config: add udev/systemd multi-seat support
Add support for multi-seat-aware input device hotplugging. This implements the multi-seat scheme explained here: http://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/Software/systemd/multiseat This introduces a new X server switch "-seat" which allows configuration of the seat to enumerate hotplugging devices on. If specified the value of this parameter will also be exported as root window property Xorg_Seat. To properly support input hotplugging devices need to be tagged in udev according to the seat they are on. Untagged devices are assumed to be on the default seat "seat0". If no "-seat" parameter is passed only devices on "seat0" are used. This means that the new scheme is perfectly compatible with existing setups which have no tagged input devices. Note that the -seat switch takes a completely generic identifier, and that it has no effect on non-Linux systems. In fact, on other OSes a completely different identifier scheme for seats could be used but still be exposed with the Xorg_Seat and -seat. I tried to follow the coding style of the surrounding code blocks if there was any one could follow. Signed-off-by: Peter Hutterer <peter.hutterer@who-t.net>
