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.

- the compositor ensures the calibrator window is shown in the correct

Libweston grabs all touch devices and prevents normal touch event
handling during the calibation sequence.

arbitrarily, it is not enabled by default. The compositor should take
measures to prevent unexpected access to the interface.
A client may upload a new calibration to the compositor. There is a

In addition to the normal touch event processing mode, introduce a new
mode for calibrating a touchscreen input device.
In the calibration mode, normal touch event processing is skipped, and
the raw events are forwarded to the calibrator instead. The calibrator
is not yet implemented, so the calls will be added in a following patch.
To switch between modes, two functions are added, one for entering each
mode. The mode switch happens only when no touches are down on any touch
device, to avoid confusing touch grabs and clients. To realise this, the
state machine has four states: prepare and actual state for both normal
and calibrator modes.
At this point nothing will attempt to change the touch event mode.
The new calibrator mode is necessary, because when calibrating a
touchscreen, the touch events must be routed to the calibration client
directly. The touch coordinates are expected to be wrong, so they cannot
go through the normal focus surface picking. The calibrator code also
cannot use the normal touch grab interface, because it needs to be able
to distinguish between different physical touch input devices, even if
they are part of the same weston_seat. This requirement makes
calibration special enough to warrant the new mode, a sort of "super
grab".

notify_touch_normalized() is an extended form of notify_touch(), adding
normalized touch coordinates which are necessary for calibrating a
touchscreen.
It would be possible to invert the transformation and convert from
global coordinates to normalized device coordinates in input.c without
adding this API, but this way it is more robust against code changes.
Recovering normalized device coordinates is necessary because libinput
calibration matrix must be given in normalized units, and it would be
difficult to compute otherwise. Libinput API does not offer normalized
coordinates directly either, but those can be fetched by pretending the
output resolution is 1x1.
Anticipating touch calibration mode, the old notify_touch() is renamed
into a private process_touch_normal(), and the new
notify_touch_normalized() delegates to it.

Both backends that support touch devices are updated to create

the device - calibration is the responsibility of the parent display
server. Libinput backend provides touch devices that can be calibrated,

In constrain_position(), this has no effect. The interactive move of a

Add a flag to pixman-renderer for initializing the output with a shadow
framebuffer. All backends were getting the shadow implcitly, so all
backends are modified to ask for the shadow explicitly.
Using a shadow buffer is usually beneficial, because read-modify-write
cycles (blending) into a scanout-capable buffer may be very slow. The
scanout framebuffer may also have reduced color depth, making blending
and read-back produce inferior results.
In some use cases though the shadow buffer might be just an extra copy
hurting more than it helps. Whether it helps or hurts depends on the
platform and the workload. Therefore let the backends control whether
pixman-renderer uses a shadow buffer for an output or not.

Pixman-renderer uses a single internal shadow buffer. It is enough to
composite the current damage into shadow, but the copy to hw buffer
needs to include the previous damage because of double-buffering in
DRM-backend.
This patch lets pixman-renderer do exactly that without compositing also
the previous damage on DRM-renderer.
Arguably weston_output should not have field previous_damage to begin
with, because it implies double-buffering, which e.g. EGL does not
guarantee. It would be better for each backend explicitly always provide
any extra damage that should be copied to hw.
