GTK4 doesn't have WS_CHILD windows anymore, so hWndParent argument
to CreateWindowEx() is always interpreted as the owner window,
not the parent window.
A window with an owner:
* is above the owner in Z-order
* is destroyed when the owner is destroyed
* is hidden when the owner is minimized
This is enforced by the OS.
GTK can only allow this for popup windows.
Desktop window must never[0] be an owner.

Popups can't be active or inactive, so emitting GDK events
in response to WM_ACTIVATE makes no sense for these kinds
of GDK surfaces.
The jury is still out on whether we should block (return 0)
or ignore (don't return anything) this message.
Blocking WM_NCACTIVATE (which we currently ignore) is definitely
not an option - it completely breaks input somehow.
1) Handle GDK_SURFACE_POPUP in RegisterGdkClass()
(for now pretend it's the same as GDK_SURFACE_TOPLEVEL)
2) Remove useless code from GDK_SURFACE_TOPLEVEL case in _gdk_win32_display_create_surface()
(now there's just GDK_SURFACE_TOPLEVEL there, no need for a type check)
3) Have a separate case for GDK_SURFACE_POPUP and ensure that
it doesn't get WS_CHILDWINDOW (and neither should GDK_SURFACE_TEMP).
Somewhat change the order of initialization (to be closer
to what Wayland backend does).
Also remove the wrapper field that is no longer needed -
it used to hold a pointer to the main GdkWindow instance,
which wrapped GdkWin32ImplWindow. Since impls are gone,
nothing is wrapping anything anymore.
Fix a substitution error, where wrong pointer was added
to the hash table. Added a comment to ensure that future readers
(including myself) won't be confused by the fact that we're
inserting a pointer instead of the handle itself.
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.
All the information in it is already contained
in the surface object we pass along, and none
of the backend implementations were using the
attributes at all.
We are not creating such surfaces anymore, and
they were only ever meaningfully implemented
on X11. Drop the concept, and the api for determining
if a surface is input-only.
The skip-taskbar, skip-pager and urgency hints were
only ever implemented for X11, and are not very useful
with modern desktops. Relegate the functionality to
x11 backend api, and drop the GtkWindow api.
We preiously did not apply the resizes and moves as they were previously
only done in the Cairo drawing context on Win32. Fix this by applying
this too in the GL drawing context.
Make gdk_win32_surface_get_queued_window_rect() and
gdk_win32_surface_apply_queued_move_resize() not static functions, as we
want to use them in gdkglcontext-win32.c, to fix resizing and moving.
As in commit d45996c, the x and y coordinates passed into begin_drag and
begin_move are no longer root coordinates but are now surface
coordinates.
Use the x and y surface coordinates to acquire the root x and y
coordinates so that resizing and moving can work as expected.
ImmIsIME() doesn't work (always returns TRUE) since Vista.
Use ITfActiveLanguageProfileNotifySink to detect TSF changes,
which are equal to IME changes for us.
Also make sure that IMMultiContext re-loads the IM when keyboard layout
changes, otherwise there's a subtle bug that could happen:
* Run GTK application with non-IME layout (US, for example)
* Focus on an editable widget (GtkEntry, for example)
* IM Context is initialized to use the simple IM
* Switch to an IME layout (such as Korean)
* Start typing
* Since IME module is not loaded yet, keypresses are handled
by a default MS IME handler
* Once IME commits a character, GDK will get a WM_KEYDOWN,
which will trigger a GdkKeyEvent, which will be handled by
an event filter in IM Context, which will finally re-evaluate
its status and load IME, and only after that GTK will get
to handle IME by itself - but by that point input would
already be broken.
To avoid this we can emit a dummy event (with Void keyval),
which will cause IM Context to load the appropriate module
immediately.
This makes apps use "Segoe UI 9" by default instead of whatever matches "Sans 10".
It also cleans up the code and uses some new pango API while at it.
