Now that all Cairo contexts are ported to managing cairo surfaces
themselves, the old fallback code that didi the managing is no longer
needed.
Also clarify the behavior of gdk_cairo_context_cairo_create() wrt the
vfunc by doing the early exit and the clipping outside of it.
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.
This error message is printed into the journal if a GTK app can't
connect to eithre Wayland or X11. Make it at least mention who is not
capable of connecting to a server.
Unrelated, we might want to improve our error reporting when a GTK app
can't start, so that debugging issues with system startup / login get
easier to resolve.
This is an automatic rename of various things related

Rename all *window.[ch] source files.
This is an automatic operation, done by the following commands:
for i in $(git ls-files gdk | grep window); do
git mv $i $(echo $i | sed s/window/surface/);
git sed -f g $(basename $i) $(basename $i | sed s/window/surface/) ;
done

This renames the GdkWindow class and related classes (impl, backend
subclasses) to surface. Additionally it renames related types:
GdkWindowAttr, GdkWindowPaint, GdkWindowWindowClass, GdkWindowType,
GdkWindowTypeHint, GdkWindowHints, GdkWindowState, GdkWindowEdge
This is an automatic conversion using the below commands:
git sed -f g GdkWindowWindowClass GdkSurfaceSurfaceClass
git sed -f g GdkWindow GdkSurface
git sed -f g "gdk_window\([ _\(\),;]\|$\)" "gdk_surface\1" # Avoid hitting gdk_windowing

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.
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_idle() and
gdk_threads_add_idle_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 idle callbacks.

The query function for cursor sizes and capabilities
are not very interesting. At least, they are not used
in GTK+, and all backends but X11 just hardcode
made-up values anyway. So, lets drop them.
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.
Instead of just passing the GdkContentFormats, we are now passing the
GdkContentProvider to gdk_drag_begin().
This means that GDK itself can now query the data from the provider
directly instead of having to send selection events.
Use this to provide the private API gdk_drag_context_write() that allows
backends to pass an output stream that this data will be written to.
Implement this as the mechanism for providing drag data on Wayland.
And to make this all work, implement a content provider named
GtkDragContent that is implemented by reverting to the old DND
drag-data-get machinery inside GTK, so for widgets everything works just
like before.
Instead, pass the actions as part of gdk_drag_begin() and insist DND is
always managed.
A new side effect is that gdk_drag_begin() can now return %NULL.
