces callbacks for output creation and destruction for the
gles2-renderer. This enables the gles2-renderer to have per-output
state. EGL surface creation is now done by the output_create callback
and the EGL surface is stored in the new per-output gles2-renderer
state. On the first output_create call, the gles2-renderer will setup
it's GL context. This is because EGL requires a EGL surface to be able
to use the GL context.
Dispmanx elements are like hardware overlays. Assign one weston_surface
to each overlay created, and the VideoCore will composite it on screen.
The maximum number of elements is configurable via the command line.
Specifying zero will disable the overlays (planes/elements) altogether,
and use only GLESv2 compositing.
You need an up-to-date Raspberry Pi firmware for:
- vc_dispmanx_resource_create(), that will also take stride. Otherwise
surfaces ending up in elements may show up as corrupted.
- off-line compositing support. The on-line compositing of elements
cannot handle too many elements. Look for the comments around
DEFAULT_MAX_PLANES in the code.
Elements must be double-buffered to avoid tearing. Therefore two buffers
(Dispmanx resources) are allocated for each element. A command line
option is added to allow single-buffering instead to save memory, with
the risk of tearing.
The page flip timer is replaced with the Dispmanx update completion
callback. The callback is executed in a separate thread, therefore a
pipe is set up to integrate properly with Weston core.
If not disabled, usually all surfaces are assigned into planes, and
nothing is composited in GLESv2. Planes do not support surface
transformations though, so compositing will automatically switch the
necessary surfaces to GLESv2 compositing as needed. Switching between
GLESv2 and elements may cause transient visual glitches and jerks.

Add a new backend for the Raspberry Pi.
This backend uses the DispmanX API to initialise the display, and create
an EGLSurface, so that GLESv2 rendering is shown on the "framebuffer".
No X server is involved. All compositing happens through GLESv2.
The created EGLSurface is specifically configured as buffer content
preserving, otherwise Weston wouuld show only the latest damage and
everything else was black. This may be sub-optimal, since we are not
alternating between two buffers, like the DRM backend is, and content
preserving may imply a fullscreen copy on each frame.
Page flips are not properly hooked up yet. The display update will
block, and we use a timer to call weston_output_finish_frame(), just
like the x11 backend does.
This backend handles the VT and tty just like the DRM backend does.
While VT switching works in theory, the display output seems to be
frozen while switched away from Weston. You can still switch back.
Seats and connectors cannot be explicitly specified, and multiple seats
are not expected.
Udev is used to find the input devices. Input devices are opened
directly, weston-launch is not supported at this time. You may need to
confirm that your pi user has access to input device nodes.
The Raspberry Pi backend is built by default. It can be build-tested
without the Raspberry Pi headers and libraries, because we provide stubs
in rpi-bcm-stubs.h, but such resulting binary is non-functional. If
using stubs, the backend is built but not installed.
VT and tty handling, and udev related code are pretty much copied from
the DRM backend, hence the copyrights. The rpi-bcm-stubs.h code is
copied from the headers on Raspberry Pi, including their copyright
notice, and modified.