This was previously disabled in 9e686d1fb5 because it led to a poor glyph coverage
on certain versions of Windows which don't default to "Segoe UI 9" (Chinese, Korean, ..)
because the font fallback list was missing in pango.
This is about to get fixed in https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/pango/merge_requests/34
so enable it again when we detect a new enough pango version.
(See !436 for the original MR)
GTK widgets expect the scroll deltas to be 1 or -1 and calculate a scroll value from that.
Multiplying the delta by the Windows scroll line setting (which defaults to 3) results
in a much larger delta and vastly different behaviour for running a GTK app on Windows
vs on Linux. For example text view and tree view scroll by 9 lines per scroll wheel tick
per default this way while on Linux it is around 3.
Remove the multiplication for now.
See !426 for the gtk3 MR
Enables hinting, antialiasing and set the subpixel orientation according to the
active clear type setting. This ensures that font rendering with the fontconfig backend
looks similar to the win32 backend, at least with the default system font.
See !437
Do not lie to W32 about the formats that we provide or accept.
Originally the logic behind such lies was that GdkPixbuf allows us to
convert any supported image to BMP or PNG, and therefore we should
announce that we always provide/accept BMP and PNG along with other
formats.
But that's not how it works. GDK has built-in serializers and
deserializers for all pixbuf formats (where it just invokes GdkPixbuf
API) and will use them automatically to read or write GdkTexture
objects (internally wrapping GdkPixbuf objects where necessary). The
encoding and decoding of images is handled
by GdkContent(De)Serializers, backend has nothing to do with it.
Therefore W32 GDK backend should only offer formats that it can
actually do conversion for by itself (such as image/bmp <-> CF_DIB,
or text/uri-list <-> CFSTR_SHELLIDLIST).
This leverages the normal input context switching mechanism in GTK
by making it think that the gtk-im-module setting changed.
The backend returns gtk-im-module value as "ime" if W32
IME API says that an IME is in use. Otherwise it returns
and empty string - this still triggers an input context
switching code, which, not being able to create the desired context
(which is and empty string), falls back to looking at current
keyboard layout (currently that code is still a FIXME).
Paired with the code that signals gtk-im-module change on keyboard layout
switches, this is sufficient to make GTK capable of switching to
the appropriate IM context at runtime. At least, the kinds of context
that specify languages for which they are used automatically by default
(once locale matching is implemented), and the IME context.
Loading other kinds of IM context might still work via specifying
the gtk-im-module setting in gtk ini file, but doing so will likely
make GTK incapable of using the IME context that is used
for Korean, Chinese and Japanese (and some other languages).
Until someone figures out a way to actually change gtk-im-module
setting on Windows at runtime with meaningful values, the behaviour
introduced by this commit seems like a sufficient workaround.
Commit 359df028be changed the
code to send GDK_SCROLL_SMOOTH with deltas instead of
GDK_SCROLL_(UP|DOWN|LEFT|RIGHT).
Windows defines deltas inversed for vertical direction
(positive values mean the wheel was turned forward)
but not for horizontal direction
(positive values mean the wheel was turned towards the right).
This commit fixes behavior as both axes were inverted previously.
Commit d64467b334 changed the
code to send GDK_SCROLL_SMOOTH with deltas instead of
GDK_SCROLL_(UP|DOWN|LEFT|RIGHT). Change it again, to send
both the GDK_SCROLL_SMOOTH and the GDK_SCROLL_(UP|DOWN|LEFT|RIGHT)
event separately (with the discrete event marked as emulated),
as this is what other backends (such as wayland) do.
Set delta_x or delta_y for GdkScrollEvent.
HIWORD (wParam) in WM_MOUSE(H)WHEEL is the scroll delta.
A delta value of WHEEL_DELTA (which is 120) means scrolling
one full unit of something (for example, a line).
The delta should also be multiplied by the value that the
