In the motion compression phase the coalesced events will be saved
as a GdkTimeCoord on the motion event that shall be delivered.
For simplicity (and because history doesn't make much sense otherwise)
event history is only recorded while there are buttons pressed, this
also tidily ensures that those coalesced events would have the same
target widget on the gtk side than the delivered one, because of
implicit grabs.
Two warts remain. gdk_event_copy() should be unnecessary as
events should be considered static after delivery, so g_object_ref()
should be just as good. There's a few exceptional cases that the event
is copied and then modifier for later processing, those cases should be
reconsidered individually.
And gdk_event_free() could be likewise turned into g_object_unref(),
many callers remain though.
We are not emitting these events anymore, so lets remove them
from the api. The GdkSettingAction enum is moved to xsettings-client.c
where its only use remains.
Those should be interpreted by widget-local gestures, not guessed at a
high level with no notions of the specific context. Users will want
GtkGestureMultiPress to replace these events.
These states will be consumed by GtkWindow in order to
have better edge management on tiling situations. Their
values are supplied by the compositor, and will be send
through and X11 Atom or a Wayland protocol extension.

As event->any.window is the toplevel, this is not useful anymore to
determine the window/widget that is the target for this event. Add
helper functions to attach user data to GdkEvents so the target
widget can be stored on the gtk/ side.
These calls should be made private with the rest of GdkEvent related
API.
GDK_PAD_BUTTON*,RING and STRIP will be emitted respectively when
pad buttons, rings or strips are interacted with. Each of those
pad components belong to a group (a pad can contain several of
those), which may be in a given mode. All this information is
contained in the event.
GDK_PAD_GROUP_MODE is emitted when a group in the pad switches
mode, which will generally result in a different set of actions
being triggered from the same buttons/rings/strips in the group.

Windows save in hardware_keycode an information which is not so low
level and some application require the hardware scancode.
As Windows provides this information save it in GdkEventPrivate
and provide a function to get this information.
For no Windows system the function return the hardware_keycode instead.

And use it to handle kinetic scrolling in the GtkScrolledWindow.
However, dropping the delta check causes the X11-based kinetic
scroll to break since we don't have the stop event here. Correct handling of
xf86-input-libinput-based scroll events is still being discussed.

Each gesture type has its separate GdkEvent struct, and begin/update/
end/cancel event types.
There is support for multi-finger swipe (3-4 fingers), and 2-finger
rotate/pinch gestures.
