[mutter/wip/carlosg/sync-pointer-in-mutter: 5/6] compositor: Sync pointer after begin/end modal on X11

[Marge Bot <marge-bot src gnome org>]

commit 437f5d1c663e5d5467ad57d287181a7a7dbc978c
Author: Carlos Garnacho <carlosg gnome org>

    compositor: Sync pointer after begin/end modal on X11
    
    Ensure we issue a motion event for the current pointer position,
    as there might be situations where compositor modals get X grabs
    from other clients stacked on top, or missed events in between
    otherwise.
    
    Ensure the Clutter state is still up-to-date afterwards here. This
    replaces some sync_pointer() calls done in GNOME Shell code, always
    done after modality changes.
