This patch makes that work using 1 of 2 options:
1. Add all missing enums to the switch statement
or
2. Cast the switch argument to a uint to avoid having to do that (mostly
for GdkEventType).
I even found a bug while doing that: clearing a GtkImage with a surface
did not notify thae surface property.
The reason for enabling this flag even though it is tedious at times is
that it is very useful when adding values to an enum, because it makes
GTK immediately warn about all the switch statements where this enum is
relevant.
And I expect changes to enums to be frequent during the GTK4 development
cycle.
We're not currently using this, and dropping it allows us to loose
a bunch of code which leads us towards the goal of having GdkWindow
only for toplevels (and reparenting makes not sense for toplevels).
We can't really support these on e.g. wayland anyway, and we're trying
to get rid of subwindow at totally in the long term, so lets drop this.
It allows us to drop a lot of complexity.
These complicate a lot of GdkWindow internals to implement features
that not a lot of apps use, and will be better achieved using gsk.
So, we just drop it all.
... and gdk_screen_get_width_mm() and gdk_screen_get_height_mm() and
the shortcut counterparts that call these functions on the default
screen.
Modern display servers don't provide an ability to query the size of a
screen or display so we shouldn't allow that either.
In various places, the broadway backend was just using
the default display and assumed that it is the broadway
display. That may not be the case in a multi-backend world,
so instead iterate over all displays and use the first
broadway display - still not perfect, but enough to survive
for now.
Remove checks for NULL before g_free() and g_clear_object().
Merge check for NULL, freeing of pointer and its setting
to NULL by g_clear_pointer().

Traditionally, the way painting was done in GTK+ was with the
"expose-event" handler, where you'd use GDK methods to do drawing on
your surface. In GTK+ 2.24, we added cairo support with gdk_cairo_create,
so you could paint your graphics with cairo.
Since then, we've added client-side windows, double buffering, the paint
clock, and various other enhancements, and the modern way to do drawing
is to connect to the "draw" signal on GtkWidget, which hands you a
cairo_t. To do double-buffering, the cairo_t we hand you is actually on
a secret surface, not the actual backing store of the window, and when
the draw handler completes we blit it into the main backing store
atomically.
The code to do this is with the APIs gdk_window_begin_paint_region,
which creates the temporary surface, and gdk_window_end_paint which
blits it back into the backing store. GTK+'s implementation of the
"draw" signal uses these APIs.
We've always sort-of supported people calling gdk_cairo_create
"outside" of a begin_paint / end_paint like old times, but then you're
not getting the benefit of double-buffering, and it's harder for GDK to
optimize.
Additionally, newer backends like Mir and Wayland can't actually support
this model, since they're based on double-buffering and swapping buffers
at various points in time. If we hand you a random cairo_t, we have no
idea when is a good time to swap.
Remove support for this.
This is technically a GDK API break: a warning is added in cases where
gdk_cairo_create is called outside of a paint cycle, and the returned
surface is a dummy that won't ever be composited back onto the main
surface. Testing with complex applications like Ardour didn't produce
any warnings.
