When you need to start Weston via weston-launch, systemd unit, or any
other runner, it is annoying to try to get in with a debugger,
especially if the thing you are interested in happens at start-up. To
make it easy, a new option is introduced.
The new option, implemented both as a command line option and a
weston.ini option, raises SIGSTOP early in the start-up, before the
weston_compositor has been created. This allows one to attach a debugger
at a known point in execution, and resume execution with SIGCONT.

It is useful to print the backtrace regardless of whether we have a
compositor and a backend initialized yet. Move catch_signals() to the
earliest point in main() and protect the SEGV handler from dereferencing
NULL when we don't yet have a compositor or a backend.
The SEGV handler uses weston_log(), so cannot move catch_signals() any
earlier.

Weston will not repaint until previous update has been acked by a
pageflip event coming from the drm driver. However, some buggy drivers
won’t return those events or will stop sending them at some point and
Weston output repaints will completely freeze. To ease developers’ task
in testing their drivers, this patch makes compositor-drm use a timer
to detect cases where those pageflip events stop coming.
This timeout implementation is software only and includes basic
features usually found in a watchdog. We simply exit Weston gracefully
with a log message and an exit code when the timout is reached.
The timeout value can be set via weston.ini by adding a
pageflip-timeout=<MILLISECONDS> entry under [core]
section. Setting it to 0 disables the timeout feature.
v2:
- Made sure we would get both the pageflip and the vblank events before
stopping the timer.
- Reordered the error and success cases in
drm_output_pageflip_timer_create() to be more in line with the rest
of the code.
v3:
- Reordered (de)arming of the timer with the code around it to avoid it
being rearmed before the current dearming.
- Return the proper value for the dispatcher in the pageflip_timeout
callback.
- Also display the output name in case the timer fires.
v4:
- Reordered a forgotten timer rearming after its drmModePageFlip().

The third arg to strtol() specifies the base to assume for the number.
When 0 is passed, as is currently done in option-parser.c, hexadecimal
and octal numbers are permitted and automatically detected and
converted.
This change is an expansion of f6051cbab8
to cover the remaining strtol() calls in Weston, where the routine is
being used to read fds and pids - which are always expressed in base-10.
It also changes the calls in config-parser, used by
weston_config_section_get_int(), which in turn is being used to read
scales, sizes, times, rates, and delays; these are all expressed in
base-10 numbers only.
The benefit of limiting this to base-10 is to eliminate surprises when
parsing numbers from the command line. Also, by making the code
consistent with other usages of strtol, it may make it possible to
factor out the common code in the future.

This actually had nothing to do with the fbdev backend, really. Fbdev
was just a convenient platform to plug in the EGL init code and load
GL-renderer. Fbdev itself was not used at all in this case.
Fbdev should be forgotten and die, as we have better interfaces for
accelerated rendering and for controlling displays. It may be a bit too
harsh to remove the whole fbdev backend just yet, but let us at least
simplify it this much.
Fbdev+EGL has been the unholy union used by proprietary driver stacks of
hardware vendors in the non-PC world as a quick and dirty way to get
something out on the screen. In these cases it is actually the EGL
implementation that does everything internally, fbdev is not needed.
Fbdev was never meant for the sort anyway.
If anyone still needs this use case, I recommend sticking with a
outdated Weston to match your outdated platform. Or if you really
insist, write a new backend that does not pretend to use fbdev and just
initializes EGL and GL-renderer.

This patch completely removes the Raspberry Pi backend and the renderer.
The backend and the renderer were written to use the proprietary
DispmanX API available only on the Raspberry Pi, to demonstrate what the
tiny computer is capable of graphics wise. They were also used to
demonstrate how Wayland and Weston in particular could leverage hardware
compositing capabilities that are not OpenGL. The backend was first
added in e8de35c922, in 2012.
Since then, the major point has been proven. Over time, support for the
rpi-backend diminished, it started to deteriorate and hinder Weston
development. On May 11, I tried to ask if anyone actually cared about
the rpi-backend, but did not get any votes for keeping it:
https://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/wayland-devel/2016-May/028764.html
The rpi-backend is a good example of how using an API that is only
available for specific hardware, even more so as it is only available
with a proprietary driver stack, is not maintainable in the long run.
Most developers working on Weston either just cannot, or cannot bother
to test things also on the RPi. Breakage creeps in without anyone
noticing. If someone actually notices it, fixing it will require a very
specific environment to be able to test. Also the quality of the
proprietary implementation fluctuated. There are reports that RPi
firmware updates randomly broke Weston, and that nowadays it is very
hard to find a RPi firmware version that you could expect to work with
Weston if Weston itself was not broken. We are not even sure what is
broken nowadays.
This removal does not leave Raspberry Pi users cold (for long), though.
There is serious work going on in implementing a FOSS driver stack for
Raspberry Pi, including modern kernel DRM drivers and Mesa drivers. It
might not be fully there yet, but the plan is to be able to use the
standard DRM-backend of Weston on the RPis. See:
http://dri.freedesktop.org/wiki/VC4/
The rpi-backend had its moments. Now, it needs to go. Good riddance!

weston_wayland_backend_config_release() does not bother reinitializing
the structure, it simply frees what is there. This leads to a structure
containing garbage, which might be a surprise.
Require, that if load_wayland_backend_config() fails, the caller must
call weston_wayland_backend_config_release() regardless.
