This is a huge reorganization of GtkDropTarget. I did not know how to
split this up, so it's unfortunately all one commit.
Highlights:
- Split GtkDropTarget into GtkDropTarget and GtkDropTargetAsync
GtkDropTarget is the simple one that only works with GTypes and offers
a synchronous interface.
GtkDropTargetAsync retains the full old functionality and allows
handling mime types.
- Drop events are handled differently
Instead of picking a single drop target and sending all DND events to
it, every event is sent to every drop target. The first one to handle
the event gets to call gdk_drop_status(), further handlers do not
interact with the GdkDrop.
Of course, for the ultimate GDK_DROP_STARTING event, only the first
one to accept the drop gets to handle it.
This allows stacking DND event controllers that aren't necessarily
interested in handling the event or that might decide later to drop
it.
- Port all widgets to either of those
Both have a somewhat changed API due to the new event handling.
For the ones who should use the sync version, lots of cleanup was
involved to operate on a sync API.
By running it in the capture phase, it will not be starved for events by
the button's click source and make drags actually start a color drag
operation.
Content providers are meant to be immutable, apart from very special
cases, but in those cases they need to emit
gdk_content_provider_content_changed().
Having a constructor that just uses a get_func invites abuse of this
by not making developers aware of those requirments.
In fact, all users in GTK failed to do this.
Instead, code should use the GtkDragSource::prepare signal to create
content providers when needed.
The same problem exists with gdk_content_provider_new_with_formats(),
but this commit doesn't touch that.
Remove arguments from the constructor.
For actions, we now default to COPY, which is the most common one
that we should enable by default (MOVE requires handling deletion
on the the source side, and ASK only makes sense if we have
multiple actions).
For the content provider, we add a new ::prepare signal where
it should be provided just-in-time.
Now that roots can have parent widgets, we need to
carefully examine all calls of gtk_widget_get_toplevel,
and replace them with gtk_widget_get_root if we want
the nearest root, and not the ultimate end of the parent
chain.
This is to go along with the newly introduced GdkDrop.
This commit includes the necessary updates to the X11, Wayland
and Broadway backends. Other backends have to be updated separately.
This allows being more specific about the size.
It's useful in particular when the resulting render nodes might be
too small for the size, not only when they are too large. For the
latter case, using a clip node would be enough.
It also requires adding a clip node when rendering the resulting
paintable, but that should be optimized out by GtkSnapshot when not
necessary.
This is an automated change doing these command:
git sed -f g gtk_widget_set_has_window gtk_widget_set_has_surface
git sed -f g gtk_widget_get_has_window gtk_widget_get_has_surface
git sed -f g gtk_widget_set_parent_window gtk_widget_set_parent_surface
git sed -f g gtk_widget_get_parent_window gtk_widget_get_parent_surface
git sed -f g gtk_widget_set_window gtk_widget_set_surface
git sed -f g gtk_widget_get_window gtk_widget_get_surface
git sed -f g gtk_widget_register_window gtk_widget_register_surface
git sed -f g gtk_widget_unregister_window gtk_widget_unregister_surface
git checkout NEWS*
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.
Instead of allowing people to pass a uint user-data, insist on them
comparing mime types.
The user data was a uint instead of a pointer anyway, so uniqueness
could not be guaranteed and it caused more issues than it was worth.
And that's ignoring the fact that it basically wasn't used.
Without specifically connecting ::delete-event to something, the dialog
will be destroyed when it is closed, for example by pressing Esc. This
meant that when dismissing it this way, unlike by pressing Cancel, any
custom palette would be lost when the dialog was next opened, and so on.
Resolve this by making ::delete-event just do GTK_RESPONSE_CANCEL, so
closing the dialog has the same effect as clicking its Cancel button.

Since setting a clip is mandatory for almost all widgets, we can as well
change the size-allocate signature to include a out_clip parameter, just
like GtkCssGadget did. And since we now always propagate baselines, we
might as well pass that one on to size-allocate.
This way we can also make sure to transform the clip returned from
size-allocate to parent-coordinates, i.e. the same coordinate space
priv->allocation is in.
