The warning may have had some value at some point, but if
people uninstall large icons just to make the warning go
away, it does more harm than good. So just remove it.
Traditionally, the way painting was done in GTK+ was with the
"expose-event" handler, where you'd use GDK methods to do drawing on
your surface. In GTK+ 2.24, we added cairo support with gdk_cairo_create,
so you could paint your graphics with cairo.
Since then, we've added client-side windows, double buffering, the paint
clock, and various other enhancements, and the modern way to do drawing
is to connect to the "draw" signal on GtkWidget, which hands you a
cairo_t. To do double-buffering, the cairo_t we hand you is actually on
a secret surface, not the actual backing store of the window, and when
the draw handler completes we blit it into the main backing store
atomically.
The code to do this is with the APIs gdk_window_begin_paint_region,
which creates the temporary surface, and gdk_window_end_paint which
blits it back into the backing store. GTK+'s implementation of the
"draw" signal uses these APIs.
We've always sort-of supported people calling gdk_cairo_create
"outside" of a begin_paint / end_paint like old times, but then you're
not getting the benefit of double-buffering, and it's harder for GDK to
optimize.
Additionally, newer backends like Mir and Wayland can't actually support
this model, since they're based on double-buffering and swapping buffers
at various points in time. If we hand you a random cairo_t, we have no
idea when is a good time to swap.
Remove support for this.
This is technically a GDK API break: a warning is added in cases where
gdk_cairo_create is called outside of a paint cycle, and the returned
surface is a dummy that won't ever be composited back onto the main
surface. Testing with complex applications like Ardour didn't produce
any warnings.
This avoids a bunch of policy problems with deciding how to lay
out the window menu under different WMs.
For now, we use the special event _GTK_SHOW_WINDOW_MENU, but we
hope to have this standardized in wm-spec quite soon, as KDE wants
it as well.
It seems that some backends implemented get_root_origin wrong
and returned the client window coordinates, not the frame window
coordinates. Since it's possible to implement generically for all
windows, let's do that instead of having a separate impl vfunc.
And the counterpart to unmaximize when dragging a maximized window, if
touch devices aren't going to use EWMH moveresize, having this one at least
makes things feel a bit less awkward.

Sadly, EWMH moveresize mechanism can't work with touch devices for two
reasons:
1) As a mutter implementation detail, the device is queried in order
to check whether the dragging button is still pressed. Touch devices
won't report the button 1 being pressed through pointer emulation.
2) Even bypassing that check, on X11 touch events are selected prior
to sequences being started, either through XISelectEvents or
XIGrabTouchBegin, no late registering through active grabs is allowed,
as WMs do on reaction to EWMH moveresize messages.
So for the time being, make touch devices fallback on emulated window
dragging, which at least allows for moving windows.

Instead of destroying the surface in the backend if this is
unable to resize, let the core code do it, and do it properly.
Based on a patch by Benjamin Otte.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=725172
The EWMH defines _NET_WM_MOVERESIZE_SIZE_KEYBOARD and
_NET_WM_MOVERESIZE_MOVE_KEYBOARD for operations that are not
initiated by a button-press event. Allow using these by passing
a button of 0 to gdk_window_begin_move/resize_drag.
And deprecate the X11-specific version of it.
We call this new API _set_shadow_width() and not _set_frame_extents()
because we already have a gdk_window_get_frame_extents() with a
different meaning and different type of value.

Plug windows weren't redrawing properly because the embedded
window was expecting to get messages for each frame from the
compositor, but the compositor doesn't know about embedded
windows. Simply disable frame sync for GtkPlug's GdkWindow -
extending XEMBED to handle frame sync isn't interesting
at this point.
A new API gdk_x11_window_set_frame_sync_enabled() is added
to allow this to be done.

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.
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.
The macros we had for checking for toplevel windows were passing
through the root window, which was not intentional and meant that
for the root window WINDOW_IS_TOPLEVEL() returned TRUE but
window->impl->toplevel was NULL, causing gdk_window_create_cairo_surface()
to crash.
* remove gdk_frame_clock_get_frame_time_val(); a convenience
function that would rarely be used.
* remove gdk_frame_clock_get_requested() and
::frame-requested signal; while we might want to eventually
be able to track the requested phases for a clock, we don't
have a current use case.
* Make gdk_frame_clock_freeze/thaw() private: they are only
used within GTK+ and have complex semantics.
* Remove gdk_frame_clock_get_last_complete(). Another convenience
function that I don't have a current use case for.
* Rename:
gdk_frame_clock_get_start() => gdk_frame_clock_get_history_start()
gdk_frame_clocK_get_current_frame_timings() => gdk_frame_clock_get_timings()
