This makes the scanner generate the code and meta data to send the
interface name and version when we pass a typeless new_id. This way, the
generic factory mechanism provided by wl_display.bind can be provided by
any interface.
This introduces wl_event_queue, which is what will make multi-threaded
wayland clients possible and useful. The driving use case is that of a
GL rendering thread that renders and calls eglSwapBuffer independently of
a "main thread" that owns the wl_display and handles input events and
everything else. In general, the EGL and GL APIs have a threading model
that requires the wayland client library to be usable from several threads.
Finally, the current callback model gets into trouble even in a single
threaded scenario: if we have to block in eglSwapBuffers, we may end up
doing unrelated callbacks from within EGL.
The wl_event_queue mechanism lets the application (or middleware such as
EGL or toolkits) assign a proxy to an event queue. Only events from objects
associated with the queue will be put in the queue, and conversely,
events from objects associated with the queue will not be queue up anywhere
else. The wl_display struct has a built-in event queue, which is considered
the main and default event queue. New proxies are associated with the
same queue as the object that created them (either the object that a
request with a new-id argument was sent to or the object that sent an
event with a new-id argument). A proxy can be moved to a different event
queue by calling wl_proxy_set_queue().
A subsystem, such as EGL, will then create its own event queue and associate
the objects it expects to receive events from with that queue. If EGL
needs to block and wait for a certain event, it can keep dispatching event
from its queue until that events comes in. This wont call out to unrelated
code with an EGL lock held. Similarly, we don't risk the main thread
handling an event from an EGL object and then calling into EGL from a
different thread without the lock held.
The update callback for the file descriptors was always a bit awkward and
un-intuitive. The idea was that whenever the protocol code needed to
write data to the fd it would call the 'update' function. This function
would adjust the mainloop so that it polls for POLLOUT on the fd so we
can eventually flush the data to the socket.
The problem is that in multi-threaded applications, any thread can issue
a request, which writes data to the output buffer and thus triggers the
update callback. Thus, we'll be calling out with the display mutex
held and may call from any thread.
The solution is to eliminate the udpate callback and just require that
the application or server flushes all connection buffers before blocking.
This turns out to be a simpler API, although we now require clients to
deal with EAGAIN and non-blocking writes. It also saves a few syscalls,
since the socket will be writable most of the time and most writes will
complete, so we avoid changing epoll to poll for POLLOUT, then write and
then change it back for each write.
strlen() doesn't include the terminating NUL. Therefore when allocating a
block of memory to hold something equivalent to the length of the string we
must increment to take the NUL byte into consideration.

We really shouldn't add the man-pages when HAVE_XSLTPROC is not true so
move it into the if-clause.
But declare the automake-variables outside of the if-clause to avoid
automake complaints.

This adds a man-page infrastructure based on Docbook XML files. This
allows us to integrate the man-pages into the publican books later. An
example page for wl_display_connect() (with an alias
wl_display_connect_to_fd()) is also added.
Feel free to add more man-pages. Function calls are put in man3 and
overview pages into man7. All pages (including aliases) have to be added
to the Makefile.
Docbook does generate aliases automatically from the additional names that
were put in the XML file. However, a small SED script is needed to fixup
the include-paths in the generated troff files. If someone knows how to
avoid that (or even install them gzip'ped), please fix it up.

When integrating the wayland event-loop into another event-loop, we
currently have no chance of checking whether there are pending idle
sources that have to be called. This patch exports the
"dispatch_idle_sources()" call so other event loops can call this before
going to sleep. This is what wl_event_loop_dispatch() currently does so we
simply allow external event-loops to do the same now.
To avoid breaking existing applications, we keep the call to
dispatch_idle_sources() in wl_event_loop_dispatch() for now. However, if
we want we can remove this later and require every application to call
this manually. This needs to be discussed, but the overhead is negligible
so we will probably leave it as it is.
This finally allows to fully integrate the wayland-server API into
existing event-loops without any nasty workarounds.

wl_client_add_resource() used to return no error even though the new
resource wasn't added to the client. This currently makes it very easy to
DOS weston by simply posting thousands of "create_surface" requests with
an invalid ID. Weston simply assumes the wl_client_add_resource() request
succeeds but will never destroy the surface again as the "destroy" signal
is never called (because the surface isn't linked into the wl_map).
This change makes wl_client_add_resource() return the new ID of the added
object and 0 on failure. Servers (like weston) can now correctly
immediately destroy the surface when this call fails instead of leaving
the surface around and producing memory-leaks.
Instead of returning -1 on failure and 0 on success, I made it return the
new ID as this seems more appropriate. We can directly use it when calling
it with new_id==0.

There is really no need to increment "n" if we never read the value. The
do-while() loop overwrites the value before it is read the first time.

This theme is loaded when the specified cursor theme can not be found.
These cursors are extracted from the xorg sources and transformed into
raw ARGB data by a small helper program (commited separately).
This finalizes Robert Bradfords patch to allow NO_ASSERT_LEAK_CHECK
environment variable to disable leak checks in unit tests.

This patch adds a few more directories to search for xcursor themes.
Along with the weston patch, this adds the ability to configure weston
to use an X11 cursor theme. Previously, wayland cursor would just look
in the icons and pixmaps directories for cursor images to load. This
adds the ability to also search in the x cursors directory.
Expose these to other files using wayland-private.h, so wayland-client.c
can walk NULLables properly.

Since glibc dlsym() calls calloc, we get a call to our calloc wrapper as
we try to look up the real calloc implementation. dlsym() will fall back
to a static buffer in case calloc returns NULL, so that's what we'll do.
This is all highly glibc dependent, of course, but the entire malloc
weak symbol wrapper mechanism is, so there's no loss of generality here.
So all our tests don't start failing just because we had the temerity to
use realloc() rather than malloc().

If a new object id arrives ensure that there is an empty array entry
created, otherwise we might get out of sync for new ids if object isn't
created by interface implementation.
Creation of new client resources was silently ignored when
wl_client_add_resource() was used on server side and new object id was out
of range.
An error is now send out to the client in such case.
Also changed error message in wl_client_add_object, since
wl_map_insert_at() returns -1 only at invalid new id.
