Sometimes it can happen that the first frame of the active stream
triggers the renegotiation and destroy the frame without copy and with
that starting the fps_limit counter. This triggers an assert in
fps_limit_measure_end. To avoid it, we only engage the fps_limiter after
a frame was copied successfully.
Since we are driving the screencast there are no events on the pipewire loop
calling the on_event callback. We want to import and export (if possible) on
every frame of the wlroots loop, so this event is no longer needed.
Supports "dmenu" chooser type, which is called with a dmenu type list
piped to stdin, "simple" type, which recieves nothing on stdin and
default, which tries the hardcoded choosers.
Choosers are required to return the name of the choosen output as given
by the xdg-output protocol.
Thanks to piater for closing overlooked pipes.
Thanks to ericonr for suggestions regarding fork and pipes.
The goal is to control the rate of capture while in screencast, as it
can represent a performance issue and can cause input lag and the
feeling of having a laggy mouse.
This commit addresses the issue reported in #66.
The code measures the time elapsed to make a single screen capture, and
calculates how much to wait for the next capture to achieve the targeted
frame rate. To delay the capturing of the next frame, the code
introduces timers into the event loop based on the event loop in
https://github.com/emersion/mako
Added a command-line argument and an entry in the config file as well
for the max FPS. The default value is 0, meaning no rate control.
Added code to measure the average FPS every 5 seconds and print it with
DEBUG level.

* Initial session support WIP
Remove libdrm dependency
Remove display from context, add dbus properties
Use random names for shm and pw_stream, init the stream only for new cast instances
Separate cast initialized flag from refcount, cleanup names and comments
* Refactor and stability improvements
Properly report xdp screencast implementation version
