The X resource database is to be explicitly destroyed. This fixes 46 bytes
leak per every window DPI query (which happens a lot on window move/resize
and even on areas resize).
Unfortunately, this does not fully fix the leak since the known leak:

All keyboard events were sending double key events (including modifiers)
when xinput was enabled with gnome (causing much confusion!).
I cant test if XIM works,
but this isn't useful to send double events, so disabling for now.
Unity itself is deprecated, but the API is also supported by KDE and the GNOME Dock extension,
which means that it will be useful for a wide variety of distributions.
To get a progress bar, the system must have a blender.desktop file and libunity installed.
The need for libunity is annoying, but the only alternative would be to integrate a DBus library...

This removes a bunch of code that is no longer needed, and running
"make update" will now automatically download the new libraries.

It has been deprecated since at least macOS 10.9 and fully removed in 10.12.
I am unsure if we should remove it only in 2.8. But you cannot build blender with it supported when using a modern xcode version anyway so I would tend towards just removing it also for 2.79 if that ever happens.

Change the implementation so it no longer takes over the mouse cursor motion
from the OS, instead only move it when warping, similar to Windows and X11.
Probably the reason it was not done this way originally is that you then get
a 500ms delay after warping, but we can use a trick to avoid that and get much
smoother mouse motion than before.
Unfortunately this means disabling the code that ensures the title
bar is properly scaled with DPI, however better to have that as a
cosmetic issue than Blender being unusable with a lot of Intel GPUs.

These comments described the difference between Microsoft & MinGW's struct definition. Now that we dropped MinGW we don't need to go into these details.
The Issue
=======
For a long time now MinGW has been unsupported and unmaintained and at this point,
it looks like something that we should just leave behind and move on.
Why Remove
==========
One of the big motivations for MinGW back in the day is that it was free compared to MSVC which was licensed based.
However, now that this is no longer true we have basically stopped updating the need CMake files.
Along with the CMake files, there are several patches to the extern libs needed to make this work. For example, see:
https://developer.blender.org/diffusion/B/browse/master/extern/carve/patches/mingw_w64.patch
If we wanted to keep MinGW then we would need to make more custom patches to the external libs and
this is not something our platform maintainers are willing to do.
For example, here is the patches needed to build python: https://github.com/Alexpux/MINGW-packages/tree/master/mingw-w64-python3

For Windows 8.1 and X11 (Linux, BSD) now use the DPI specified by the operating
system, which previously only worked on macOS. For Windows this is handled per
monitor, for X11 this is based on Xft.dpi or xrandr --dpi. This should result
in appropriate font and button sizes by default in most cases.
The UI has been simplified to a single UI Scale factor relative to the automatic
DPI, instead of two DPI and Virtual Pixel Size settings. There is forward and
backwards compatibility for existing user preferences.

In Windows, event dispatching code is throwing out the wheel scroll count value.
Despite of how many fast you move the wheel, it only make one-notch scroll event.
This patch convert wheel event to multiple 1-notch wheel events.
This also correct the handling of smooth scroll mouse wheel (which can report smaller than 1-notch wheel movement) by accumulating the small wheel delta values.

We raised the minimum to GL 2.1 in Blender 2.77, and dropped support for older GPUs (pre-2012 Intel mostly). On Windows you get a popup message, but on Mac we simply crashed. Every Mac has a builtin software renderer for GL 2.1 so let's use that when the GPU is not capable!
Run blender --debug-gpu to see version detection & software fallback.

(cherry picked from commit df7be04ca6d4b6dccc998445386228699d72d072)
This commits changes two things:
* It adds more keysyms preferably taken from XLookupKeysym than XLookupString (namely, all numpad ones).
* It falls back to keysyms from XLookupKeysym in other cases, when XLookupString does not produce anything we know of.
Finding the correct balance here is far from easy, but think we are comming rather close to it now...
