Add protocol for sub-surfaces, wl_subcompositor as the global interface, and wl_subsurface as the per-surface interface extension. This patch is meant to be reverted, once sub-surfaces are moved into Wayland core. Changes in v2: - Rewrite wl_subcompositor.get_subsurface description, and move mapping and commit details into wl_subsurface description. Check the wording in wl_subsurface.set_position description. - Add wl_subsurface.set_commit_mode request, and document it, with the commit_mode enum. Add bad_value error code for wl_subsurface. - Moved the protocol into Weston repository so we can land it upstream sooner for public exposure. It is to be moved into Wayland core later. - Add destroy requests to both wl_subcompositor and wl_subsurface, and document them. Experience has showed, that interfaces should always have a destructor unless there is a good and future-proof reason to not have it. Changes in v3: - Specify, that wl_subsurface will become inert, if the corresponding wl_surface is destroyed, instead of requiring a certain destruction order. - Replaced wl_subsurface.set_commit_mode with wl_subsurface.set_sync and wl_subsurface.set_desync. Parent-cached commit mode is now called synchronized, and independent mode is desynchronized. Removed commit_mode enum, and bad_value error. - Added support for nested sub-surfaces.

Weston Weston is the reference implementation of a Wayland compositor, and a useful compositor in its own right. Weston has various backends that lets it run on Linux kernel modesetting and evdev input as well as under X11. Weston ships with a few example clients, from simple clients that demonstrate certain aspects of the protocol to more complete clients and a simplistic toolkit. There is also a quite capable terminal emulator (weston-terminal) and an toy/example desktop shell. Finally, weston also provides integration with the Xorg server and can pull X clients into the Wayland desktop and act as a X window manager. Refer to http://wayland.freedesktop.org/building.html for buiding weston and its dependencies.
