libinput, drm, wayland, x11, headless, noop)
* *WLR_NO_HARDWARE_CURSORS*: set to 1 to use software cursors instead of
hardware cursors
* *WLR_SESSION*: specifies the `wlr_session` to be used (available sessions:
libseat, direct)
* *WLR_DIRECT_TTY*: specifies the tty to be used (instead of using /dev/tty)

* *DISPLAY*: if set probe X11 backend in `wlr_backend_autocreate`
* *WAYLAND_DISPLAY*, *WAYLAND_SOCKET*: if set probe Wayland backend in
`wlr_backend_autocreate`
* *XCURSOR_PATH*: directory where xcursors are located
* *XDG_SESSION_ID*: if set, session ID used by the logind session
