Philipp Zabel ebc3a22b09 backend-pipewire: add PipeWire backend
Add a separate PipeWire backend based on the PipeWire plugin. The backend
requires PipeWire 0.3.x.

The PipeWire backend can be used as a standalone-backend backend for streaming
and composing Wayland clients to PipeWire.

The backend supports the on-demand creation of heads via the
weston_pipewire_output_api_v1. It also supports per-output pixel format
configuration via a gbm-format option.

Multiple PipeWire outputs can be created by setting the num-outputs option in
the [pipewire] section.

Daniel Stone 75b3ecfcc3 frontend: Add common --renderer=foo argument
Rather than reinventing --use-pixman and --use-gl throughout each
backend, just have a common --renderer=foo argument which can be used to
explicitly specify the renderer.

The old arguments are still handled for backwards compatibility.

Convert our backend type to an enum early, and use it in place of a
string.
