Olivier Fourdan cfcbb075c2 xwayland: Add an option to enable EI portal support
With EI support wired to XTEST, and oeffis being enabled unconditionally
means that Xwayland will always go through the XDG portal for XTEST when
supported.

While this the intended behavior for the general use case of Xwayland
running rootless on a desktop compositor, that breaks when Xwayland is
running on a nested compositor, because the portal is for the entire
session and not limited to the nested Wayland compositor.

Xwayland itself, as a regular Wayland client, has no way to tell that it
is running on a nested compositor.

So to keep backward compatibility with existing (and also common) use
cases such as nested compositors, best is to disable support for the XDG
portal by default, and add a new command line option "-enable-ei-portal"
for the Wayland compositors (who spawn Xwayland rootless) to explicitly
enable support for the input emulation XDG portal in Xwayland.

A Wayland compositor running nested should not use that command line
option with Xwayland.

X Server

The X server accepts requests from client applications to create windows, which are (normally rectangular) "virtual screens" that the client program can draw into.

Windows are then composed on the actual screen by the X server (or by a separate composite manager) as directed by the window manager, which usually communicates with the user via graphical controls such as buttons and draggable titlebars and borders.

For a comprehensive overview of X Server and X Window System, consult the following article: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/X_server
