w0prup 3449f0def2 Wayland: trackpad pinch zooms the view (#7744) (#8023)
* claim: #7744

* Vendor winit 0.30.13 with Wayland touchpad pinch and rotation gestures

The 0.30 Wayland backend never binds zwp_pointer_gestures_v1, and
WindowEvent::PinchGesture / WindowEvent::RotationGesture only come from the
macOS and iOS backends, so a trackpad pinch produces no input at all on
Linux and Wayland (two-finger scroll still works, since X11/XWayland
reports it as a wheel). egui-winit already maps the events to
egui::Event::Zoom and navigation::handle already zooms the camera from
that, so the Wayland backend was the only missing piece.

Upstream the gesture support is part of winit 0.31 (rust-windowing/winit#4338),
which eframe 0.36 cannot use while it still requires winit 0.30, and the
0.30 backport rust-windowing/winit#4778 was closed unmerged. So ship the
same fix locally, upstream-style-applied and stripped of example and test
targets, with its unit tests for the gesture state machine kept under
cargo test -p winit --lib -- pointer_gesture:

- src/platform_impl/linux/wayland/seat/pointer/pointer_gesture.rs: bind
  the global (versions 1..=3), one pinch gesture object per pointer,
  destroyed before the pointer is released; begin/update/end become the
  two events for the window the gesture began over. Two fingers only;
  the protocol's scale is relative to the gesture's beginning, so the
  event carries the change since the previous update; rotation is
  negated to winit's counterclockwise degrees; a non-finite scale is
  dropped, and so are updates of a gesture whose begin we never saw.
- seat state wiring: bind the global, track and drop the gesture object.
- wayland-protocols' unstable feature, platform notes on both events,
  changelog, patch-section entry in Cargo.toml, vendor/README, and
  Linux/Wayland notes in the troubleshooting guide and the UI tour.

Retire this vendoring once an eframe release consumes winit 0.31 or
later; the cleaned branch is kept as
https://github.com/purp0w/winit/tree/wayland-pinch-gestures.

* ci: retrigger after flaky occurrence-cache test
