Note, there are ABI breaks in mirserver, but the symbols.map is structured as it is compatible

Allow servers to dynamically update input configuration. There's a very simple "mir_demo_server.input" addition to `mir_demo_server` to exercise part of this API, but that is not intended prototype.

closes #3573.

Drive-by fix

Fixes: #3581

…d of existing globals (#3586) In particular, `WindowWlSurfaceRole::output_global_created()` uses the notification to register as an observer on the global. Without this, it cannot track configuration changes

…#3585) In my [previous fix](#3430) for #3414, I accidentally disabled sending `wl_surface.enter` events for surfaces on outputs enabled at runtime. This PR resolves that issue while still addressing #3414.

Surfaces need to track scale changes on outputs they appear on Fixes: #3552 (Reviewers note: this depends on #3586)
