Improved Support for Linux Windowing Systems

by Sam Spilsbury for XBMC

The purpose of this project will be to create window system backends to deploy XBMC on modern linux windowing systems and provide automated tests such that the code doesn't fall into bitrot for windowing systems which might not be heavily used at the moment. Ideally, the project will allow xbmc to run natively when either: Directly on the linux framebuffer (eg, GBM / KMS), Via the wayland protocol on Weston, Via the Mir protocol on the Mir Compositor.
