This commit implements a new API for drag and drop, with a `DataTransfer` type which abstracts over the various clipboard/drag and drop APIs across different platforms. I built this on top of #2429 although admittedly I ended up removing pretty much all of their work while I was reworking the design.
This is being built in order to help support [drag-and-drop work](https://github.com/slint-ui/slint/issues/1967) in Slint's winit backend. As part of that work, I did extensive research on how drag-and-drop and clipboard APIs are implemented across different platforms, and wrote a (still WIP) research document that can be found [here](https://gist.github.com/eira-fransham/06750cf8d25ade08d362a0ca8dfafe06).
The new API is inspired by the browser's [`DataTransfer`](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/DataTransfer) API.
The xfixes implementation is not that reliable and rather simple to
replace, so use x11rb to implement the same functionality.
Fixes#4120.

Unify the values of `MouseButton` and thus remove `Other` variant in
limit possible buttons to 32, which was picked based on platform
capabilities, where 32 is the highest.
For the reference, SDL has identical limit.
The API is integrated into the `WindowEvent::Pointer*` API and is
present in form of `TabletTool` variant on corresponding data entries.
For now implemented for Web, Windows, and with limitations for Wayland.
Fixes#99.

Allow updating IME state atomically to make it easier for platforms
where it's atomic by its nature, like Wayland. The old API is marked
as deprecated and is routed to the new atomic API.
