Having three methods with the same name doing different things is
unnecessarily confusing, so follow the standard naming convention in
Qt and call the getter of the resolve mask resolveMask, and the setter
setResolveMask. These methods were all documented as internal.
The publicly documented resolve() method that merges two fonts and
palettes based on the respective masks remains as it is, even though
'merge' would perhaps be a better name.

Before 0a93db4d82 we would polish the
application palette even when it was the default palette, as we
always recreated the system palette each time a style was set.
After the change we skipped polishing the palette unless it was set
by the user, under the assumption that the style would set its
own default palette if it wanted to override the system palette.
This turned out to break the style's ability to slightly tweak the
palette via polish (versus the more full on standardPalette approach).
We now polish both the default palette and user palettes, and we do
so as part of the normal palette update logic. This ensures that
the style also gets a chance to polish the palette when the platform
theme changes.
The polish will not have an effect on the resolve mask of the palette,
as the polish is conceptually the same as a base palette, and should
not affect e.g. Qt::AA_SetPalette.

Some goals that have hopefully been achieved are:
- make QPointerEvent and QEventPoint resemble their Qt Quick
counterparts to such an extent that we can remove those wrappers
and go back to delivering the original events in Qt Quick
- make QEventPoint much smaller than QTouchEvent::TouchPoint, with no pimpl
- remove most public setters
- reduce the usage of complex constructors that take many arguments
- don't repeat ourselves: move accessors and storage upwards
rather than having redundant ones in subclasses
- standardize the set of accessors in QPointerEvent
- maintain source compatibility as much as possible: do not require
modifying event-handling code in any QWidget subclass
To avoid public setters we now introduce a few QMutable* subclasses.
This is a bit like the Builder pattern except that it doesn't involve
constructing a separate disposable object: the main event type can be
cast to the mutable type at any time to enable modifications, iff the
code is linked with gui-private. Therefore event classes can have
less-"complete" constructors, because internal Qt code can use setters
the same way it could use the ones in QTouchEvent before; and the event
classes don't need many friends. Even some read-accessors can be kept
private unless we are sure we want to expose them.

We have seen during the Qt 5 series that QMouseEvent::source() does
not provide enough information: if it is synthesized, it could have
come from any device for which mouse events are synthesized, not only
from a touchscreen. By providing in every QInputEvent as complete
information about the actual source device as possible, we will enable
very fine-tuned behavior in the object that handles each event.
Further, we would like to support multiple keyboards, pointing devices,
and named groups of devices that are known as "seats" in Wayland.
In Qt 5, QPA plugins registered each touchscreen as it was discovered.
Now we extend this pattern to all input devices. This new requirement
can be implemented gradually; for now, if a QTWSI input event is
received wtihout a device pointer, a default "core" device will be
created on-the-fly, and a warning emitted.
In Qt 5, QTouchEvent::TouchPoint::id() was forced to be unique even when
multiple devices were in use simultaneously. Now that each event
identifies the device it came from, this hack is no longer needed.
A stub of the new QPointerEvent is added; it will be developed further
in subsequent patches.
[ChangeLog][QtGui][QInputEvent] Every QInputEvent now carries a pointer
to an instance of QInputDevice, or the subclass QPointingDevice in case
of mouse, touch and tablet events. Each platform plugin is expected to
create the device instances, register them, and provide valid pointers
with all input events. If this is not done, warnings are emitted and
default devices are created as necessary. When the device has accurate
information, it provides the opportunity to fine-tune behavior depending
on device type and capabilities: for example if a QMouseEvent is
synthesized from a touchscreen, the recipient can see which touchscreen
it came from. Each device also has a seatName to distinguish users on
multi-user windowing systems. Touchpoint IDs are no longer unique on
their own, but the combination of ID and device is.

Note that QWidget::screen is assumed to return a valid pointer; there is

with tests, and asserted. We can then simplify the code further.

For kinetic wheel events, Qt tries to make sure that all events in the
stream go to the widget that accepted the first wheel event.
It did so by directing all events from the stream to the widget from
which the spontaneous event was returned as accepted.
However, that widget might have passed the event on to some other
widgets; e.g QScrollArea forwards wheel events from the viewport to the
relevant scroll bar. The event might then have come back accepted only
because parent propagation kicked in (the scrollbar might not accept
the event, so the parents get a chance, and some parent's scrollbar
ultimately accepts the event).
In this scenario, the wheel widget would be the viewport under the
mouse, when it should have been the scrollbar of the parent. The
next events from the stream were then delivered to a widget that didn't
scroll; and parent propagation is not (and should not be) implemented
for the case where Qt has a wheel widget.
Instead, make the first widget that accepts any initial wheel event
the wheel widget, even if the event was not spontaneous. With this
change, all events from the stream are delivered to the widget that
actually handled the event. That has the effect that ie. a viewport
of a scroll area only gets the first event; all following events are
delivered directly to the scrollbar.
The test case added simulates the different scenarios - nesting of
scroll areas, classic wheel events and a stream of kinetic wheel
events.

creates an event stream are correctly delivered to the widget that

result in multiple calls to QWidgetPrivate::setVisible(false). The first
one from the handling of the close event in QWidgetWindow::event; the
second from the destruction of the window in QWindow::event.
Since the first call already sets the Qt::WA_WState_Hidden flag before
calling QWidgetPrivate::hide_helper, we can test if the flag is set
and skip the second call if it is.
The included test does not reproduce the issue, as that issue only
reproduces if the close event is generated by the mouse event handling
in the Cocoa platform plugin (which doesn't call QWidget::close, but
rather sends a native close event to the platform window). However, it
