It's only used for logging, and further creation of log contexts can use the parenting feature instead, so there is no need to store it.
This adds clipboard backend names to backend-specific logs, e.g. clipboard/vo.
This adds a "native" Wayland clipboard backend based on the wlr-data-control-unstable-v1/ext-data-control-v1 protocol. This backend overcomes the limitation of the VO (Wayland core protocol) backend, and does not require the presence of the VO window to receive clipboard updates. This backend also supports primary selection if supported by the compositor. The backend runs in a separate thread, so clipboard reading does not stall the player like the VO backend.
This property contains the text in the primary selection.
Some platforms like Wayland may have support for multiple backends, so add this function to make it possible to determine the current active backend.
Useful to know which clipboard backend is active.
This backend does not require the window focus quirk handling, and also supports primary selection.

This should probably behave like c9412b4 for consistency with the vo backend. |

This backend also supports primary selection if supported by the compositor. The
clipboard/text-primaryproperty is added for primary selection text.Also add
current-clipboard-backendproperty to make the current backend detectable, and update console.lua to use the new backend if available.
