First release: Building the hearth

This is the first release of smithay, the rusty wayland compositor smithy.

This release brings the very bases necessary to start building a wayland compositor, namely:

• some logic to handle the most fundamental parts of the wayland protocol
• a backend system, allowing you to start you compositor either as a window client using winit (useful for testing) or directly in a TTY (though this last one is still experimental)

Changelog for version 0.1.0 (2017-10-01)

Protocol handling

• Low-level handling routines for several wayland globals:
  • wayland::shm handles wl_shm
  • wayland::compositor handles wl_compositor and wl_subcompositor
  • wayland::shell handles wl_shell and wdg_shell
  • wayland::seat handles wl_seat
  • wayland::output handles wl_output

Backend

• Winit backend (EGL context & input)
• DRM backend
• libinput backend
• glium integration
