Detailed changes

phoc (0.35.0) experimental; urgency=medium
.
  [ Guido Günther ]
  * build: Allow to build with released wlroots 0.17.0.
    0.17.0-dev is greater than 0.17.0
  * packging: Fix phosh relationship
    phosh 0.34.0 switched to ext-idle-notify
  * packaging: Drop default -Dembed-wlroots=disabled.
    Otherwise we end up with
      -Dembed-wlroots=disabled -Dembed-wlroots=enabled
    which works but looks confusing.
  * packaging: Install NEWS and manpages.
    Doesn't hurt to have them in the development builds too.
  * build: Spell Xwayland like on wayland.fdo
  * build: Make paths a bit simpler to read.
    Avoid join_path and prefer '/'.
  * build: Format meson options consistently
  * tracing: Add support for systemtap probes.
    We don't add any actual static trace points yet.
  * helpers: Add tracing scripts.
    Add example scripts that help tracing the render loop and with
    activation.
  * tracing: Allow to exempt functions from inlining.
    Allow to exempt functions from inlining when tracing is enabled.
  * output: Don't inline frame submission.
    Don't inline frame submission when tracing is enabled
  * packaging: Allow to enable tracing via a build profile
  * d/control: Bump wlroots dependency to 0.17.0 too.
    As we're building with the embeded variant only in CI noone noticed yet.
  * wlroots: Bump to 0.17.1
  * xdg-shell: Set mapped before damaging popup.
    Otherwise the following phoc_view_child_damage_whole() will
    always return early as the view isn't mapped yet.
  * output: Drop support for surface rotation.
    We're not using it, it complicates the code and it was broken
    as we generated rotated boxes (e.g. in render_texture() and
    get_surface_box() but never used them.
  * utils: Remove now unused rotated bounds helpers.
    We do this in a separate commit so they can be brought back
    easily if needed.
  * xdg-shell: Fix popup reposition damage.
    Since 40fa76e34f1b4c33c09c377095e7ff9b4897aa55 we don't damage the whole
    view containing a popup but only the popup itself reducing the damage
    submitted. This worked well until we switched to xdg-shell >= 3 where
    popups can be repositioned leaving traces of the old popup behind.
    This can clearly be seen with GTK's magnifier when selecting text.
    Damage the parent view on reposition to avoid this.
    Closes: https://gitlab.gnome.org/World/Phosh/phoc/-/issues/355
  * view: Take geometry into accout for fullscreen views.
    If we hit the direct scanout path geometry doesn't matter for the
    rendered surface but when the user e.g. opens a popup we hit the
    rendering path and we need to take geometry into account as otherwise the
    surface is shifted towards the bottom right edge.
    This also fixes UI elements not being responsive in fullscreen.
    Closes: https://gitlab.gnome.org/World/Phosh/phoc/-/issues/356

  * output: Detect DPI screens as built-in.
    Some phones (e.g. Galaxy S2) use a DPI screen. Detect them as built-in.
