Tudor Brindus 7bb9d48dd1 xwayland: remove stale transfers from the same requestor 
It seems that if we ever try to reply to a selection request after
another has been sent by the same requestor (we reply in FIFO order),
the requestor never reads from it, and we end up stalling forever on a
transfer that will never complete.

It appears that `XCB_SELECTION_REQUEST` has some sort of singleton
semantics, and new requests for the same selection are meant to replace
outstanding older ones. I couldn't find a reference for this, but
empirically this does seem to be the case.

Real (contrived) case where we don't currently do this, and things break:

* run fcitx
* run Slack
* wl-copy < <(base64 /opt/firefox/libxul.so)  # or some other large file
* focus Slack (no need to paste)

fcitx will send in an `XCB_SELECTION_REQUEST`, and we'll start
processing it. Immediately after, Slack sends its own. fcitx hangs for a
long, long time. In the meantime, Slack retries and sends another
selection request. We now have two pending requests from Slack.

Eventually fcitx gives up (or it can be `pkill`'d), and we start
processing the first request Slack gave us (FIFO). Slack (Electron?)
isn't listening on the other end anymore, and this transfer never
completes. The X11 clipboard becomes unusable until Slack is killed.

After this patch, the clipboard is immediately usable again after fcitx
bails. Also added a bunch of debug-level logging that makes diagnosing
this sort of issue easier.

wlroots

Pluggable, composable, unopinionated modules for building a Wayland compositor; or about 50,000 lines of code you were going to write anyway.

  • wlroots provides backends that abstract the underlying display and input hardware, including KMS/DRM, libinput, Wayland, X11, and headless backends, plus any custom backends you choose to write, which can all be created or destroyed at runtime and used in concert with each other.
  • wlroots provides unopinionated, mostly standalone implementations of many Wayland interfaces, both from wayland.xml and various protocol extensions. We also promote the standardization of portable extensions across many compositors.
  • wlroots provides several powerful, standalone, and optional tools that implement components common to many compositors, such as the arrangement of outputs in physical space.
  • wlroots provides an Xwayland abstraction that allows you to have excellent Xwayland support without worrying about writing your own X11 window manager on top of writing your compositor.
  • wlroots provides a renderer abstraction that simple compositors can use to avoid writing GL code directly, but which steps out of the way when your needs demand custom rendering code.

wlroots implements a huge variety of Wayland compositor features and implements them right, so you can focus on the features that make your compositor unique. By using wlroots, you get high performance, excellent hardware compatibility, broad support for many wayland interfaces, and comfortable development tools - or any subset of these features you like, because all of them work independently of one another and freely compose with anything you want to implement yourself.

Check out our wiki to get started with wlroots.

wlroots is developed under the direction of the sway project. A variety of wrapper libraries are available for using it with your favorite programming language.

Building

Install dependencies:

  • meson
  • wayland
  • wayland-protocols
  • EGL
  • GLESv2
  • libdrm
  • GBM
  • libinput
  • xkbcommon
  • udev
