Currently, the committed signal is emitted after the client has called
wl_surface.commit. However, this breaks with synchronized subsurfaces.
Notably, Firefox splits a web page in a bunch of smaller layers, which
can be backed by wl_subsurface objects.
All the subsurfaces are in the sync mode. If a layer needs to be
repainted, Firefox will commit the corresponding subsurface with a frame
callback.
Since the committed signal is emitted when the wl_surface.commit request
is invoked, kwin will schedule a new frame immediately. Meaning, that it
is quite likely that firefox will have old contents.
The right thing to do would be to schedule a frame when all the ancestors
of the layer subsurface have been committed.
This change re-jitters the commit logic so the committed signal is
emitted when a new state is applied to the surface. It also slightly
cleans up how SubSurfaceInterface::parentCommit() is called.
It will be nice to cleanup the commit logic further by calling the
surface role's commit hook unconditionally, i.e. not check whether it's
a subsurface. But doing so may result in infinite recursions. How to
clean up that is still TBD.
This change rewrites implementation of subsurfaces with qtwaylandscanner
and fixes various smaller issues, such as proper handling of position
updates for subsurfaces in the desync mode and getting rid of QPointer in
the public API.
Summary:
This change standardizes the behavior regarding the destructor request.
The destructor should destroy the resource and nothing else. The
Wayland library invokes the static unbind method once the resource is
destroyed. The implementation provided by Resource::Private::unbind
triggers a delete later on the Resource. So there is no need to trigger
a deleteLater from the destructor request callback.
This change adds a generic implementation to Resource::Private which is
now used by all inheriting classes replacing the custom implementations.
Test Plan:
For a few Resources the test is extended to ensure that the Resource
gets deleted on server side.

Required information is passed through the ctor of Private.
::create is still virtual as ShellSurfaceInterface is retrieving
client information. This can be fixed once we have a better wl_client
encapsulation class.
The Resource base class is supposed to be used by all interface
classes which get created for a wl_resource.
Most interface classes are adjusted, but there are some exceptions:
* BufferInterface: is different as the wl_resource is already created
* PointerInterface and KeyboardInterface: those two need changes, the
implementation differs from all other interface implementations.
This implements the subcompositor and subsurface protocol on both
Client and Server side.
Client:
New classes SubCompositor and SubSurface. The SubCompositor can be
created through the Registry and creates the SubSurface which is
bound to a Surface and has a parent Surface. The SubSurface class
provides convenient wrappers for all calls exposed in the
wl_subsurface interface.
Server:
New classes SubCompositorInterface and SubSurfaceInterface. Support
for all commands is added, though the API probably still can need
some fine tuning. The synchronized vs. desynchronized behavior is
not yet exposed in the API. This could also be delegated towards
the user of the library.
