Draft: Add GDK::Context container class
What does this merge request do and why?
This commit adds GDK::Context
class which should be passed to other objects as
collaborator. It phases out global state like GDK.root
or GDK.config
.
During the transition period the use of GDK::Context.current
is
necessary to account for hidden dependencies in GDK::Output
(via
GDK::Telemetry
).
Contributes to #2125 (closed).
Draft?
-
Add specs for GDK::Context
-
Discuss the current (heh) and future approach in #2125 (comment 1973451929)
