<description summary="commit timing">
When a compositor latches on to new content updates it will check for
any number of requirements of the available content updates (such as
fences of all buffers being signalled) to consider the update ready.
This protocol provides a method for adding a time constraint to surface
content. This constraint indicates to the compositor that a content
update should be presented as closely as possible to, but not before,
a specified time.
This protocol does not change the Wayland property that content
updates are applied in the order they are received, even when some
content updates contain timestamps and others do not.
To provide timestamps, this global factory interface must be used to
acquire a wp_commit_timing_v1 object for a surface, which may then be
used to provide timestamp information for commits.
Warning! The protocol described in this file is currently in the testing
phase. Backward compatible changes may be added together with the
corresponding interface version bump. Backward incompatible changes can
only be done by creating a new major version of the extension.

Provide a timing constraint for a surface content update.
A set_timestamp request may be made before a wl_surface.commit to
tell the compositor that the content is intended to be presented
as closely as possible to, but not before, the specified time.
The time is in the domain of the compositor's presentation clock.
An invalid_timestamp error will be generated for invalid tv_nsec.
If a timestamp already exists on the surface, a timestamp_exists
error is generated.
Requesting set_timestamp after the commit_timer object's surface is
destroyed will generate a "surface_destroyed" error.
