<description summary="a frame ready for readout">
An interface to capture surfaces in an efficient way.
Overall usage:
1.) client registers with zwlr_screencontent_manager_v1
2.) server sends client info about surfaces via "receive_surface_info"
3.) client subscribes to capture a surface via the "capture" requests
4.) server sends client events via the "zwlr_screencontent_frame" interface
5.) client finishes and informs server via the "frame_destroy" event
6.) client optionally resubscribes via repeating steps 3.) through 5.)

<interface name="zwlr_export_dmabuf_frame_v1" version="1">
<description summary="a frame ready for readout">
This object represents a frame which is ready to have its resources
fetched and used.
The receive callback shall be called first, followed by either the
"dma_object" callback once per object or the "dma_layer" callback,
once per layer. The "dma_plane" callback shall only be called after
the "dma_layer" callback corresponding to the layer the plane belongs
to has been called. Finally, the "ready" event is called to indicate that
all the data has been made available for readout, as well as the time
at which presentation happened at.
The ownership of the frame is passed to the client, who's responsible for
destroying it via the "destroy" event once finished.
The data the API describes has been based off of what
VASurfaceAttribExternalBuffers contains.
All frames are read-only and may not be written into or altered.
</description>
<enum name="frame_flags">
<description summary="frame flags">
Special flags that must be respected by the client.
Transient frames indicate short lifetime frames (such as swapchain
images from external clients). Clients are advised to copy them and do
all processing outside of the "ready" event.
</description>
<entry name="transient" value="1" since="1"/>
</enum>
<event name="frame">
<description summary="main callback">
Main callback supplying the client with information about the frame,
as well as an object to serve as context for destruction. Always called
first before any other events.
The "transform" argument describes the orientation needed to be applied
to correctly orient the buffer. For example, a buffer rotated by 90
degrees will have a value of "3" here, corresponding to the need to
apply a 270 degree transpose to correctly present the buffer.

<description summary="indicates frame is available for reading">
Called as soon as the frame is presented, indicating it is available
for reading.
The timestamp is expressed as tv_sec_hi, tv_sec_lo, tv_nsec triples,
each component being an unsigned 32-bit value. Whole seconds are in
tv_sec which is a 64-bit value combined from tv_sec_hi and tv_sec_lo,
and the additional fractional part in tv_nsec as nanoseconds. Hence,
for valid timestamps tv_nsec must be in [0, 999999999].
The seconds part may have an arbitrary offset at start.

<description summary="indicates the frame is no longer valid">
If the frame is no longer valid after the "frame" event has been called,
this callback will be used to inform the client to scrap the frame.
Source is still valid for as long as the subscription function does not
return NULL.
This may get called if for instance the surface is in the process of
resizing.
