qpa: improve API to support DnDs from other processes
... instead of using a hack of directly accessing QGuiApplication members. The current QPA API was bad for two reasons: 1) It expects platform plugin authors to know about internals of Qt Gui, particularly that QGuiApplication uses QGuiApplication::{mouseButtons,keyboardModifiers} to construct QDragMoveEvent and QDropEvent events. Which results in the second reason why this is bad. 2) Platform plugins should not directly access member variables of QGuiApplication, just to make sure that QDragMoveEvent and QDropEvent events contain correct state. Platform plugins should instead use QWindowSystemInterface to communicate with Qt Gui (which is also the solution here). The solution is to extend QWindowSystemInterface::handle{Drag,Drop} to require mouse/keyboard state. We already do this for some of the other methods, so it is nothing extraordinary. This type of interface is also _required_ to support drag-n-drops from other processes. We can't use QGuiApplication::{mouseButtons,keyboardModifiers} when the drag originates from another process, instead we need to query mouse/keyboard state from the system. This patch fixes drag-n-drops from others processes on XCB platform plugin.
