WIP: unstable: add color management protocol
This protocol specifies a way for a client to set the color space and HDR metadata of a surface and to get information about the color spaces and HDR capabilities of outputs.
Signed-off-by: Sebastian Wick sebastian@sebastianwick.net
WIP because there are a few open questions and no HDR support yet.

Protocol development

Eventually everything in this MR will be squashed into a single patch before landing.
