backend/wayland: Fix HiDPI support for nested compositors

Browse source 
When running a wlroots-based compositor nested under another Wayland
compositor with HiDPI scaling, the nested window appears blurry and
incorrectly sized. This is because the Wayland backend does not:

1. Detect and track the parent compositor's output scale
2. Set wl_surface_set_buffer_scale() to match the parent's scale
3. Multiply output dimensions by the scale factor when handling
   configure events

This patch fixes all three issues by:

- Adding wlr_wl_parent_output structure to track parent outputs
- Listening to wl_output.scale events from the parent compositor
- Setting buffer_scale on all backend surfaces (output and layers)
- Scaling output dimensions to account for buffer scale
- Setting wlr_output.scale so nested clients render at correct DPI
