When pasting clipboard content from Godot to other applications,
multiple SelectionRequest events are sent to Godot in order to access
the data. It could take a long time before the data is ready for the
other app because events were processed one by one on the main thread,
especially when Godot is unfocused and runs at low frequency.
With this change, SelectionRequest events are directly handled on the
separate event polling thread to minimize this delay.
This change also replaces clipboard_get() calls in SelectionRequest with
a direct access to internal_clipboard, since in this case we know Godot
is the owner of the clipboard content and it's not necessary to query
the x server for it.
This change makes keyboard inputs more responsive on Linux, especially
when the FPS is lower on slower configurations.
Polling events from the x server is done on a separate thread to avoid a
frame delay with inputs, due to first sending the event to the input
manager with XFilterEvent then processing the new event only on the next
frame.
Calls to Input Manager functions like XSetICFocus, XUnsetICFocus and
XSetICValues use a mutex, because they are polling events internally and
would otherwise interfere with our own thread process for polling events
which can cause a deadlock in some cases.
XUnsetICFocus is called instead of XSetICFocus on FocusOut events,
so the input manager can be properly notified of focus changes.
clipboard_get now uses a blocking call to poll for a specific event type
when waiting for a SelectionNotify event, instead of polling all events
and filtering them afterwards.
Proper implementation for get_window_at_screen_position:
Now getting the topmost last active window when overlapping.
Mouse drag & release events:
They are now propagated through the current focused window, in order to
make it consistent with the engine expectations and the Windows display
server implementation.
Now using override_redirect for menu & tooltip popups to prevent the WM from
interfering with them, so we have more control over focus management
and avoid a delay before they show up.
This was caused by `XSetWMNormalHints` being called multiple times, each time with different values. Calling the method replaces the old data completely, resulting in some of the settings being lost.
Since the method was called 3 times before the window was mapped, this resulted in the position hint being lost and the window always getting opened at a position determined by the WM.
When creating a window, Godot would first register it to the WM(show it) and then set its flags.
This works fine on a floating WM, but on tiling WMs as soon as a window gets registered
the WM immediately acts on the window by scaling it up and treating it as a generic window,
being registered without any special flags.
This commit separates the showing of the window into another function and calls it after the most important flags are set,
making windows with special flags(eg. all popups) work again on tiling WMs.
Fixes#37930
It changed name as part of the DisplayServer and input refactoring
in #37317, with the rationale that input no longer goes through the
main loop, so the previous Input singleton now only does filtering.
But the gains in consistency are quite limited in the renaming, and
it breaks compatibility for all scripts and tutorials that access
the Input singleton via the scripting language. A temporary option
was suggested to keep the scripting singleton named `Input` even if
its type is `InputFilter`, but that adds inconsistency and breaks C#.