SystemParametersInfo (SPI_GETWHEELSCROLL(LINES|CHARS), 0, &value, 0)
call gives back, unless it gives back 0xffffffff, in which case
it indicates that scrolling is page- or screen-based, not line-based
(GDK doesn't support that at the moment).
Also, all deltas should be inverted, since MS sends negative deltas
when scrolling down (rotating the wheel back, in the direction of
the user).
With deltas set the mode should be set to GDK_SCROLL_SMOOTH.
Fixes issue 1263.
Change GdkDrag::action to GdkDrag::selected-action, which is
more clearly different from actions, and follows the existing
name of the struct field and getter.
This lets us drop the ::action-changed signal for the
property change notification. But, can just as well move
the signal class handers which just update the cursor
to the ::action setter. No need to do this in the backends.
* There's no GdkDragContext->dest_surface anymore.
Add dest_window field to GdkWin32DragContext,
and use that instead.
* Remove unused function prototypes
* Add more comments
* Rename variables and fields from 'window' to 'surface'
where appropriate
* Fix header indentation a bit
* Try to ensure that uninitialized/unknown handle variables
and fields are set to INVALID_HANDLE_VALUE instead of NULL,
as there may be cases where NULL is a valid handle value.
In particular, this patch removes:
gdk_surface_get_events()
gdk_surface_set_events()
gdk_surface_get_device_events()
gdk_surface_set_device_events()
Event masks so far still exist for grabs.
* Remove clipdrop->dnd_target_state, it's not used anymore
* Remove non-functioning _gdk_dropfiles_store(), store dropfiles
list in GdkWin32Drop instead
* Fix multiple comment typos
* Fix _gdk_win32_get_clipboard_format_name_as_interned_mimetype() to
leave names that look like mime/types alone
* Refactor _gdk_win32_add_w32format_to_pairs() to populate
GdkContentFormatsBuilder directly, instead of making a GList
* Rename context -> drag (still using GdkDragContext type,
but [almost?] all variables and comments say "drag" now)
* Rename GdkDropContext -> GdkDrop
* Rename some parameter names for clarity
* Rewrite local protocol to look more like OLE2 protocol
instead of mirroring the structure of the X11 API.
* Add handle_events field to GdkWin32DragContext,
to shut off event handling (temporary fix until GTK is patched up)
* Remove _gdk_win32_drag_context_find() - the drag object is stored
in GdkDrop instead. Use _gdk_win32_find_drag_for_dest_surface()
to get it initially.
* Remove target_ctx_for_window, droptarget context is stored
in the surface instead.
* Call gdk_drag_context_set_cursor() just like wayland backend does
(slightly broken for now)
* Clean up the action choosing code (filter source actions by using
keyboard state, pass that to GTK, get all actions supported by GTK in
response, match them up with filtered source actions, return the
result, falling back to COPY in case of multiple actions)
* Check drag_win32->protocol instead of the use_ole2_dnd variable where
possible
* Remove protocol checks from functions that are only used by the local
protocol
* Use event state to manufacture the keyboard state for WM_MOUSEMOVE
* Change function names printed by GDK_NOTE to name the actual
functions, not their theoretical generic GDK stack ancestors
* Consistently use drag_win32 and drop_win32 variables instead of a mix
of that and win32_drag/win32_drop
* Return FALSE from button handler to ensure that GTK gets the button
event to break implicit grab
* Emit leave event on failed idroptarget_drop() calls
There is no reason why we shouldn't pass this flag every time
Z-order changes. We have separate routines that are used to
maintain relative Z-order, so it should be completely OK to
pass SWP_NOOWNERZORDER to let the OS know that it shouldn't try
to maintain relative Z-order of the windows when raising them.
Pass SWP_NOOWNERZORDER when rising TEMP surfaces to the top. This ensures that
they don't drag anything else to the top with them. The use-case for this is
a tooltip appearing for a non-foreground surface, causing said surface to rise
above other surfaces, some of which maybe foreground at the moment.

