Traditionally (and on most backends) there's a single master pointer driven
by all pointing devices. The notable exception is Wayland though, where
master pointing devices are created per capability in the case of
pointer/touch, and one for each drawing tablet.
This function call makes it easy to access all these.

This API allows specifying a GType and va_args of a value of that type
to set the clipboard contents. This massively simplifies setting weird
object types into the clipboard.
2 example patches included in this patch are the GtkTextBuffer and the
file list in the file chooser.
Using gobject-introspection, this should work without specifying the
type, so that you can literlally say
clipboard.set ("Hello World")
or
clipboard.set (pixbuf)
which is why I've also marked all other setters as (skip). They just
exist in C as wrappers for type safety reasons.
Instead of having just one function that has the gtype and mime type as
out arguments, have 3 functions: 1 that finds any match, 1 that finds a
GType match and one for a mime type match.
This makes the API way more convenient to use.
This is not used by anything yet, but add it now, so people looking at
this new code can make sense of it.
Plus, the documentation mentions it, so better have the docs make sense.
It will be used once we add support for conversions to GDK and allow
doing cipboard/dnd by GValue.
Make sure the API reflects the idea that GdkContentFormats is a set
containing mime types. In particular, treat the object itself as a
plural - it's named content format`S' after all - and therefor use
the correct verb form.
Also make GdkContentFormats keep an array instead of a list, now that
it's immutable.
and gdk_texture_new_from_resource().
While doing set, turn all GDK_AVAILABLE_IN_3_90 into
GDK_AVAILABLE_IN_3_94 because that's now true after the renaming.
Instead of creating a GdkX11Cursor, create GdkCursors. Cache the XCursor
in a hash table instead.
Also, make use of the new fallback mechanism for fallback code: Make
sure to provide cursors for the names that are guaranteed to exist, but
do not do bad attempts at displaying texture surfaces.
Black/White/transparent is not a replacement for those.
The preferred api to create cursors is by name, and the
GdkCursorType enumeration can directly trace its ancestry
to the horrible X cursor font. So lets stop using it.
