Disable libdecor Wayland requirement which would use an X11 fallback.
While the crash could be investigated, using libdecor at all makes
no sense in background mode.
- Support switching between libdecor and xdg_shell at run-time.
- Require libdecor when using gnome-shell, otherwise use xdg_shell.
- Gnome-shell detection checks for a gtk_shell* interface which
isn't ideal however it's not possible to check server-side-decorations
are supported without first creating a window.
- Unload Wayland libraries when Wayland fails to load.
Show the windowing environment on non MS-Windows/Apple systems,
since X11/WAYLAND are selected startup there was no convenient way
for users to know which back-end was being used.
Include the windowing environment in the About splash & system-info.txt
since it will be useful for handling bug reports.
This commit adds a private API call not intended for general use
as I would like to be able to remove this later and it's only needed
in the specific case of testing if Blender is using WAYLAND or X11
(which maybe be used via XWayland).
Python scripts can already inspect the system to check which windowing
environment used, the API call is mainly useful for troubleshooting.
When the GHOST back-end Blender was built with isn't supported,
Blender would crash on startup without any useful information.
This could happen when building X11 only, then running on Wayland.
Now show a list of the GHOST back-ends that were attempted and exit
with an error code instead of crashing.
With this patch true headless OpenGL rendering is now possible on Linux.
It changes the logic of the WITH_HEADLESS build flag.
The headless backend is now always available with regular builds and
Blender will try to fall back to it if it fails to initialize other
backends while in background mode.
The headless backend only works on Linux as EGL is not used on Mac or Windows.
libepoxy does support windows and mac, so this can perhaps be remedied in the future.

Differential Revision: http://developer.blender.org/D15555
Add intern/wayland_dynload which is used when WITH_GHOST_WAYLAND_DYNLOAD
is enabled (off by default). When enabled, systems without Wayland
installed will fall back to X11.
This allows Blender to dynamically load:
- libwayland-client
- libwayland-cursor
- libwayland-egl
- libdecor-0 (when WITH_GHOST_WAYLAND_LIBDECOR is enabled).
Use a shorter/simpler license convention, stops the header taking so
much space.

While most of the source tree has been included
- `./extern/` was left out.
- `./intern/cycles` & `./intern/atomic` are also excluded because they
use different header conventions.

Ref D14069
Usable with the CMake option 'WITH_GHOST_WAYLAND'
The following functionality is working:
- Building with X11 and Wayland at the same time,
wayland is used when available.
- Keyboard, pointer handling.
- Cursor handling.
- Dedicated off-screen windows.
- Drag & drop.
- Copy & paste.
- Pointer grabbing.
See D6567 for further details.
BF-admins agree to remove header information that isn't useful,
to reduce noise.
- BEGIN/END license blocks
Developers should add non license comments as separate comment blocks.
No need for separator text.
- Contributors
This is often invalid, outdated or misleading
especially when splitting files.
It's more useful to git-blame to find out who has developed the code.
See P901 for script to perform these edits.
- use char rather then STR_String for the event printer.
- added option to build WITH_GHOST_DEBUG for cmake
- renamed WITH_SDL_GHOST --> WITH_GHOST_SDL
This opens up the option for blender to be more easily ported to other devices, OS's.
TODO
- continuous grab.
- text glitch with multiple windows (was a bug in X11 too for a while, will check on this)
GHOST*Cocoa.mm & .h files creation
First Cocoa version of GHOST_SystemCocoa.mm
CMake files update to allow optional (WITH_COCOA option) Cocoa version build - disabled by default
SCons files are not updated to allow Cocoa build (the ghost .mm files)