According to the old new thing[0], we should use the instance handle
of the GDK/GTK DLL when registering GDK-specific types in the system.
Using the instance handle for the whole application in these circumstances
is not an error, but can potentially clash with the types registered
by the application itself.
Also, extract window class icons from the GDK/GTK DLL, not from the
application executable.

It's quite old, but mostly harmless (both "message == WM_KEYUP"
and "message = WM_KEYUP" evaluate to not-FALSE, and message
value is not used after that line).
* Remove DC refcounting (we trust GDK to always do
begin_frame/end_frame calls in pairs)
* Now that there's no GDK-provided double-buffer up the stack,
double-buffering is implemented here
(though it's disabled by default - in my tests it didn't provide
any visual improvements, but did decrease performance).
* For some reason delaying window resizes until the point where
we need to blit the double-buffer into the window leads
to visual glitches, so doulbe-buffered windows are resized
in begin_frame, same as non-double-buffered ones.
* New code to clear the paint region, for all drawing modes.
Hopefully, it isn't duplicated anywhere up the stack.
* GL has its own context now, so remove any GL-related comments.
* Layered windows are still used (because cairo actually works
better with them)
* A bit more code re-use for layered windows
* Some functions that were local to gdksurface-win32.c are made
usable for the whole backend
* Drag-indicator drawing is temporarily commented out to match
a similar change in X11 backend
We used to pass 2 regions to GdkDrawCotnext.end_frame() but code was
confusing what they meant. So we now don't do that anymore and only pass
the region that matters: The frame region.
And make the GdkCairoContext as abstract.
The idea of this and thje following commits is to get rid of all
Cairo code in gdksurface.c (and $backend/gdksurface-$backend.c)
by moving that code into the Cairo context files.
In particular, the GdkSurfaceClass.begin_frame/end_frame()
functions (which are currently exclusively used by the Cairo code
should end up being moved to GdkDrawContextClass.begin/end_frame().
This has multiple benefits:
1. It unifies code between the different drawing contexts.
GL lives in GLContext, Vulkan in VulkanContext and Cairo in
CairoContext. In turn, this makes it way easier to reason about
what's going on in surface-specific code. Currently pretty much
all backends do things wrong when they want to sync to drawing
or to the frame clock.
2. It makes the API of GdkSurface smaller. No drawing code (apart
from creating the contexts) needs to remain.
3. It confines Cairo to the Drawcontext, thereby making it way
more obvious when backends are still using it in situations
where it may now conflict with OpenGL (like when doing the dnd
failed animation or in the APIs that I'm removing in this
branch).
4. We have 2 very different types of Cairo contexts: The X/win32
model, where we have a natively supported Cairo backend but do
double buffering ourselves and use similar surfaces and the
Wayland/Broadway model where we use image surfaces without any
Cairo backend support and have to submit the buffers manually.
By not sharing code between those 2 versions, we can make the
actual code way smaller. We also get around the need to create
1x1 image surfaces in the Wayland backend where we pretend
there's a native Cairo surface.
* Previous commit had misleading info. The code was
added to begin_paint() instead of end_paint(). Though
that did not affect its performance in any visible way.
* Company advised to move the code to an "after_paint" signal
handler, so that it works on all renderers, not just Cairo.
This change caused high fluctuation in FPS values in fishbowl
when it is put in a situation where it cannot achieve 60fps
(such as using Cairo renderer at ultra-high resolution).
This seems to be deliberate and not a bug.
There is no easily apparent way of being notified when frame updates
happene exactly, so we just query frame info at the end of each paint.
If we query too often (faster than DWM refresh rate), we just get
the same values twice in a row, but that is, hopefully, highly unlikely.
This commit ensures that each GdkSurface impl remembers the
cursor that GDK sets for it, and that this cursor is set
each time WM_SETCURSOR is called for that sufrace's HWND.
This is needed because W32, unlike X, has no per-window cursors -
the cursor on W32 is a global resource, and we need to keep track
of which cursor should be set when pointer is over which surface
ourselves (WM_SETCURSOR exists exactly for this reason).
This commit also makes GDK remember the surface that has an implicit
grab (since implicit grabs are gone from the upper levels of the toolkit),
