At this point, it's safe to assume that only X11 has weird rendering
model, which stands in the way of making rendering abstractions nice and
intuitive, so let's check operation mode. If OperationModeX11 is
dropped, this will also simplify finding X11-specific code in kwin.
The ifdefs for have_gbm obfuscate the code unnecessarily - the drm backend
is not a great experience with qpainter, so in practice noone should ship
it without gbm anyways.
The Compositor contains nothing that can potentially get dirty and need
repainting.
As is, the advantages of this move aren't really noticeable, but it
makes sense with multiple scenes.
Backend parts are far from ideal, they can be improved later on as we
progress with the scene redesign.
This improves file organization in kwin by putting backends in a single
directory.
It also makes easier to discover kwin's low level components for new
contributors because the plugins directory may come as the last place to
look for. When one hears "plugin", the first thing that comes to mind is
regular plugins, not low level backends.
