huge fustercluck commit because there wasn't really a way to separate out the changes. better to just rip it all out at once.
* compositor and window management completely rewritten. this was the goal for E19, but it pretty much required everything existing to be scrapped since it wasn't optimized, streamlined, or sensible. now instead of having the compositor strapped to the window manager like an outboard motor, it's housed more like an automobile engine.
** various comp structs have been merged into other places (eg. E_Comp_Zone is now just part of E_Zone where applicable), leading to a large deduplication of attributes
** awful E_Comp_Win is totally dead, having been replaced with e_comp_object smart objects which work just like normal canvas objects
** protocol-specific window management and compositor functionality is now kept exclusively in backend files
** e_pixmap api provides generic client finding and rendering api
** screen/xinerama screens are now provided directly by compositor on startup and re-set on change
** e_comp_render_update finally replaced with eina_tiler
** wayland compositor no longer creates X windows
** compositor e_layout removed entirely
* e_container is gone. this was made unnecessary in E18, but I kept it to avoid having too much code churn in one release. its sole purpose was to catch some events and handle window stacking, both of which are now just done by the compositor infra
* e_manager is just for screensaver and keybind stuff now, possibly remove later?
* e_border is gone along with a lot of its api. e_client has replaced it, and e_client has been rewritten completely; some parts may be similar, but the design now relies upon having a functional compositor
** window configuration/focus functions are all removed. all windows are now managed solely with evas_object_X functions on the "frame" member of a client, just as any other canvas object can be managed.
*** do NOT set interceptors on a client's comp_object. seriously.
* startup order rewritten: compositor now starts much earlier, other things just use attrs and members of the compositor
* ecore_x_pointer_xy_get usage replaced with ecore_evas_pointer_xy_get
* e_popup is totally gone, existing usage replaced by e_comp_object_util_add where applicable, otherwise just placed normally on the canvas
* deskmirror is (more) broken for now
* illume is totally fucked
* Ecore_X_Window replaced with Ecore_Window in most cases
* edge binding XWindows replaced with regular canvas objects
* some E_Win functionality has changed such that delete callbacks are now correctly called in ALL cases. various dialogs have been updated to not crash as a result
comp files and descriptions:
e_comp.c - overall compositor functions, rendering/update loop, shape cutting
e_comp_x.c - X window management and compositor functionality
e_comp_wl.c - Wayland surface management and compositor functionality
e_comp_canvas.c - general compositor canvas functions and utilities
e_comp_object.c - E_Client->frame member for managing clients as Evas_Objects, utility functions for adding objects to the compositor rendering systems

feature: new compositor
removal: e_border, e_container, e_popup
1. clear out environment as best is possible before executing
anything. especially PATH and IFS are set to minimal base defaults.
also use clearenv() if available and unsetenv()
2. remove gdb method as it's just too dangerous. run it as normal as
the user and if the kernel / distro dny that - then sorry. too bad.
Summary: If cserve2 crashes, enlightenment_start will respawn it again.
Test Plan:
Start E18 (in Xephyr maybe) with E_CSERVE set.
Randomly kill evas_cserve2 and enlightenment, and log out from E.
I need review for this patch as I'm not sure about all the ptrace stuff
lying around.

In a proper systemd user session setup, enlightenment_start will be
gone. That is still not doable today and as I plan to roll more feature
in EFL regarding systemd, we need to prevent enlightenment to believe
it is the process started by systemd.
problem... it runs... mostly.. but is buggy.
svgs -> no load (generic loader issue?)
sometimes ie->data2 is null (why?)
font -> instead of normal bvold font.. i'm seeing an italic bold
font.... eek! :(
cserve2 worked well in smaller tests like elm and expedite.. it's not
having a happy day with e17 :(

here is a patch.
1. free() already null-checks the passed argument, so it is not
necessary to do 'if(x) free(x)'.
2. Moved some '{free(x); x = NULL}' to E_FREE.
3. In e_start_main.c, 'buf' is allocated with the size of the
two arguments + '=', so we don't need to check for lenght;
we should use sprintf().
thanks

NOTE: the new behaviour require a parent process,
here enlightenment_start, to watch over enlightenment.
It does use ptrace to monitor his child and track
what is going on. When a crash happen it ask gdb to
add the backtrace directly into .xsession-errors.
If you use systemd user session, you may want to offload
that work to systemd. You can do so, but don't forget to
pass -nopause to enlightenment when you start it.
WARNING: For all user, you will need to exit your
current session and start a fresh one for this new WBOD
to work at all. Just restarting Enlightenment will not
help you.

it's own utility (as per raster's request/idea). Remove explicit
x_clags in Makefile.am(s) as they are no longer needed.
NB: I added some additional libs to the precache stuffs (even tho it's
not used right now). Also a newer e_main (more optimized).
NB: IF you are brave and want to test this, build evas w/ xcb, build
ecore w/ xcb, then rebuild E. Also, disable building opengl in both
evas & ecore (it's not ready for public consumption when paired w/ xcb).
