This gets rid of one layer of indirection with the struct message in
between - we can now call from the proto parser into the handling code
directly.

This keeps most of the current structure but gets rid of client-side
keymaps (which have been broken since the server-side devices anyway).
The new approach: clients get a keymap (or NULL) from the server, if
they don't like it they will have to do transformation on their side.

With keymap messages, we may get and process data on the wire
but it doesn't necessarily result in a visible event. We need to enter
dispatch again to process the data in the next packet.

This is slightly inconsistent with the configure API but more consistent
with the device API (which also has a new() + add()). It reduces
potential bugs though because the region cannot be added to two devices
anymore, and this way we also get a context in the region from the start
(which means we can log).

This isn't something that libei itself uses but clients like synergy
need to know about this to be able to map relative pointer motion from
one host into the right physical pixel on another host.
This is required for mutter in the x11-compat mode where a 4k screen is
logically twice the size of a 2k screen, despite having the same
physical size.

This is required for supporting synergy/barrier and similar clients.
Replacing the touch and pointer range we now have server-defined
rectangular regions that specify the active zones for this device.
For example, a dual-monitor EIS server would create two touch devices
with one region each for the respective monitors - libei-generated
touches would thus fall on the right area of the monitor. Or just one
device with one region if the second screen should be inaccessible.
A relative device may have multiple regions since it can reach all
screens in the layout.
This leaks the screen layout to libei but that is necessary for the
functionality to work. A libei client may need to control devices
through absolute coordinates and it needs to know where screen
transitions from one to the next screen happen:
+-----------++----------------+
| || |
| B||Q |
| |+----------------+
| |
| A|P
+-----------+
In the above example, position P is unreachable and a client that
controls input on both screens must know that it cannot transition from
A to P but it can transition from B to Q.

If our client binds to a seat and then disconnects, insert an unbind
event in the EIS queue to unwind correctly.

Once a device is removed, it is moved to the seat's devices_removed
list and the seat's ref is dropped - meaning the seat no longer keeps
the device alive. Once the caller's refcounts drop, the device can be
destroyed.
The device still keeps the seat alive though through a ref.

device IDs are combined with the seat ID, let's make sure the lower bits

This changes the protocol so that it is the EIS implementation that
creates devices within a seat.
A client now "binds" to a seat and the EIS implementation creates
devices matching the requested capabilities. A client can close a device
if it no longer wants those but otherwise everything (including pointer
ranges) is handled by the server.
This is one giant patch because changes at the protocol level cannot
easily be broken out into smaller patches. Some FIXMEs are left which
will be handled in follow-up patches, e.g. the keymap handling is
basically broken right now.

The uinput path ended up diverged from the printf codepath and does not
create any seats and we can't process events.

Once the SEAT_REMOVED event has been processed, adding new devices is
pointless. But we do promise a DEVICE_REMOVED event for any device added with
ei_device_add(), so let's immediately queue an event and mark the device as
dead.
Since the SEAT_REMOVED event may still be pending in the queue (i.e. not yet
read by the client), we need to prepend the event to the queue. Note that
client that immediately add a device when a device is removed will cause
an infinite loop.

This simplifies the handling of devices that were never added a bit, including
handling the refs between seat and device. And for legitimate use-cases
there's no reason why a caller would create a device but never add it.

Previously we didn't always clean up properly, especially where unexpected
removals happened. So the new approach is:
- the device always has a ref to the seat, we must not remove the seat until
even not-yet-added devices are released
- the seat has a ref to the device *after* it was added. this is a circular
ref so we need to make sure the device is manually removed from the seat
so we can actually reach a refcount 1
This is made slightly more complicated by us calling ei_disconnect() whenever
we fail to write on the fd. The result is re-entrant functions that we need to
protect against inadvertent changes. The best option here is probably to mark
the context as degraded and clean up once we finished whatever we were really
doing - that's a larger rework though.
