Make GdkEvents hold a single GdkDevice. This device is closer to
the logical device conceptually, although it must be sufficient for
device checks (i.e. GdkInputSource), which makes it similar to the
physical devices.
Make the logical devices have a more accurate GdkInputSource where
needed, and conflate the event devices altogether.

ATK served us well for nearly 20 years, but the world has changed, and
GTK has changed with it. Now ATK is mostly a hindrance towards improving
the accessibility stack:
- it maps to a very specific implementation, AT-SPI, which is Linux and
Unix specific
- it requires implementing the same functionality in three different
layers of the stack: AT-SPI, ATK, and GTK
- only GTK uses it; every other Linux and Unix toolkit and application
talks to AT-SPI directly, including assistive technologies
Sadly, we cannot incrementally port GTK to a new accessibility stack;
since ATK insulates us entirely from the underlying implementation, we
cannot replace it piecemeal. Instead, we're going to remove everything
and then incrementally build on a clean slate:
- add an "accessible" interface, implemented by GTK objects directly,
which describe the accessible role and state changes for every UI
element
- add an "assistive technology context" to proxy a native accessibility
API, and assign it to every widget
- implement the AT context depending on the platform

If you run weston with the headless backend, you get a Wayland
display with no seat, which is just fine by the protocol.
gdk_display_get_default_seat() returns NULL in this case. Various
widgets assume that we always have a seat with a keyboard and a
pointer, since that is what X guarantees. Make things survive
without that, so we can run the testsuite under a headless
Wayland compositor.
Add back a property that determines whether an individual
widget will accept focus or not. :can-focus prevents the
focus from ever entering the entire widget hierarchy
below a widget, and :focusable just determines if grabbing
the focus to the widget itself will succeed.
See #2686
In the presence of attached children, the css tree and the
widget tree are not in sync, so we need to explicitly set
the parent of the css node before inserting the widget, or
else we end up with critical warnings and a non-working
menu.
This can be seen in testtextview.
When toggling caret visibility (with F7) we would hit an assertion if the
cursor is currently blinking. This adjusts things to ensure that we should
be showing the carent when scheduling our blink timeouts.
Fixes#2647
After the :can-focus change in the previous commit, widgets
need to set suitable focus and grab_focus implementations
to implement the desired focus behavior.
This commit does that for all widgets.
Reviewing the existing settings, the only backend with
some differences in the modifier intent settings is OS X,
and we would rather have that implemented by interpreting
the existing modifiers in the appropriate way.

primary ctrl ctrl ctrl mod2
mnemonic alt alt alt alt
context menu - - - ctrl
extend sel shift shift shift shift
modify sel ctrl ctrl ctrl mod2
no text alt|ctrl alt|ctrl alt|ctrl mod2|ctrl
shift group varies - - alt
GTK now uses the following modifiers:
primary ctrl
mnemonic alt
extend sel shift
modify sel ctrl
no text alt|ctrl
The context menu and shift group intents were not used
in GTK at all.
Update tests to no longer expect <Primary> to roundtrip
through the accelerator parsing and formatting code.
