with different path prefixes to other handlers.

- core: Added support in CogDirectoryFilesHandler to use the URI host part
as a path component, to ignore a certain amount of path components, and
expose the base path as a property.
- core: Removed support for building using WebKitGTK, only the WPE port is
supported now.
- drm: The DRM/KMS platform module is now built by default.

by default when support is detected in the video driver.

height, settable using the COG_PLATFORM_DRM_MODE_MAX environment variable.
- drm: Fixed usage of the specified output device scaling factor.

using Mesa's software rasterization.
- fdo: Try using the largest available output video mode when using the
zwp_fullscreen_shell_v1 protocol.

output and can be used without any graphics hardware e.g. in combination
with Mesa's software rasterization.
- x11: Added new "x11" platform module, which uses an X11 window to paint
rendered web content using XCB and OpenGL.
## What is Cog?
Cog is a suite of utilities for the WPE WebKit port, including a reusable
library (libcogcore), a launcher (named "cog" as well) suitable to be
used as a Web application container and a reusable library, and a tool
to control the launcher remotely (cogctl) using D-Bus.
