Text handles use to connect to the first GtkScrollable up the hierarchy
so they can be repositioned when scrolling. It makes more sense to look
up the first child of a GtkScrolledWindow, it must be an scrollable too,
and will be the scrollable that can actually change the position of the
text handles.

It is assumed that border.top is the same than pointing_to.height (which
equals the strong cursor position), which is not since some time ago.
The border calculation has been move on top too, it is now used in the
Y position one, and doesn't depend on anything we calculate later.
Text handles are subsurfaces on wayland, so sort of their own toplevel.
This made gtk_widget_translate_coordinates() to bail out there, resulting
in text handles being mispositioned and jumpy. To fix this, translate to
toplevel GtkWindow coordinates manually, and translate coordinates from
there.
Along the way, the coordinates reported in ::handle-dragged have been
fixed so there is no small jumps in either axis (most noticeable in the
X axis when you started dragging, and in the Y axis when moving between
lines of different heights.
This behavior has been made optional on add_popover() time, text handles
will keep being able to overflow the window, in order to allow text
selection on views too close to the window edge.
Regular GtkPopovers are reinstaurated to the previous size positioning
logic though, that is, limited by the visible area of the window.
This will be the widget that the popover relates to (::pointing-to in
GtkPopover, ::parent in GtkTextHandle).
Additional API to check the popover/parent relationship between widgets
has been added, which will be useful wherever this is necessary in a
generic manner.

When we are close the window edge, we need to shrink the 'invisible
border' around the handle to avoid mispositioning it. A fiddly
calculation, but it works.
Using the parent widget context is a leftover of the pre-popover
implementation, which used GdkWindows directly. This will make the context
reflect widget state, at the expense of changing the selector paths
that used to match the handles.
Conceptually, text handles are boxes, whose content is a 'handle',
so draw background, frame and handle. With this, and the previous
commit, the cursor-handle theming in Adwaita now works as intended.
The handle is still centered horizontally, but the extra vertical
space wasn't taken into account, leading to misplacing the dragging
point (and the handle) during motion events.
If the rect a handle points to starts falling outside of the parent
scrollable allocation, the handle will be automatically hidden, and
shown again when the rectangle is visible too.
Popovers are strange in the sense that they aren't attached to a
parent directly, they rely on the relative_to widget so the toplevel
is shared, and when they have a parent, it is the toplevel itself,
not relative_to. This also means that there are conditions where the
popover loses it's parent, so they must survive unparenting.
The previous code would be floating the last reference as soon as the
parent is gone, but it was non-obvious who'd own that reference. So
fix this situation by granting the ownership of popovers to their
relative_to widget, an extra reference may be held by the toplevel
when the popover has a parent, but the popover object will be
guaranteed to be alive as long as the parent lives.
This way, memory management of popovers is as hidden from the user
as regular widgets within containers are, users are free to call
gtk_widget_destroy() on a popover, but it'd eventually become
destructed when relative_to is.
This offers the same behavior, but GDK_WINDOW_TEMP windows aren't used
anymore, involving less translations from/to root coordinates, plus no
glitches in having handles snap to content as windows move.
Now, even if the handles being rendered are small, the handle touch
input shape will be as wide as the visible part of the rendered asset, and
high enough to cover both the handle and the height of the line where
the selection bound is.
Also, make handles have the same virtual distance to the line top/bottom
when a drag starts, so the handle doesn't jump to another line after a
too short threshold.
This was causing warnings on widget unparent like:
Gdk-CRITICAL **: gdk_window_has_native: assertion `GDK_IS_WINDOW (window)' failed
Becasue the window was not properly removed from the lists on unrealize.
When calling gtk_widget_draw() on the entry gtk_cairo_should_draw_window()
will return TRUE for all windows. This is used when rendering a widget to
somewhere other than the screen, and its now used for transparent widgets.
This caused the texthandle to always draw itself and terminate the draw
handler for the entry.
Instead we now only draw the markers when really visible, plus we return
FALSE to avoid stopping the entry drawing.

This replaces the previously hardcoded calls to gdk_window_set_user_data,
and also lets us track which windows are a part of a widget. Old code
should continue working as is, but new features that require the
windows may not work perfectly.
We need this for the transparent widget support to work, as we need
to specially mark the windows of child widgets.

Themes may want to render handles differently depending on whether
the widget is in selection mode (2 handles enclosing a selection) or
cursor mode (one handle pointing out the insertion cursor).
This improves both interaction and theming, as it allows
arbitrary handle shapes while just being draggable from
the visible areas.
This way themes can set up handles with the hotspot visually
displaced from the horizontal center, as long as the hotspot
lies centered in the image/svg asset.
The check on the handle to be drawn on the mask was based on the yet to
be set priv->windows pointers, pass explicitly the handle position to
have the shape correctly initialized on non-composited environments
Don't hook on the widget style context and set up instead
a widget path for itself. Also use a common style class
for both handles, with an extra top/bottom class for each
handle.
This is a helper object to allow text widgets to implement
text selection on touch devices. It allows for both cursor
placement and text selection, displaying draggable handles
on/around the cursor and selection bound positions.
Currently, this is private to GTK+, and only available to
GtkEntry and GtkTextView.
