so - some people have issues if we open devices. why... i don't know,
but add an option to toggle this and be conservative and have it off
by default
@fix
now have a base dpi (75) which is multiplied by the scale factor and
then set in both xft.dpi and xsettings. also a checkbox to turn
setting of this on or off so e can be told to not touch these at all.
this adds a live exposé style set of windows in large mode and 2d
navigation, allows it to stay up so you can bind to a single key or
mouse button to bring up and keep thre unbtil dismissed etc. ... this
requires theme changes and for now these changes have only been added
to the flat theme branch in efl - they will become default in the
future, so dont use this and expect it to work unless you also try the
flat theme default from the flat branch in efl. see
https://phab.enlightenment.org/T6726 for details on that.
this is not complete. it has some TODO items at the top with XXX: but
.. it's good enough now to share.

Summary:
Since enlightenment_remote declares #!/bin/sh, it should stick to
standard bourne shell features.

so e has had a bit of a mess of setuid root tools to do things that
are essential to maintaing a functioning desktop/laptop/tablet/phone
like device like shutting it down or suspending or sqizzling the cpu
governor or messing with the backlight or... you get the idea.
this has been spread around enlightenment_sys and other special
purpose tools. this now unifies it into a single "always there"
enlightenment_system backend setuid root slave process whose job it is
to do all these things via a stdio protocol in an organized way. this
means latency to do something is lower, but at the expense of
consuming ram and a lurking process. unfortunately the lurking will be
needed soon when i add ddc support to make it even vaguely efficient,
so it's a cost i guess we have to pay now. we'll need this in future
as well for some stats collection and more.
still need to port existing code to use this instead of the existing stuff,
and then remove of the old stuff.
new feature - polkit auth agent support partly in core (need to have
the pam setuid root auth tool respond via dbus) and partly a module
(the agent dbus protocol handling and setup as well as auth gui). this
took me a while even with all the docs to work out how polkit works...
it was really fussy and its data structs are an extra pain in the butt
to craft with eldbus, but i managed it. not everything is supported
but the core basics are there and this can be built on.
right now the gui is really basic, but does the job.
this allows for a shorter timeout when on battery vs when on ac for
backlight dimming. this is actually important so when on ac dimming
can interrupt minimally bur when on battery it can be much more
aggressive.
Summary:
The conditional logic is flawed.
If `HAVE_WAYLAND` is true, only then should the path be updated to include wayland-sessions.

we dont need to delay module loading anymore so remove allof this -
priority too shouldn't be necessary as well and was just a workaround.
this remvoes all of that removing some e module api's and module
struct members as well as some global config fields. it also ensures
all config files are up to date as well.
