GTK will not up front know how to correctly calculate a size, since it
will not be able to reliably predict the constraints that may exist
where it will be mapped.
Thus, to handle this, calculate the size of the toplevel by having GDK
emitting a signal called 'compute-size' that will contain information
needed for computing a toplevel window size.
This signal may be emitted at any time, e.g. during
gdk_toplevel_present(), or spontaneously if constraints change.
This also drops the max size from the toplevel layout, while moving the
min size from the toplevel layout struct to the struct passed via the
signal,
This needs changes to a test case where we make sure we process
GDK_CONFIGURE etc, which means we also needs to show the window and
process all pending events in the test-focus-chain test case.
Some widgets have different roles after they are constructed, so we need
to allow changing the role defined by the class. We should still avoid
setting a role after the GtkATContext has been created.
To build a better world sometimes means having to tear the old one down.

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

This is a selection model that stores the selection
state in a boolean property of the items, and thus
persists across reordering and similar changes.
Fixes: #2826
We are setting the month property to 10 different values,
checking that the change succeeds. But the calendar defaults
to the current date, so on every 30th of the month, we
try to set a date of Febuary 30, which fails.
Lets fix this before the 31st, by setting the calendar
to a good date.
The lightweight inheritance mechanism used for GtkShortcutTrigger is not
going to be usable by bindings, because boxed types cannot have derived
types.
We could use GTypeInstance and derive everything from that, like
GParamSpec, but in the end shortcuts are not really a performance
critical paths, unlike CSS values or render nodes.
We want to use a gdk_surface_new_popup for popups,
and align the constructor names with the surface
types, so rename
gdk_surface_new_popup -> gdk_surface_new_temp
gdk_surface_new_popup_full -> gdk_surface_new_popup
The temp surface type will disappear eventually.
GtkLayoutChild instances are created on demand once we have a widget, a
GtkLayoutManager, and a child widget. This makes testing their creation
fairly tricky.
Let's skip them, for the time being.
This patch does multiple things:
1. Add a custom persistent per-row object.
2. Move all per-row API to that object. This means notifications are now
possible.
3. Add a "passthrough" construct-only property to the TreeListModel that
influences if the model returns these new object or passes through
the ones from the model.
This greatly simplifies the code needed to be written for widgetry,
because one can just connect the per-row object to the expanders that
expand and collapse rows.
As an added power feature, these objects can also be passed through
further models (like filter models).
It also adds kind of a hack to Adwaita to make the test look neat.
The comment above explains neatly why subclassing GtkButton for
GtkColorButton was a bad idea. Nowadays it's a GtkWidget subclass
containing a GtkButton so let's remove the special case here.
The ultimate goal of this patch series is to split GdkDragContext into
GdkDrop + GdkDrag classes for the destination and source side of a dnd
operation.
The refactoring is meant to work something like this:
1. Introduce GdkDrop as a base class
2. Make all drop related code (like GdkEvent) use GdkDrop instead of
GdkDragContext. Move/duplicate APIs to allow that.
3. Port all drop contexts in the backends from GdkDragContext to GdkDrop
4. Delete all APIs in GdkDragContext that aren't needed anymore.
5. Make GdkDragContext no longer a GdkDrop subclass
6. Rename GdkDragContext to GdkDrag