and ensures that crossing events are correctly synthesized and the grab
is broken when surface focus changes. This fixes a bug where opening
a new window (by clicking something in some other, pre-existing window)
will make that new window not get any mouse input due to the fact
that the mouse-button-down event from that click caused an implicit
grab on the pre-existing window, and that grab was not released afterward.
Instead of now-unused GdkWin32Cursor class (a subclass of GdkCursor),
add a stand-alone GdkWin32HCursor class that is a wrapper around
HCURSOR handle.
On creation it's given a display instance, a HCURSOR handle and a boolean
that indicates whether the HCURSOR handle can or cannot be destroyed
(this depends on how the handle was obtained).
That information is stored in a hash table inside the GdkWin32Display
singleton, each entry of that table has reference count.
When the GdkWin32HCursor object is finalized, it reduces the reference
count on the table entry in the GdkWin32Display. When it's created,
it either adds such an entry or refs an existing one.
This way two pieces of code (or the same piece of code called
multiple times) that independently obtain the same HCURSOR from the OS
will get to different GdkWin32HCursor instances, but GdkWin32Display
will know that both use the same handle.
Once the reference count reaches 0 on the table entry, it is freed
and the handle (if destroyable) is put on the destruction list,
and an idle destruction function is queued.
If the same handle is once again registered for use before the
idle destructior is invoked (this happens, for example, when
an old cursor is destroyed and then replaced with a new one),
the handle gets removed from the destruction list.
The destructor just calls DestroyCursor() on each handle, calling
SetCursor(NULL) before doing that when the handle is in use.
This ensures that SetCursor(NULL) (which will cause cursor to disappear,
which is bad by itself, and which will also cause flickering if the
cursor is set to a non-NULL again shortly afterward)
is almost never called, unless GTK messes up and keeps using a cursor
beyond its lifetime.
This scheme also ensures that non-destructable cursors are not destroyed.
It's also possible to call _gdk_win32_display_hcursor_ref()
and _gdk_win32_display_hcursor_unref() manually instead of creating
GdkWin32HCursor objects, but that is not recommended.
Add a new W32 backend-specific message filtering mechanism.
Works roughly the same way old event filtering did, but without
events (events are GDK/X11 concept that never really made sense
on W32), so there's no functionality for 'altering' events being
emitted. If an event needs to be emitted in response to a message
do it yourself.
Implemented like this, it should give better performance than
if we were to use GLib signals for this, since W32 sends a LOT
of messages (unlike X11, which doesn't send events as often)
all the time, and invoking the signal machinery on *each* message
would probably be bad.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=773299
Rename GdkWin32Selection to GdkWin32Clipdrop, since GdkSelection
is mostly gone, and the word "selection" does not reflect the
functionality of this object too well.
Clipboard is now handled by a separate thread, most of the code for
it now lives in gdkclipdrop-win32.c, gdkclipboard-win32.c just uses
clipdrop as a backend.
The DnD source part is also put into a thread.
The DnD target part does not spin the main loop, it just
emits a GDK event and returns a default value if it doesn't get a reply
by the time the event is processed.
Both clipboard and DnD use a new GOutputStream subclass to get data
from GTK and put it into a HGLOBAL.
GdkWin32DragContext is split into GdkWin32DragContext and GdkWin32DropContext,
anticipating a similar change that slated to happen to GdkDragContext.
OLE2 DnD protocol is now used by default, set GDK_WIN32_OLE2_DND envvar to 0
to make GDK use the old LOCAL and DROPFILES protocols.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=773299
Set the display for each event that we put.
Also reorganize the dnd_event_put() function a bit, giving it a surface
directly instead of setting it by implication.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=773299
dest_surface is going to always be NULL for source contexts.
Previously we used to put the root window there to pass this check,
but root windows are gone (and root surfaces never existed to begin
with), so we have to adapt.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=773299
This affects gdk_device_query_state() for the virtual device. It has
no window, and is forced to query the display itself, and display
defaults its scale to 1 even for HiDPI desktops. Use the same
"query scale of a NULL monitor" trick that we use in other places
to get the global desktop scale.

