The compositing timing algorithm assumes that glXSwapBuffers() and
eglSwapBuffers() block. While this was true long time ago with NVIDIA
drivers, nowadays, it's not the case. The NVIDIA driver queues
several buffers in advance and if the application runs out of them,
it will block. With Mesa driver, swapping buffer was never blocking.
This change makes the render backends swap buffers right after ending
a compositing cycle. This may potentially block, but it shouldn't be
an issue with modern drivers. In case it gets proven, we can move
glXSwapBuffers() and eglSwapBuffers() in a separate thread.
Note that this change breaks the compositing timing algorithm, but
it's already sort of broken with Mesa drivers.
Currently, the OpenGLBackend and the QPainterBackend have hooks to
indicate the start and the end of compositing cycle, but in both cases,
the hooks have different names. This change fixes that inconsistency.
In order to allow per screen rendering, we need the Compositor to be
able to drive rendering on each screen. Currently, it's not possible
because Scene::paint() paints all screen.
With this change, the Compositor will be able to ask the Scene to paint
only a screen with the specific id.
The main advantage of SPDX license identifiers over the traditional
license headers is that it's more difficult to overlook inappropriate
licenses for kwin, for example GPL 3. We also don't have to copy a
lot of boilerplate text.
In order to create this change, I ran licensedigger -r -c from the
toplevel source directory.
Summary:
We want to translate by the monitor position, so that needs to be
the negative of the position.
But Kwin/KScreen treats 0 as the top of all monitors. GL treats 0 as
bottom, so that all needs inverting.
Hence this should be a positive y value for the viewport.
BUG: 386099
BUG: 385655
Test Plan:
Had two monitors
Side by side was - fine
Stacked vertically - still fine
Modded X code to extend in y instead of x.
3 monitors worked fine.
Nested wayland only seems to support one screen?

Summary:
To use eglCreateImageKhr for an X11 pixmap we need an EGLDisplay created
for the same XDisplay as the X11 pixmap. This means if we created an
EGLDisplay for a GBM device, we are not allowed to load a texture from
the X11 pixmap and can result in a crash in the driver.
Similar in the nested X11 setup the EGLDisplay is created for the
rendering window, but the X11 pixmaps are from the Xwayland server KWin
started. They don't belong to the same windowing system.
This change addresses this problem by moving the loading of X11 pixmaps
from AbstractEglTexture to EglTexture of the EglOnX11Backend. Thus for
any usage on a non X11 platform we cannot hit the code path any more.
In addition the nested X11 platform can indicate that it doesn't support
it and thus also doesn't go through the code path.
Test Plan: Tested standalone and nested X11 platform
