wayfire: init at 0.3.1

[Thra11]

Motivation for this change

Package the wayfire 3D wayland compositor, including its config library and shell (panel, background). Seems to work fairly well using the default/example config files.

Things done

• Tested using sandboxing (nix.useSandbox on NixOS, or option sandbox in nix.conf on non-NixOS linux)
• Built on platform(s)
  • NixOS
  • macOS
  • other Linux distributions
• Tested via one or more NixOS test(s) if existing and applicable for the change (look inside nixos/tests)
• Tested compilation of all pkgs that depend on this change using nix-shell -p nixpkgs-review --run "nixpkgs-review wip"
• Tested execution of all binary files (usually in ./result/bin/)
• Determined the impact on package closure size (by running nix path-info -S before and after)
• Ensured that relevant documentation is up to date
• Fits CONTRIBUTING.md.

Hi, just a quick heads up: The build will fail with wlroots 0.9.1:

However there is already a new upstream release (0.3.1) that should address this: "Compatible with wlroots 0.9.X, wf-shell 0.3 and wf-config 0.3.".

The easiest solution would probably be to update this PR to 0.3.1 and merge it after #76787 (i.e. after the final release of Sway 1.3).

[primeos]

Just a quick FYI (in case this PR is still active): #76787 is merged now ;)

[Thra11]

Looks like wayfire 0.3.1 requires wlroots <0.10.0, so that's a no-go, now that wlroots in nixpkgs master has jumped to 0.10.0.

I'll probably just leave this PR to languish for now.

[primeos]

@Thra11 in that case you could also do one of the following two things if you want:

1. Patch meson.build to allow e.g. wlroots <0.11.0 (should most likely be fine with 0.10.x if it doesn't use the RDP backend, which is the only major/breaking change - if it still compiles it should be fine)
2. Override wlroots to use 0.9.1 instead of 0.10.0

I also hope that I didn't unnecessarily delay this PR with my first comment, this was only intended as a suggestion (i.e. open for discussion) and I wasn't sure if this PR was still active (+ I though the final release would be one week earlier).

(Edit: And of course I'm happy to help if you need help with the wlroots part.)

[wucke13]

What's the ticket here? Current release of wayfire should be compatible with the current version of wlroots in nixpkgs.

Edit: I started picking up the work from @Thra11 . Feel free to pull from https://github.com/wucke13/nixpkgs/tree/wayfire, I hope to add expressions for the other, new wayfire components in the following days. I'd love to see this in-tree soon
