Move the autocleanup declarations into their
respective headers.
While we are at it, correct the autocleanup
declaration for GdkEvent to use gdk_event_unref,
not g_object_unref. Oops
This will be handled between 'update' (which may trigger animation
ticks, CSS update, etc) and 'layout' which will allocate the widget
tree. It's meant to perform surface size computation, and is done
between these two phases in order to have an up to date state, and
letting the layout phase have an up to date size to layout in.
We use a compilation symbol in our build to allow the inclusion of
specific headers while building GTK, to avoid the need to include only
the global header.
Each namespace has its own compilation symbol because we used to have
different libraries, and strict symbol visibility between libraries;
now that we have a single library, and we can use private symbols across
namespaces while building GTK, we should have a single compilation
symbol, and simplify the build rules.
Remove all the old 2.x and 3.x version annotations.
GTK+ 4 is a new start, and from the perspective of a
GTK+ 4 developer all these APIs have been around since
the beginning.
Add an API to start or stop continually updating the frame clock.
This is a slight convenience for applcations and avoids the problem
of getting one more frame run after an animation stops, but the
primary motivation for this is because it looks like we might have
to use timeBeginPeriod()/timeEndPeriod() on Windows to get reasonably
accurate timing, and for that we'll need to know if there is an
animation running.

* remove gdk_frame_clock_get_frame_time_val(); a convenience
function that would rarely be used.
* remove gdk_frame_clock_get_requested() and
::frame-requested signal; while we might want to eventually
be able to track the requested phases for a clock, we don't
have a current use case.
* Make gdk_frame_clock_freeze/thaw() private: they are only
used within GTK+ and have complex semantics.
* Remove gdk_frame_clock_get_last_complete(). Another convenience
function that I don't have a current use case for.
* Rename:
gdk_frame_clock_get_start() => gdk_frame_clock_get_history_start()
gdk_frame_clocK_get_current_frame_timings() => gdk_frame_clock_get_timings()
Now that GdkFrameClock is a class, not interface, there's no real advantage
to splitting the frame history into an aggregate object, so directly
merge it into GdkFrameClock.
It's unlikely that anyone will want to have, say, a GtkWidget that
also acts as a GdkFrameClock, so an abstract base class is as
flexible as making GdkFrameClock an interface, but has advantages:
- If we decide to never make implementing your own frame clock
possible, we can remove the virtualization.
- We can put functionality like history into the base class.
- Avoids the oddity of a interface without a public interface
VTable, which may cause problems for language bindings.
Add a very simple GtkWidget function for an "tick" callback, which
is connected to the ::update signal of GdkFrameClock.
Remove:
- GtkTimeline. The consensus is that it is too complex.
- GdkPaintClockTarget. In the rare cases where tick callbacks
aren't sufficient, it's possible to track the
paint clock with ::realize/::unrealize/::hierarchy-changed.
GtkTimeline is kept using ::update directly to allow using a GtkTimeline
with a paint clock but no widget.
For an operation like synchronizing audio to video playback, we need to
be able to predict the time that a frame will be presented. The details
of this depend on the windowing system, so make the backend predict
a presentation time for ::begin-frame and set it on the GdkFrameTimings.
The timing algorithm of GdkFrameClockIdle is adjusted to give predictable
presentation times for frames that are not throttled by the windowing
system.
Helper functions:
gdk_frame_clock_get_current_frame_timings()
gdk_frame_clock_get_refresh_info()
are added for operations that would otherwise be needed multiple times
in different locations.

In order to be able to track statistics about how well we are drawing,
and in order to be able to do sophisticated things with frame timing
like predicting per-frame latencies and synchronizing audio with video,
we need to be able to track exactly when previous frames were drawn
to the screen.
Information about each frame is stored in a new GdkFrameTimings object.
A new GdkFrameHistory object is added which keeps a queue of recent
GdkFrameTimings (this is added to avoid further complicating the
implementation of GdkFrameClock.)
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=685460
Keeping events paused after the end of a frame put us in a
weird state where we had to process and queue events - so that
we would get the message from the compositor - but not deliver
them. Instead resume events before ending the frame.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=685460
When we have pending motion events, instead of delivering them
directly, request the new FLUSH_EVENTS phase of the frame clock.
This allows us to compress repeated motion events sent to the
same window.
In the FLUSH_EVENTS phase, which occur at priority GDK_PRIORITY_EVENTS + 1,
we deliver any pending motion events then turn off event delivery
until the end of the next frame. Turning off event delivery means
that we'll reliably paint the compressed motion events even if more
have arrived.
Add a motion-compression test case which demonstrates behavior when
an application takes too long handle motion events. It is unusable
without this patch but behaves fine with the patch.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=685460
Switch GtkStyleContext to using GdkFrameClock. To do this, add a new
UPDATE phase to GdkFrameClock.
Add a GdkFrameClockTarget interface with a single set_clock() method,
and use this to deal with the fact that GtkWidget only has a frame
clock when realized.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=685460
Add the ability to freeze a frame clock, which pauses its operation,
then thaw it again later to resume.
Initially this is used to implement freezing updates when we are
waiting for ConfigureNotify in response to changing the size of
a toplevel.
We need a per-window clock for this to work properly, so add that
for the X11 backend.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=685460
Instead of having gdk_frame_clock_request_frame() have
gdk_frame_clock_request_phase() where we can say what phase we need.
This allows us to know if we get a frame-request during layout whether
it's just a request for drawing from the layout, or whether another
layout phase is needed.
