We have to deal with the data source going away. Even if we have a
reference to the server side data source, we can't do anything if the
client that provided the source went away. So just NULL the offers
source pointer in the destroy callback for the source.
This rename addresses a few problems around the split between core
Wayland and the wayland-demos repository.
1) Initially, we had one big repository with protocol code, sample
compositor and sample clients. We split that repository to make it
possible to implement the protocol without pulling in the sample/demo
code. At this point, the compositor is more than just a "demo" and
wayland-demos doesn't send the right message. The sample compositor
is a useful, self-contained project in it's own right, and we want to
move away from the "demos" label.
2) Another problem is that the wayland-demos compositor is often
called "the wayland compsitor", but it's really just one possible
compositor. Existing X11 compositors are expected to add Wayland
support and then gradually phase out/modularize the X11 support, for
example. Conversely, it's hard to talk about the wayland-demos
compositor specifically as opposed to, eg, the wayland protocol or a
wayland compositor in general.
We are also renaming the repo to weston, and the compositor
subdirectory to src/, to emphasize that the main "output" is the
compositor.
This is the other direction. The selection bridge will grab the X11
CLIPBOARD selection on behalf of the Wayland client when it sets the
Wayland selection. Right now only UTF-8 text is supported, but the
data types offered will be taken from the Wayland data source.
At initialization, if it fails in binding the socket or creating the
lock file then the pointer will be already freed and will result a
segfault when quiting the compositor.

With this the X server directory can become independent from the
installation prefix set by autoconf.
