doc: Improve libwayland-client doxygen documentation

Document wl_proxy, wl_display and wl_event_queue classes and add a
description to all public entry points. Also fix some typos.

 /** \class wl_proxy

 /** \class wl_display
+ *
+ * \brief Represents a connection to the compositor and acts as a proxy to

+ *
+ * A \ref wl_display object represents a client connection to a Wayland
+ * compositor. It is created with either \ref wl_display_connect() or
+ * \ref wl_display_connect_to_fd(). A connection is terminated using
+ * \ref wl_display_disconnect().
+ *
+ * A \ref wl_display is also used as the \ref wl_proxy for the \ref wl_display
+ * singleton object on the compositor side.
+ *
+ * A \ref wl_display object handles all the data sent from and to the
+ * compositor. When a \ref wl_proxy marshals a request, it will write its wire
+ * representation to the display's write buffer. The data is sent to the
+ * compositor when the client calls \ref wl_display_flush().
+ *
+ * Event handling is done in a thread-safe manner using event queues. The
+ * display has a \em main event queue where initially all the events are
+ * queued. The listeners for the events queued in it are called when the
+ * client calls \ref wl_display_dispatch().
+ *
+ * The client can create additional event queues with \ref
+ * wl_display_create_queue() and assign different \ref wl_proxy objects to it.
+ * The events for a proxy are always queued only on its assign queue, that can
+ * be dispatched by a different thread with \ref wl_display_dispatch_queue().
+ *
+ * All the \ref wl_display's functions are thread-safe.
