Release announcement with changes:
https://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/wayland-devel/2022-February/042103.html
Upstream has deprecated both weston-launch and fbdev backend, so let's
not delay the inevitable and find replacements.
Fbdev can be replaced by passing --use-pixman to drm backend;
this will bypass the opengl paths and use CPU for rendering.
Apply where GL is too slow or unavailable.
weston-launch can be replaced by starting weston directly, with
a seat management daemon for support. This is provided either
by systemd, or on systemd-less systems, by seatd. The sysvinit
startup scripts and tests have been rewritten accordingly. Bonus
fix: under sysvinit weston now starts under weston user as it should,
and not under root.
