In case the user has just the one display but they don't want to show it
in their main workspace when sharing video, allow creating a virtual
display.
This also will allow using remote devices as support displays.
As per the xdg-shell specification, the compositor can only attach
a wl_buffer to an xdg_surface once the compositor has sent an
xdg_surface.configure event. Previously, there was a race condition
in which WaylandOutput objects were added/enabled on creation, making
it possible for the EglWaylandOutputs to be set up and for
EglWaylandBackend to draw a frame (thereby attaching a buffer), all
before the xdg_surface.configure configure event was received.
Compositors other than kwin would then send an unconfigured buffer
error and close the connection.
This commit avoids the problem by not marking the WaylandBackend
ready for use until all the output surfaces constructed at startup
have received their initial configure event. (In practice, this
takes one additional roundtrip.)
At the moment, the session code is far from being extensible. If we
decide to add support for libseatd, it will be a challenging task with
the current design of session management code. The goal of this
refactoring is to fix that.
Another motivation behind this change is to prepare session related code
for upstreaming to kwayland-server where it belongs.
Once in a while, we receive complaints from other fellow KDE developers
about the file organization of kwin. This change addresses some of those
complaints by moving all of source code in a separate directory, src/,
thus making the project structure more traditional. Things such as tests
are kept in their own toplevel directories.
This change may wreak havoc on merge requests that add new files to kwin,
but if a patch modifies an already existing file, git should be smart
enough to figure out that the file has been relocated.
We may potentially split the src/ directory further to make navigating
the source code easier, but hopefully this is good enough already.
