so there was a fair bit of stick-tape and chewing gum in putting the
wl screensaving in e_Screensaver.c ... it thus was very different to
the x stuff. it SHOULd have had e_comp_wl handle idle timeout like the
xserver did and then glue in the same way the x code did to be
conistsent. instead of trying to fix the chewing gum ball there in
e_Screensver.c to find the logic holes ... i made it work like the
code as indicated above. this now makes it work reliably. dim
reliably. lock reliably. it even doesnt exit on ctrl+alt+backspace
once desklock is up now to allow locks to really lock... (dont use
locks during dev then if you need ctl+alt+backspace).
at least now all this dpms/screensavwr/brightness/backlight/lock goop
is consistent between wl and x11 and wl seems reliabkle now (to me).
knock this off as an annoyance fixed.
@fix
so i spent a few days lopening and closing the lids of a few laptops,
plugging and unplugging external screens in, plugging and unplugging
ac power and doing lots of combinations of these. this led to a whole
slew of interrealted issues that were pretty hard to detangle into
just single issues, so this is all one blob.
this fixes:
1. if a lid close gets a monitor unplug from x or e's randr wants to
unplug then this lead to slow unsuspend or lid open times as e was
reconfirguring the screens entireluy on lid open. dont do that. just
keep things as is, unless we have an external display, then reconfigure.
2. we had 2 systems monitoring for a wake. a poller and a systemd
event. this was redundant and lead to interesting things in the debug
output, so clean that up and on systemd systsems use the systemd wake
events
3. some systems dont shut down their screens on lid close, so they
stay open until screensaver timeouts kick in. bad. so also force the
screen to go off on lid close (if the lid screen is the only one we
have).
4. x seems to have a bug where if you force dpms off etc. to turn the
screen on, it still thinks it's of and wont dpms off again after that
until you eother give some input to have the wake event make the dpms
system in x think its now time to go on, or you toggle dpms on and
off, so i found toggling tricks x into thinking the right thing.
this makes some debugging also be consistent with printfs.
all in all i have a pretty well supported laptop doing swimmingly with
e and a not so well designed (acpi dsdt - missing many events like
acpi battery ones, ac power change acpi events, missing logic to power
off a closed screen in firmware or hardware and leaving it to sw...
not this laptop has a tocuh panel and extra fun points awarded since
the touch panel doesnt shut off on lid close... AND it reprots touch
events when it closes as it touches the keys/case... hooray! that has
another work-around local to my system, as efl has no mechanism to do
this).
@fix
this requires we have to force dpms on to reduce power. to avoid
glitches with the pointer staying around in x we need to support
suspending it too so it hides cleanly like the screen dims or undims.
also use the new powersave freeze mode to do this.
note that i've tested this on s3 supporting laptops and non-s3 and it
"works for me". it may require more testing and work. there is more to
power saving than just this as well but for now that's out of scope as
you have to mess with linux device autosuspend timeouts and a bunch
more (wowlan ... blahblah).
i need to find the source of the intermittent wakeups too in e. there
is a long lived timeout (8-ish seconds?) but more specifically e keeps
waking up from fd's and then reading /sys stuff about battery - some
event is causing us to do this... maybe to suspend this or make
battery checking very rare when in freeze mode (or screen off) etc.
so this fixes some glitches as well as supports a new way of sleeping
"alive" when hardware literally doesnt support normal s3 sleep... so
kind of a fix with a feature.
* try to clear up build system for separating out ecore-x
* add #ifdefs for lots of ecore-x stuff
* break out some internal e wl functions for reuse in api
* store wl surface buffers as an inlist
* add protocol-specific client compositor data
** move lots of X client attributes here
* add pixmap type checks to a number of X-specific things, such as grabinput, to block them for non-X clients
* rearrange startup order to work with wayland
* move X screensaver code to e_comp_x
* flag modules still requiring X with -DNEED_X
1. make idle fade timer work at all (dodnt work before)
2. fixes backlight status on e restart
3. fixes setting bl level on start
4. improves the compositor fade in/out effect by ALSO fading backlight
in and out... oh so much smoother now
5. fixes label in ui to be seconds, not minutes.
6. in order to make this all work - it adds a special screensaver
event inside of e that the screensaver subsystem generates based on
the real x one.

Do not abuse the concept of e_*_init(), make them call-once and those
that needed multiple call are renamed to e_*_update(). To make sure
convert them to EINTERN so the symbols are not exported.
Actually I guess too much is exported as EAPI while they should be
EINTERN, but that would require manual investigation, while this patch
was basically created with sed + grep.
