Subject: [PATCH] protocol: Add a wl_surface request for setting buffer
 transformation

This request allows a client to render its contents according to the
output transform, enabling the compositor to use optimizations such as
overlays, hardware cursors, scan out of a client buffer for
fullscreen surface, etc, even if the output is rotated.

+      <description summary="sets the buffer transformation">
+	This request sets an optional transformation on how the compositor
+	interprets the contents of the buffer attached to the surface. The
+	accepted values for the transform parameter are the values for
+	wl_output.transform.
+
+	Buffer transform is double-buffered state, see wl_surface.commit.
+
+	A newly created surface has its buffer transformation set to normal.
+
+	The purpose of this request is to allow clients to render content
+	according to the output transform, thus permiting the compositor to
+	use certain optimizations even if the display is rotated. Using
+	hardware overlays and scanning out a client buffer for fullscreen
+	surfaces are examples of such optmizations. Those optimizations are
+	highly dependent on the compositor implementation, so the use of this
+	request should be considered on a case-by-case basis.
+
+	Note that if the transform value includes 90 or 270 degree rotation,
+	the width of the buffer will become the surface height and the height
+	of the buffer will become the surface width.
