Previously, each begin_paint_region added to a stack of current paints,
and when end_paint was called, the paint was popped off of the stack and
the surface was composited into the parent paint surface.
However, the code was broken in the case of a backend like Wayland which
didn't keep track of nested calls and simply wiped and returned the
native impl backing surface every time.
Since this feature is flat out unused by GTK+ and we don't want to
really support tricksy things like these for other clients, just remove
the feature. If somebody does call begin_paint_region more than once,
warn and return without doing anything.
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.
It seems that some backends implemented get_root_origin wrong
and returned the client window coordinates, not the frame window
coordinates. Since it's possible to implement generically for all
windows, let's do that instead of having a separate impl vfunc.
Instead of destroying the surface in the backend if this is
unable to resize, let the core code do it, and do it properly.
Based on a patch by Benjamin Otte.

Put dialogs and utility windows in the same level as normal and
toolbar windows so that Gtk can control their stacking instead of
forcing them, rather unnaturally, to be on top of all other windows,
even other application windows, even when another application has
focus.
If a motion event handler (or other handler running from the flush-events
phase of the frame clock) recursed the main loop then flushing wouldn't
complete until after the recursed main loop returned, and various aspects
of the state would get out of sync.
To fix this, change flushing of the event queue to simply mark events as
ready to flush, and let normal event delivery handle the rest.

We want a surface so we can properly represent the scale factor for it.
All backends are converted to use surfaces and we reimplement the
backwards compat code in the generic code.
We've long had double precision mouse coordinates on wayland (e.g.
when rotating a window) but with the new scaling we even have it on
X (and, its also in Xinput2), so convert all the internal mouse/device
position getters to use doubles and add new accessors for the
public APIs that take doubles instead of ints.
and not on each keystroke, which for some IMs apparently caused a full
update on each keystroke, not just a check for changes. Patch from
Takuro Ashie, bug #698183.
window_type_hint_to_level(): applied patch from Paul Davis which moves
dialogs to NSFloatingWindowLevel. This is not quite the perfect
solution, but it's a pragmatic fix that makes apps which have both
window types much more usable, and prevents dialog from disappearing
under an application's main window.

This is left over from an old effort to bundle gtk and its dependencies
into a Mac OS X Framework. The effort was more or less successful but
proved difficult to maintain and impractical to use because gtk programs
don't use the special Framework include syntax.
Change the visibility handling to be the same way we do it in
GLib now. We pass -fvisibility=hidden to gcc and decorate public
functions with __attribute__((visibility("default"))).
This commit just does this for GDK, GTK+ will follow later.