Remove all the old 2.x and 3.x version annotations.
GTK+ 4 is a new start, and from the perspective of a
GTK+ 4 developer all these APIs have been around since
the beginning.
The GDK_POINTER_MOTION_HINT_MASK enumeration value is gone, but we're
still keeping around the "is_hint" field in GdkEventMotion, even though
every backend sets it to `false` — except for the core X11 device
manager.
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.

GDK has a lock to mark critical sections inside the backends.
Additionally, code that would re-enter into the GTK main loop was
supposed to hold the lock.
Back in the Good Old Days™ this was guaranteed to kind of work only on
the X11 backend, and would cause a neat explosion on any other GDK
backend.
During GTK+ 3.x we deprecated the API to enter and leave the critical
sections, and now we can remove all the internal uses of the lock, since
external API that uses GTK+ 4.x won't be able to hold the GDK lock.

The main GDK thread lock is not portable and deprecated.
The only reason why gdk_threads_add_timeout() and
gdk_threads_add_timeout_full() exist is to allow invoking a callback
with the GDK lock held, in case 3rd party libraries still use the
deprecated gdk_threads_enter()/gdk_threads_leave() API.
Since we're removing the GDK lock, and we're releasing a new major API,
such code cannot exist any more; this means we can use the GLib API for
installing timeout callbacks.

Without selections, drags can't have them either.
Also included is removing the selection from GtkSelectionData.
Includes a bunch of crude cleanups to Wayland code that no longer has to
care about selection atoms.
No idea why it's here, the hash table can store any kind of data,
there's no reason why it wouldn't be able to store an old X string type.
Might be a holdout from the old days, when strings were handled in
a special way (stored directly in the clipboard?).

This prevents GTK from throwing a bunch of warnings when it tries
to get drag source window -> screen of that window -> ipc widget for that screen,
and then tries to attach a signal handler to that widget.
Specifically, this happens when we get a DnD move from another
application.

1) Ensure that any DELETE requests from the target are sent to GDK, even if
both the source and the target are in the same process and it
is therefore possible to use a shortcut and call the handler directly
in GTK layer
2) Ensure that target GDK doesn't do anything when GTK asks it to send
a DELETE request, just report back immediately (the code up the stack
does not check for successfullness when request is DELETE, so not giving
it any data is OK).
The source code already synthesizes a DELETE request, so that side is
also taken care of.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=786509
We need to know the target atom value to know when we need to
do something with side-effects (since side-effects are expressed via
special target values). Previously, the code side-stepped that by looking
at the data type (which was rather unique for the one side-effect
target that we supported, signalled by the TARGETS target),
but for the DELETE target that seems to be no longer an option, hence the new
field to carry this information past the convert_selection() routine.
This prevents GDK from throwing a warning when trying to convert
a DELETE target, which has no format or data objects set.
The side-effects for the DELETE target happen earlier, in GTK layer.
By the point it gets to change_property(), it's a no-op.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=786509
To do that, run the message loop for one second or until the side-effect
of running the selection request handler is achieved (as opposed to
running it until the event is no longer queued).
The disavantage of this method is that if the event handling is
somehow missed (due to a variety of reasons - after all, it's not
a straight path from an event being queued to property_change()
being called), this will loop for one second. Since we do process
events during that time, this will not hang the application, but
might still restrict some of the functionality.

Handle WM_CANCELMODE and do nothing in response to it when DnD is
active. Otherwise pass it to DefWindowProc, which will call ReleaseCapture()
on our behalf.
This prevents us from losing mouse capture when alt-tabbing during DnD
(this includes the feature of Windows Explorer where dragging stuff over
a window button in the taskbar causes that window to receive focus, i.e.
keyboardless alt-tabbing).

Without this patch layered windows are only updated when they are moved
by the user or then their contents changes. This patch adds opacity
changes to the list of things that make GDK update a window. Without this
windows that don't redraw and are not moved by the used (DnD drag indicator
windows, for example) don't change their opacity.

