(LP: #2077746)
[ Daniel van Vugt ]
* Add backends-native-Avoid-duplicating-or-losing-KMS-property-.patch
to avoid duplicating or losing colour profile, night light, HDR, or
privacy screen updates (LP: #2025006)
* Update the KMS deadline evasion patch to 2000us instead of 1000us.
Some laptops need higher numbers than 1000us to avoid cursor stutter

Bug description:
[ Impact ]
When recording a session or sharing it, and a custom cursor is used,
then GNOME Shell crashes as soon as the cursor is painted
Upstream fix:
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/-/merge_requests/3978
[ Test case ]
- Enable fractional scaling to something that is not an integer scaling (e.g.
150%, 175%...)
- Start recording or sharing your session
- E.g. Can use https://screenrecorderonline.net/
- Open this page (firefox)
https://gitlab.gnome.org/Teams/Design/settings-mockups/-/commit/ff3c8fbbc1d14
Hover on an image
- Open GIMP and use the color picker in your screen
- The custom cursor should show properly and gnome shell should record it
without crashing
[ Regression potential ]
The cursor is not show or it has the wrong scaling
