The update tracking code was ugly and using deprecated drawing APIs. It
was also in the wrong place.
So instead of trying to keep it working, I'll remove it. We need to find
a better way to put it and make it work there.
Nobody ever does a NULL check there so all that causes is crashes. So
we better return a non-primary monitor than NULL.
Fixes gdk-wayland always returning NULL.
Some backends (namely Wayland) do not support global coordinates so
using the window position to determine the monitor will always fail on
such backends.
In such cases, the backend itself might be better suited to identify
the monitor a given window resides on.
Add a vfunc get_monitor_at_window() to the display class so that we can
use the backend to retrieve the monitor, if the backend implements it.

If the monitor vfuncs are not implemented in a display class,
fall back to providing a single monitor object representing
the entire screen. This is not meant to be 'good enough', it
is just to provide some implementation until all backends
implement the monitor vfuncs. When that is the case, the
fallback should be removed.
gdk_display_list_devices is deprecated and all the backends
implement the same fallback by delegating to the device manager
and caching the list (caching it is needed since the method does
not transfer ownership of the container).
The compat code can be shared among all backends and we can
initialize the list lazily only in the case someone calls the
deprecated method.

gdk_display_add_seat was prepending new seats to the list, which
was effectively making the added seat the new default. Since that
is probably not intended, append to the list.
There's places where we still need to deal with floating devices, which are
unseen by seats. Ignore deprecations and keep using GdkDeviceManager until
we can forget about floating devices.
The current way of exposing GDK API that should be considered internal
to GTK+ is to append a 'libgtk_only' suffix to the function name; this
is not really safe.
GLib has been using a slightly different approach: a private table of
function pointers, and a macro that allows accessing the desired symbol
inside that vtable.
We can copy the approach, and deprecate the 'libgtk_only' symbols in
lieu of outright removal.

To properly support multithreaded use we use a global GPrivate
to track the current context. Since we also don't need to track
the current context on the display we move gdk_display_destroy_gl_context
to GdkGLContext::discard.
Its not really reasonable to handle failures to make_current, it
basically only happens if you pass invalid arguments to it, and
thats not something we trap on similar things on the X drawing side.
If GL is not supported that should be handled by the context creation
failing, and anything going wrong after that is essentially a critical
(or an async X error).
This adds the new type GdkGLContext that wraps an OpenGL context for a
particular native window. It also adds support for the gdk paint
machinery to use OpenGL to draw everything. As soon as anyone creates
a GL context for a native window we create a "paint context" for that
GdkWindow and switch to using GL for painting it.
This commit contains only an implementation for X11 (using GLX).
The way painting works is that all client gl contexts draw into
offscreen buffers rather than directly to the back buffer, and the
way something gets onto the window is by using gdk_cairo_draw_from_gl()
to draw part of that buffer onto the draw cairo context.
As a fallback (if we're doing redirected drawing or some effect like a
cairo_push_group()) we read back the gl buffer into memory and composite
using cairo. This means that GL rendering works in all cases, including
rendering to a PDF. However, this is not particularly fast.
In the *typical* case, where we're drawing directly to the window in
the regular paint loop we hit the fast path. The fast path uses opengl
to draw the buffer to the window back buffer, either by blitting or
texturing. Then we track the region that was drawn, and when the draw
ends we paint the normal cairo surface to the window (using
texture-from-pixmap in the X11 case, or texture from cairo image
otherwise) in the regions where there is no gl painted.
There are some complexities wrt layering of gl and cairo areas though:
* We track via gdk_window_mark_paint_from_clip() whenever gtk is
painting over a region we previously rendered with opengl
(flushed_region). This area (needs_blend_region) is blended
rather than copied at the end of the frame.
* If we're drawing a gl texture with alpha we first copy the current
cairo_surface inside the target region to the back buffer before
we blend over it.
These two operations allow us full stacking of transparent gl and cairo
regions.
