As of the release of Mir 1.0, libmirclient has been deprecated[1] and
its developers recommend clients using it to switch to Wayland. This
patch removes support for libmirclient and instruct users to use the
experimental Wayland backend instead.

This allows the compositor to avoid having to setup and teardown a
SIGBUS signal handler whenever it needs to read from this surface, as it
knows we won’t be able to shrink the file and so doesn’t have to protect
against that.
This codepath will only be used on Linux ≥ 3.17 with glibc ≥ 2.27, and
possibly other kernels and libc. The former code will continue to be
used as a fallback, either if memfd_create() fails or if it isn’t
available.
Look, a can of worms! I wonder what's inside.
This adds the first platform specific window hint, transforming
a compile-time option to a run-time per-window one.
Cleanup of 8bdb105897.
Add build macro to configuration header and documentation. Add
corresponding CMake option. Add change log entry and credit. Add
loader static library to link dependencies and add detection to
FindVulkan.cmake.
Removed compile-time selection of GLX entry point retrieval mechanism.
Made dlopen a required dependency.
This is a stopgap solution until we start requiring GLX 1.4.
This patch introduces a new backend that enables GLFW applications to
run on Wayland. For now, only output is supported (windowed and
fullscreen). Pointer cursor management, input devices, clipboard etc are
not supported yet.
There are some concepts that can not be supported, more specifically
glfwSetWindowPos, glfwGetWindowPos and glfwSetCursorPos, as they are not
supported by Wayland.
This patch also changes the time and joystick implementations used by the
X11 backend to be shared between the Wayland backend and the X11 backend.