Massive changes to OLE2 DnD protocol, which was completely broken before:
* Keep GdkDragContext and OLE2 objects separate (don't ref/unref them
together, don't necessarily create them together).
* Keep IDataObject formats in the object itself, not in a global variable.
* Fix getdata() to look up the request target in its format list, not in the
global hash table
* Create target GdkDragContext on each drag_enter, destroy it on drag_leave,
whereas IDropTarget is created when a window becomes a drag destination
and is re-used indefinitely.
* Query the source IDataObject for its supported types, cache them in the
target (!) context. This is how GTK+ works, honestly.
* Remember current_src_object when we initiate a drag, to be able
to detect later on that the data object is ours and use a
shortcut when querying targets
* Make sure GDK_DRAG_MOTION is only sent when something changes
* Support GTK drag cursors
* Ensure that exotic GTK clipboard formats are registered
(but try to avoid registering formats that can't be used between applications).
* Don't enumerate internal formats
* Ensure that DnD indicator window can't accept drags or receive any kind of input
(use WS_EX_TRANSPARENT).
* Remove unneeded indentation in _gdk_win32_dnd_do_dragdrop()
* Fix indentation in gdk_win32_drag_context_drop_finish()
* Remove obsolete comments in _gdk_win32_window_register_dnd()
* Check for DnD in progress when processing WM_KILLFOCUS, don't emit a grab
break event in such cases (this allows alt-tabbing while DnD is in progress,
though there may be lingering issues with focus after dropping...)
* Support Shell ID List -> text/uri-list conversion, now it's possible
to drop files (dragged from Explorer) on GTK+ applications
* Explicitly use RegisterClipboardFormatA() when we know that the string
is not in unicode. Otherwise explicitly use RegisterClipboardFormatW()
with a UTF8->UTF16 converted string
* Fix _gdk_win32_display_get_selection_owner() to correctly bail
when selection owner HWND is NULL (looking up GdkWindow for NULL
HWND always succeeds and returns the root window - not the intended
effect)
* More logging
* Send DROP_FINISHED event after DnD loop ends
* Send STATUS event on feedback
* Move GetKeyboardState() and related code into _gdk_win32_window_drag_begin(),
so that it's closer to the point where last_pt and start_pt are set
* Use & 0x80 to check for the key being pressed. Windows will set low-order bit
to 1 for all mouse buttons to indicate that they are toggled, so simply
checking for the value not being 0 is not enough anymore.
This is probably a new thing in modern W32 that didn't exist before
(OLE2 DnD code is old).
* Fixed (hopefully) and simplified HiDPI parts of the code.
Also adds managed DnD implementation for W32 GDK backend (for both
OLE2 and LOCAL protocols). Mostly a copy of the X11 backend code, but
there are some minor differences:
* doesn't use drag_window field in GdkDragContext,
uses the one in GdkWin32DragContext exclusively
* subtracts hotspot offset from the window coordinates when showing
the dragback animation
* tries to consistently support scaling and caches the scale
in the context
* Some keynav code is removed (places where grabbing/ungrabbing should
happen is marked with TODOs), and the rest is probably inert.
Also significantly changes the way selection (and clipboard) is handled
(as MSDN rightly notes, the handling for DnD and Clipboard
formats is virtually the same, so it makes sense to handle
both with the same code):
* Don't spam GDK_OWNER_CHANGE, send them only when owner
actually changes
* Open clipboard when our process becomes the clipboard owner
(we are doing it anyway, to empty the clipboard and *become* the owner),
and then don't close it until a scheduled selection request event
(with TARGETS target) is received. Process that event by announcing
all of our supported formats (by that time add_targets() should have
been called up the stack, thus the formats are known; just in case,
add_targets() will also schedule a selection request, if one isn't
scheduled already, so that late-coming formats can still be announced).
* Allow clipboard opening for selection_convert() to be delayed if it
fails initially.
* The last two points above should fix all the bugs about GTK+ rising
too much ruckus over OpenClipboard() failures, as owner change
*is allowed* to fail (though not all callers currently handle
that case), and selection_convert() is asynchronous to begin with.
Still, this is somewhat risky, as there's a possibility that the
code will work in unexpected ways and the clipboard will remain open.
There's now logging to track the clipboard being opened and closed,
and a number of failsafes that try to ensure that it isn't kept open
for no reason.
* Added copious notes on the way clipboard works on X11, Windows and GDK-W32,
also removed old comments in DnD implementation, replaced some of them
with the new ones
* A lot of crufty module-global variables are stuffed into a singleton
object, GdkWin32Selection. It's technically possible to make it a
sub-object of the Display object (the way Wayland backend does),
but since Display object on W32 is a singleton anyway... why bother?
* Fixed the send_change_events() a bit (was slightly broken in one of the
previous iterations)
* Ensure that there's no confusion between selection conversion (an artifact
term from X11) and selection transmutation (changing the data to be W32-compatible)
* Put all the transmutation code and format-target-matching code into gdkselection-win32.c,
now this code isn't spread across multiple files.
* Consequently, moved some code away from gdkproperty-win32.c and gdkdnd-win32.c
* Extensive format transmutation checks for OLE2 DnD and clipboard.
We now keep track of which format mappings are for transmutations,
and which aren't (for example, when formats are passed as-is, or when
a registered name is just an alias)
* Put transmutation code into separate functions
* Ensure that drop target keeps a format->target map for supported formats,
this is useful when selection_convert() is called, as it only receives a
single target and no hints on the format from which the data should
be transmuted into this target.
* Add clear_targets() on W32, to de called by GTK
* Use g_set_object() instead of g_ref_object() where it is allowed.
* Fix indentation (and convert tabs to spaces), remove unused variables

