Drop the public filtering API. The x11 backend already has
the ::xevent signal as replacement. The win32 backend needs
a similar signal to replace filtering.
Reshuffle header inclusions in the x11 backend a little bit
to avoid a cyclic inclusion between gdkprivate-x11.h and
gdkdisplay-x11.h that is otherwise causing problems.
GdkContentFormatsBuilder is currently not introspectable, as it does not
have a GType. We can turn it into a boxed type, but we need to implement
memory management for it.
The current gdk_content_formats_builder_free() function returns a newly
constructed value, so we cannot use it as a GBoxedFreeFunc; additionally
copying a GdkContentFormatsBuilder contents would make it a bit odd, as
you could get multiple identical GdkContentFormats out of the copies.
A simple approach is to model the GdkContentFormatsBuilder API to follow
the GBytes one: use reference counting for memory management, and have
a function to release a reference, return a GdkContentFormats, and reset
the GdkContentFormatsBuilder state.
For language bindings, we can provide a get_formats() function that
returns the GdkContentFormats instance and resets the builder instance,
leaving the reference count untouched.
For C convenience we can keep gdk_content_formats_builder_free(), and
make it a wrapper around gdk_content_formats_builder_get_formats(), with
the guarantee that it'll free the builder instance regardless of its
current reference count.

As far as possible, use per-display debug flags.
This will minimize the debug spew that we get from
the inspector if it is running on a separate display.
We now have a GdkX11Display::xevent signal that gets emitted for every
XEvent and allows you to interrupt processing via TRUE/FALSE return
values.
These return values to correspond to GDK_FILTER_REMOVE and
GDK_FILTER_CONTINUE respectively.
The GDK_FILTER_TRANSLATE case from gdk_window_add_filter() is now meant
to be handled via gdk_display_put_event().
This is in preparation for DND.
It moves a lot of code from gdkclipboard-x11.c to
gdkselectionoutputstream-x11.c to untangle it from GdkX11Clipboard
usage.
This is the replacement for selection usage.
Backend implementations for X11 (missing support for backwards compat
formats like COMPOUND_TEXT) and Wayland are included.
GTK code should be adapted to use gdk_drop_read_*() functions instead
of gtk_drag_get_data().
When the reply to a TARGETS request comes in, the clipboard may already
be reclaimed by the local app. Deal with that case (in an ugly way,
strictly speaking we should use a cancellable here).
This happens for example at startup when the initial TARGETS requests
have not been answered until after the main widow popped up. And if such
a window immediately claims the primary clipboard (like when the initial
focus is inside an entry), this race will happen.
This object tracks the SelectionNotifyEvent that has to be sent in
response to a SelectionRequest.
Currently it just looks like code reshuffling, but it's a prerequisite
for handling MULTIPLE, which requires to only send the notify after
every stream has writtten at least once.
But anyway, code is cleaner now, so it's a win!
(1) Try all passed in formats in order if one of them fails.
(2) Don't blindly accept all formats, make sure they are mime types
(3) Add a bunch of special non-mime types that plug converters to
get to mime types
This allows us not just to pass any mime type to the read function, but
it also makes it possible to pass multiple mime types and the clipboard
can then try them in order until it finds a supported one.
This is so far not implemented though.
(1) Turn X11 clipboard event handling into a regular filter function
(2) Maintain a timestamp in the clipboard, so we can pass it when
querying selections.
