In order to report accurate values to users of the RandR property interface,
it's sometimes necessary to ask the driver to update the value (for example
when backlight brightness changes without the server's knowledge, due to hotkey
events or direct sysfs banging).
This patch wires up the core server code with a new xf86CrtcFuncs callback,
get_property, to allow for this.
The new code is available under the RANDR_13_INTERFACE define, which in turn
depends on the RANDR_12_INTERFACE code.
Yes, two changes in one commit. Sorry 'bout that.
The first change ensures that when pending property values have been
changed, a mode set to the current mode will actually do something, rather
than being identified as a no-op. In addition, the driver no longer needs to
manage the migration of pending to current values, that is handled both
within the xf86 mode setting code (to deal with non-RandR changes) as well
as within the RandR extension itself.
The second change eliminates the two-call Create/AttachScreen stuff that was
done in a failed attempt to create RandR resources before the screen
structures were allocated. Merging these back into the Create function is
cleaner.

I think master and server-1.3-branch are more in sync now.
The RandR protocol spec has several requests in support of user-defined
modes, but the implementation was stubbed out inside the X server. Fill out
the DIX portion and start on the xf86 DDX portion. It might be necessary to
add more code to the DDX to insert the user-defined modes into the output
mode list.

Updated code to work in master with recent security API changes.
This patch tracks the protocol changes which introduce more complex
semantics for RandR output properties including pending and valid value
information.
(cherry picked from commit af55c65bea)
xf86 drivers need to create RandR object in the PreInit stage,
before the ScreenRec is allocated. Changing the RandR DIX code
to permit this required the addition of functions that later associate the
objects with the related screen.
An additional change is that modes are now global, and no longer associated
with a specific screen. This change actually makes mode management cleaner
as there is no more per-screen list of modes to deal with.
This changes the RandR 1.2 ABI/API for drivers.
Add function to keep pointer within valid crtc areas.
Finish event delivery and swapping code.
Separate configuration from layout changes to send correct events.
Output options and mode origins both affected driver ABI. memmove mistakes
were causing 'Freeing resource which isn't there' messages.
Prune unused non-user defined modes from available list now.
RandR is getting too big to live in one file; split into one file per object
type (crtc, mode, screen), leaving the rest of the code in randr.c.
Code is slowly approaching the point where it will drop-in as a replacement
for the old 1.0 implementation.
Add XSERV_t, TRANS_SERVER, TRANS_REOPEN to quash warnings.
Add #include <dix-config.h> or <xorg-config.h>, as appropriate, to all
source files in the xserver/xorg tree, predicated on defines of
HAVE_{DIX,XORG}_CONFIG_H. Change all Xfont includes to
<X11/fonts/foo.h>.
change "foo.h" to <X11/foo.h> for core headers, e.g. X.h, Xpoll.h;
change "foo.h", "extensions/foo.h" and "X11/foo.h" to
<X11/extensions/foo.h> for extension headers, e.g. Xv.h;
change "foo.[ch]" to <X11/Xtrans/foo.[ch]> for Xtrans files.
