d2cf5a7ba5 frontend: Explicitly add a check for printing warning
Fixes a minor issue with 28bdcb46be ("frontend: Log when exiting due to
insufficient active outputs") to only print that we have
no outputs enabled but we're allowed to continue when we actually get to
that scenario.

c594aa22cb backend-drm: offload post-blend color transformation to KMS
In this patch we allow offloading the post-blend color transformation
to KMS.

As KMS currently only supports to offload the transformation in a LUT,
this may result in precision issues. So this introduces the config
option "offload-blend-to-output", which is disabled by default.

This option requires "color-management" to be enabled, otherwise it is
ignored.

6b1b3d167d xwm: Add command line option to disable window decor
Our window decor uses cairo-xcb. cairo-xcb stores xcb_connection_t
internally and uses them as kind of a hash key for internal bookkeeping.
This needs to be torn down with a cairo_device_finish, when the last
cairo surface is destroyed, and we are not properly handling that.

Because of this weston bug, if the Xwayland server dies, is restarted,
and the weston X window manager gets the same xcb_connection_t pointer
value for a new connection that it had for a previous connection,
cairo-xcb will use stale state and crash.

Weston is used in some places (like Mesa CI) where Xwayland crashes are
more common than one might usually expect, and weston needs to be robust
against these failures. It's ok to have no window frames in xwl in these
cases, because nobody is interacting with the windows.

The '--no-xwm-decorations' command line option will now remove
cairo-xcb from use entirely, so this crash can no longer happen.

We should still fix the bugs in our cairo usage, but I think long term
it's still ok to have a way to disable this and reduce complexity.

0600265c64 frontend: Make use of the advertised debug scopes
This patch introduces a new cmd line option, namely `--debug-scopes`
(or shorthand `-d`) to limit which debug scopes are being advertised
over the westond-debug protocol.

To avoid tedious work to make this work in the same time as `--debug`, a
boolean type of option which doesn't accept any other entries, I've
decided to have a dedicated string cmd line argument.

If passing `--debug` all debug scopes are advertised by default
(keep the same behaviour). If you'd like to limit which of those scopes are
advertised, use the -d and only that one those scopes be advertised.
Pass these as a command-separated list.

8f56d03d4b libweston: Vulkan renderer
A Vulkan renderer for weston, based on the GL renderer.
The goal is to impose the least requirements as possible on Vulkan
implementations, as to allow even Vulkan 1.0 (or early development)
drivers to run a Wayland compositor. Any additional features or
extensions are made optional if possible.
Currently supports drm, wayland, x11 and headless backends.
As of this implementation, this is still considered an experimental
renderer.

d553333da8 frontend: Share a native output using 'mirror-of' keyword
This would allow to screen-share a particular output like the
following:

[output]
name=vnc
same-as=DP-5

[output]
name=rdp-0
same-as=DP-4

[output]
name=pipewire
same-as=eDP-1

Both 'vnc', 'pipewire' 'rdp-0' remote outputs would then be a
screen-share 'DP-5', respectively, 'e-DP1', or the 'DP-4' DRM output.

Currently, this is intended only for VNC, RDP and PipeWire remote outputs.

This patch exports weston_output_set_position(), and uses that for
overlapping a remote output with a native DRM one, rather than using
weston_output_move() as that has a side-effect when reflowing outputs
from shells.

Further more creating this remote output is driven entirely by compositor
signal events such that enabling an DRM native output would enable the
remote output, while disabling the native would have the same outcome
for the remote one.

f4c69abc57 libweston: Let multiple backends register the Windowed Output API
The windowed output API is implemented by the Wayland, the X11 and the
headless backends. It's currently not possible to create a secondary
headless backend when the primary backend is Wayland or X11 because
the windowed output API would be registered twice. This commit
suffixes the windowed output API names with the backend name in order
to avoid clashes: "weston_windowed_output_api_<backend>_v2".

A use case for Wayland or X11 as primary backend and headless as
secondary is for instance to request output captures on the headless
backend to avoid read backs on the primary backend's render buffers.

288f552275 compositor: Add support for a command input.
This command is being executed in parallel with the westen instance,
just like the autolaunch config.

I recently came across the kiosk-shell and found out I could start a program exclusive
weston instance using it and that opened my eyes to new possibilities.

With the desktop-shell, it is necessary to set up quite a few options like the panel launchers,
the background image/color and a few other things and that indeed make the configuration file mandatory.

With the kiosk-shell all you really care about is the underlying program,
the vast majority of the configuration file options are not relevant for that shell.
That made me wonder how convenient it would be to forego the configuration file
and implement the autolaunch option directly in the weston program. That indeed worked pretty
well and that is why I decided to propose this merge request.

I think this avenue opens up a different set of uses cases for weston where rather than just have one
"big" desktop-shell instance, we could have multiple smaller and potentially specific usage instances.
Yes, it can be done with configuration files currently. But what it boils down to is convenience.
Maybe this convenience will enable other people to start more than just one weston instance
in the future. For instance, to quickly watch an image or opening up a pdf file.

This patch was made in a matter that is meant to be consistent with the intuitive
way other programs accept a command input, like so :

weston <some options> -- some_command option1 ... optionN

Further work would be necessary to remove the requirement for the '--'
option. To do that, we would need to check if the option is a valid command
and not just a mistyped option.

There may be some conflict with the current autolaunch implementation.
I'm not sure if both 'command' and 'autolaunch' could be used at the
same time using this implementation. I think it would be necessary to
have a distinct watch and pid variable in the 'wet' context variable
for the command to support this.
