Add staging system bell protocol

Jonas Ådahl requested to merge jadahl/wayland-protocols:wip/system-bell into main

This is meant to let applications ring the system bell. It needs to be a Wayland protocol because a system bell is not necessarily audiable; for for example accessibility reasons, it might need be a visual feedback, which may be tied to a specific window. Accessibility features are usually configured globally, and one likely wants identical visual feedback for all system bell ringings, so it doesn't fit as a client side only feature.

This aims to replaced and deprecate the gtk_shell1.system_bell request.

Copyright starts at 2016 because I'm found a draft from back then.
