This adds a new protocol to negotiate server-side rendering of window decorations for xdg-toplevels. This allows compositors that want to draw decorations themselves to send their preference to clients, and clients that prefer server-side decorations to request them.
This is inspired by a protocol from KDE [1] which has been implemented in KDE and Sway and was submitted for consideration in 2017 [2]. This patch provides an updated protocol with those concerns taken into account.

A proof-of-concept of a client and server implementation is available at [1].
