Olivier Fourdan 4d2128fd1d xwayland: Use relative device for buttons/axis/enter/leave
We are using the relative pointer for motion events, but buttons and
axis events still go through the absolute pointer device.

That means additional DeviceChanged events that could be avoided if the
buttons and axis events were coming from the same device as motion
events.

However, routing just the buttons and axis events is not sufficient. In
Weston, clicking the window decoration of an Xwayland client gives us a
wl_pointer.button event immediately followed by a wl_pointer.leave event.
The leave event does not contain any button state information, so the button
remains logically down in the DIX.

Once the pointer button is released, a wl_pointer.enter event is sent with
the current button state (zero). This needs to trigger a ButtonRelease event
but for that we need to ensure that the device is the same as the one we send
ButtonPress events through.

Route those events along with enter/leave events to the relative pointer
if available so that motion, buttons and axis events come from the same
device (most of the time).

X Server

The X server accepts requests from client applications to create windows, which are (normally rectangular) "virtual screens" that the client program can draw into.

Windows are then composed on the actual screen by the X server (or by a separate composite manager) as directed by the window manager, which usually communicates with the user via graphical controls such as buttons and draggable titlebars and borders.

For a comprehensive overview of X Server and X Window System, consult the following article: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/X_server
