This PR allows applications to activate themselves *if they provide
a valid xdg_activation token* (e.g. raise to the top and get keyboard
focus).
These tokens are given out by the xdg_activation protocol implemented
by wlroots and can be configured by the client requesting the token
in three ways:
- an "empty" token
(apparently used to tell the compositor about "urgency")
- seat / input serial attached
- surface attached
Wlroots makes sure that
- If the client attached the seat / input serial: those two are valid.
- If the client attached a surface: that it has keyboard focus at the
point where the request is finalized. There is a patch [1] pending
for backport to wlroots 0.16 that also allows valid tokens when the
supplied surface had cursor focus.
- a token is only valid for 30 seconds after being given out
The token can then be used by the client or given to other clients by
unspecified means (e.g. via environment variable or dbus) which then
may use the token on their own surface and request activation.
We only handle the actual request activation part:
- If the seat is set on the token we know wlroots validated seat and
input serial
- Thus, if no seat is set we deny the activation request so we don't
have windows suddenly popping up and taking over the keyboard focus
(focus stealing prevention)
- We should also check for the surface being set but we can't do that
with wlroots 0.16 as it will reset the surface to `NULL` when it is
destroyed (which is something that usually happens for
notifications). Once we move to wlroots 0.17.x we can add the
missing surface check because it provides a `new_token` signal.
We can use it to attach further details to the token which are then
verified later when we decide if we allow the activate request or
not.
With this PR in place the following setup should activate windows:
- launching an URL in foot should activate the target application if
it is already running, foot requests a proper token and then sets it
as `XDG_ACTIVATION_TOKEN` environment var before spawning `xdg-open`
- clicking on a `mako` notification with a `default` action defined
should request a proper token which is then given to the application
starting the notification and can thus be used to activate itself
This protocol is still very much in the process of being
implemented / finalized all over the place (e.g. GTK / QT / Firefox /
notification daemons, ..) but we should do our part and remove labwc
from the puzzle of potential issues causing this not to work.

- Move xwayland-specific struct definitions to new xwayland.h header
- Move xwayland_move_sub_views_to_front() from desktop.c to xwayland.c
- Split out xwayland_server_init/finish() from server_init/finish()
- Rename new_xwayland_surface -> xwayland_new_surface and
xwayland_surface_new() -> handle_new_surface() for consistency
- Add "mapped" argument to xwayland_unmanaged_create() so that we can
make unmanaged_handle_map() private to xwayland-unmanaged.c
This restores the original approach of naming the argument `layout_changed`
which fits much better than `enforce_view_arrange`. Especially when extending
the function to also handle region updates once merged.
Move the desktop_arrange_all_views() call outside layers_arrange() into
a new function, output_update_usable_area(). The new function currently
does exactly what layers_arrange() used to, but will be expanded in a
later commit.
Add output_update_all_usable_areas(), which is the same as calling
output_update_usable_area() for each output, but only calls
desktop_arrange_all_views() once.

- Store a pointer to the `struct view` in `struct ssd`
- Pass `struct ssd *` instead of `struct view *` to ssd functions
- Add `ssd_get_margin()` convenience function
Gather related logic from `reload_config_and_theme()` in `server.c` and
`ssd_reload()` in `ssd.c` into a new function, `view_reload_ssd()`.
Also drop the `view->mapped` check since we want to update any view that
has SSD nodes created, mapped or not.
IMHO it encourages better design (by making dependencies more obvious)
to have source file/header file pairs like view.c/view.h, rather than a
monolithic header like labwc.h with everything in it.
I don't think we need to break up all of labwc.h at once, but maybe we
can start pulling it apart bit by bit as it's convenient.
Also:
- Move "struct border" to ssd.h so that view.h can use it without pulling
in all of labwc.h.
- Add a missing required #include within scaled_font_buffer.h (forward
declaration of "struct font" is not enough).
This ensures that those surprised by the deprecation of SUID operation
receive an error rather than accidentally having run as root.

For some reason wlroots will reset the seat assigned to xwayland
to NULL whenever Xwayland terminates. This patch restores the seat
whenever Xwayland is ready again.

Thanks @droc12345 for figuring out the actual issue.
Apps such as Gamescope eventually want to offer a DRM lease option to use planes and handle all of getting to the screen themselves.
This implements logic to allow leasing of desktop displays
Tracking swaywm/sway@e1db1f8
Add soft deprecation warning to highlight future intent of removing the
code which drops SUID privileges. libseat now has a better alternative in
the form of seatd-launch which uses the normal seatd daemon & libseat
backend and takes care of SUID.
Fixes issue #212
