If you set GDK_SCALE=2 in the environment then all windows will be
scaled by 2. Its not an ideal solution as it doesn't handle
multi-monitors at different scales, and only affects gtk apps.
But it is a good starting points and will help a lot on HiDPI
laptops.
Functions dealing with native Xlib types were (skip)ed because
gobject-introspection did not have correct Xlib types declarations.
They are corrected now, so these GdkX11 functions can be enabled back
again.

Remove the --sync option and remove the possibility of backend-specific
commandline options altogether. --sync is being replaced by
a GDK_SYNCHRONIZE environment variable.
Moving the direct-access redefinitions of various macros
to gdkprivate-x11.h and use that header throughout in x11/.
Also remove a workaround for a long-fixed X server bug.
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.
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.
This function may be used to know the hardware device that triggered
an event, it could resort to the master device in the few cases there's
not a direct hardware device to relate to the event (i.e.: crossing events
due to grabs)
Currently fprintf(stderr, ...) is used for X error and X IO errors
(unless compiled with debugging, in which case g_error() is used for
X errors.)
But if an application is redirecting log messages, we really want
X errors to appear in that same log, so it's better to use a g_logv()
variant.
Though g_warning() isn't really appropriate for "lost connection to the
server", G_LOG_LEVEL_INFO isn't part of the "prefixed log levels"
so will produce output without the application name and PID.

* don't lose track of previous X error handler
if nested traps are pushed
* free any remaining traps when display
is finalized
Test will fail unless bug 630032 is closed so
gdk_display_close() works.

* add per-display gdk_x11_display_error_trap_push()
(X11-specific because gdk_error_trap_push() probably
should have been)
* make gdk_error_trap_push() handle only GDK displays
not displays opened without a GDK wrapper
* make gdk_error_trap_pop() and gdk_x11_display_error_trap_pop()
automatically sync only if needed, so manual gdk_flush() is not
required
* add gdk_error_trap_pop_ignored() which just asynchronously
ignores errors, so never needs to sync
* add G_GNUC_WARN_UNUSED_RESULT to plain pop(), because
if you use plain pop() and don't need the return value,
the async gdk_error_trap_pop_ignored() should be used
instead. This results in lots of warnings to clean
up in a later patch.
The main objective here was to avoid the need to sync just
to ignore an error. Now, syncing is automatic, and only
happens when we need to know the error code.
