It's not necessary anymore because gdk_display_manager_get() always
succeeds and the value is independant of when it was called as it's no
longer backend specific.
This makes Wayland and X11 no longer call into XKB and libX11 for these
functions but use GDK's own copy of these functions, just like the
win32, quartz and broadway backends.
This is another step towards making GdkDisplayManager backend-agnostic.
Most of the backends profit from this as their atom implementations
where generic anyway - x11 needed that to allow multiple X displays and
broadway, quartz and wayland don't have the concept of displays.
The X11 backend still did things, so I only #if 0'd some code but did
not actually update anything.
For introspection scanning which ends up calling class_init() which in
turn calls into the keybindings code, we can just use the fallback
keyval conversion code.

Add GInitable interface with a default implementation that always
succeeds. This allows backends to override the GInitable implementation
and add their own checks to determine if the backend can be loaded. If
a backend cannot be loaded, GDK can attempt to load the next available
backend.
Since backends may need to read any relevant options (such as the
display flag) to determine if they can be created successfully, this
patch also removes calls that attempt to create the display manager
before the options have been parsed.

In 2.x, the !HAVE_XCONVERTCASE fallback of keyval_convert_case() was
implicitly used as implementation for all !X11 backends.
In 3.x, when this function was virtualized in GdkDisplayManager,
this fallback was moved to the X11 backend and the other backends
"equipped" with /* FIXME implement */ implementations of
keyval_convert_case() which don't convert anything.
Move the fallback code back to gdk/ as default implementation
of GdkDisplayManager::keyval_convert_case() and remove its
implementations is all backends but X11. Also remove the
implementation in Wayland which was a plain copy of what
is now the default implementation.
(cherry picked from commit f46c1b76d8)
On Windows and OS X we want to prefer the native backends over the X11
backend.
On Linux, nothing changes as nobody is going to enable those backends
(and if they do, they'll know what they get).
There are sure regressions but basic stuff seems to be working
again after all the API breakage done with comments like
"Win32 and Quartz need to be ported still."
This commit hides the GdkDisplayManager instance and class structs,
adds vfuncs for listing displays, opening displays, and getting and
setting the default display. The X11 backend has a derived
GdkDisplayManagerX11.
The gdk_display_manager_get() function is responsible for deciding on
which of the compiled in backends to use. Currently, it consults the
GDK_BACKEND environment variable and falls back to x11.
