We've long had double precision mouse coordinates on wayland (e.g.
when rotating a window) but with the new scaling we even have it on
X (and, its also in Xinput2), so convert all the internal mouse/device
position getters to use doubles and add new accessors for the
public APIs that take doubles instead of ints.
gdk_device_list_slave_devices only makes sense to call on master
devices, yet its g_return_if_fail check made it reject such devices.
Pointed out by monty.
_gdk_device_get_axis_use() dates back to pre-sealing, when the
xi2 work began, this remaining can be gone with a public
gdk_device_get_axis_use() function already in place.
GDK_NATIVE_WINDOWS was a way to keep some old apps running that did weird
things in gtk2. We should not have to carry this forwards in gtk 3.x.
We do however keep a g_warning() call reminding people of this fact to
ease debugging when they try to port their applications.

Only master devices must modify the associated device to separate
a pointer/keyboard pair, slave devices must only call
_gdk_device_remove_slave().
Fixes bug 639767 - password not accepted in gnome-screensaver dialog,
reported by Frederic Crozat. On VT-switch, the X server removes its
grab on HW devices, the effect on clients is that slave devices
disappear, and these were mistakenly mangling the master device
hierarchy. so gdk_device_get_associated_device() on the client
pointer wouldn't return the paired keyboard anymore.
The final effect is that gtkplug-x11 wasn't setting a keyboard to
its generated events.
Use the grab and ungrab vfuncs from the frontend instead of the
_gdk_windowing wrappers, and move some things around accordingly.
Again, only the X11 backend has been updated, other backends
need to be updated to match.
The old functions to get core pointer and devices list are gone as
well. This slice is entirely replaced internally by multidevice
handling and may just go.
The xi2 device manager now handles slaves being detached and/or
attached to a master.
gdk_device_list_slaves() has been added so it is possible to
know how slaves relate with masters. The other backends (X11 and not)
don't neeed to to anything special here since their hierarchy is
fully flat.
When the slave device changes, the master takes the shape of the
new one, modifying its axes, this signal is more useful to catch
this situation than the n-axes property