Instead of using a boolean to indicate a modal operation being in progress,
use a set of flags, and allow these to be set and unset independently.
Specifically, this allows WM_CAPTURECHANGED handler to only act when a drag-move or
drag-resize modal operation is in progress, and ignore DND (which can also cause
WM_CAPTURECHANGED to be posted). This avoids a crash due to assertion failure when
OLE2 DND code tries to end a modal operation that was already ended by the WM_CAPTURECHANGED
handler.

Commit 1d0fad3 revealed that there were some assumptions made that were
actually to compensate for the bug fixed by that commit, so we need to
remove those assumptions as they would result in AerSnap to not work
properly on HiDPI screens.
Also re-do how we set the x and y positions of our GdkWindow, so that we
are more consistent across the board when we go between a GDK window
coordinate and a Windows API window cooredinate.
This would also simplify the code a bit.

Some drivers don't do that (not sure whether that is the correct behaviour
or not). Remember each WT_PROXIMITY with LOWORD(lParam) != 0 that we get,
then look for a WT_CSRCHANGE. If WT_CSRCHANGE doesn't come, but a WT_PACKET
does, assume that this device is the one that sent WT_PROXIMITY.
Also include fallback code to ensure that WT_PACKETs for an enabled device
disable the system pointer, because WT_PROXIMITY handler might have
enabled it by mistake, since it's not possible to know which device left
the proximity (it might have been a disabled device).

Previously HiDPI scale was retrieved and applied too late in the initialization
process to affect monitor size and monitor workarea size, but the code that
initializes these sizes *did* try to use the scale, even though it was always
getting scale=1.
To fix this, move the too-late code into monitor enumeration routine.
This also fixes a probable semantic bug where width and height were divided
by scale, again.
Now monitor and workarea should be in application pixels (i.e. divided by scale),
as intended.

Previously GDK only made up monitors when it initially found none. Now it
also makes up monitors when it initially finds some, but later fails to get
their informatin in a normal way and finally prunes them out, being left with
zero monitors.
Having zero-length monitor array is unexpected and causes a number
of critical warnings and some critical functionality (such as displaying
drop-down menus) fails in such cases.
Ideally, there might be such a way to interrogate W32 API that produces the
information about non-real (but active) monitors out of it so that it isn't
necessary for us to make stuff up. However, this code is already complicated,
and i am not prepared to dig W32 API to find a way to do this.
This fixes the issues people had when they accessed a Windows desktop via RDP.

Windows WM handles AeroSnap for normal windows on keydown. We did this
on keyup only because we do not get a keydown message, even if Windows WM
does nothing with a combination. However, in some specific cases it DOES
do something - and we have no way to detect that. Specifically, winkey+downarrow
causes maximized window to be restored by WM, and GDK fails to detect that. Then
GDK gets a keyup message, figures that winkey+downarrow was pressed and released,
and handles the combination - by minimizing the window.
To overcome this, install a low-level keyboard hook (high-level ones have
the same problem as normal message loop - they don't get messages when
Windows WM handles combinations) and use it to detect interesting key combinations
before Windows WM has a chance to block them from being processed.
Once an interesting combination is detected, post a message to the window, which
will be handled in due order.
It should be noted that this code handles key repetitions in a very crude manner.
The downside is that AeroSnap will not work if hook installation function call fails.
Also, this is a global hook, and if the hook procedure does something wrong, bad things
can happen.

Instead of using some kind of flawed logic about modifying a keypress result
when CapsLock is toggled, just add a CapsLock shift level (and all derived
shift levels, i.e. Shift+CapsLock and CapsLock+AltGr and Shift+CapsLock+AltGr)
and query Windows keyboard layout API about the result of keypresses involving
CapsLock.
Keysym table is going to be (roughly) twice as large now, but CapsLock'ed
keypresses will give correct results for some keyboard layouts (such as
Czech keyboard layout, which without this change produces lowercase letters
for CapsLock->[0,2,3,4...] instead of uppercase ones).
Keymap update time also increases accordingly.
