The protocol uses a signed integer here, which is also what the
wlr_input_method_v2_preedit_string struct provides to compositors from
the input method protocol. Sway currently just passes those int32_t
values directly to this function leading to an implicit conversion.
The data field is useful to track metadata about a token. The destroy
events are useful for compositors that track application startup to
let them know they can stop doing that.
These new functions allow a compositor to request new managed tokens
without participating in the xdg-activation procedure as a wayland
client.
This enables the compositor itself to behave as a launcher
application.
Currently these functions remove the node from the scene if the sibling
argument is the same node as the node. To prevent confusion when
misusing this API, assert that the nodes are distinct and document this.
These functions are used mostly for rendering, where including unmapped
surfaces is undesired.
This is a breaking change. However, few to no usages will have to be
updated.
struct wlr_xdg_surface_state is introduced to hold the geometry
and configure serial to be applied on next wl_surface.commit.
This commit fixes our handling for ack_configure: instead of making
the request mutate our current state, it mutates the pending state
only.

As touchpad touches are generally fully abstracted, a client cannot
currently know when a user is interacting with the touchpad without
moving. This is solved by hold gestures.
Hold gestures are notifications about one or more fingers being held
down on the touchpad without significant movement.
Hold gestures are primarily designed for two interactions:
- Hold to interact: where a hold gesture is active for some time a
menu could pop up, some object could be selected, etc.
- Hold to cancel: where e.g. kinetic scrolling is currently active,
the start of a hold gesture can be used to stop the scroll.
Unlike swipe and pinch, hold gestures, by definition, do not have
movement, so there is no need for an "update" stage in the gesture.
Create two structs, wlr_event_pointer_hold_begin and
wlr_event_pointer_hold_end, to represent hold gesture events and the
signals to emit them: wlr_pointer->pointer.hold_begin/hold_end.
Previously, `wlr_xdg_toplevel` didn't follow the usual "current state +
pending state" pattern and instead had confusingly named
`client_pending` and `server_pending`. This commit removes them, and
instead introduces `wlr_xdg_toplevel.scheduled` to store the properties
that are yet to be sent to a client, and `wlr_xdg_toplevel.requested`
to store the properties that a client has requested. They have different
types to emphasize that they aren't actual states.
This allows callers to specify the operations they'll perform on
the returned data pointer. The motivations for this are:
- The upcoming Linux MAP_NOSIGBUS flag may only be usable on
read-only mappings.
- gbm_bo_map with GBM_BO_TRANSFER_READ hurts performance.
