Add documentation to Qt Wayland Compositor
This adds some preliminary documentation for the Qt Wayland Compositor. There are a few classes which remain undocumented. The documentation in some areas may be a bit minimal, but this can be expanded gradually with code examples and more details.

+ \title Qt Wayland Compositor
+ \brief An API to develop display servers supporting the Wayland protocol
+
+ Qt Wayland Compositor is a module consisting of QML and C++ APIs for developing
+ custom display servers based on the \l{http://wayland.freedesktop.org}{Wayland protocol}.
+ The server displays content from client applications that support the Wayland protocol.
+
+ \section1 Environment Variables and Command-line Arguments
+
+ The Qt Wayland Compositor API recognizes some environment variables and command-line arguments
+ that can be used to customize its behavior.
+
+ The environment variables:
+ \list
+ \li QT_WAYLAND_HARDWARE_INTEGRATION Selects which hardware integration plugin to use.
+ \li QT_WAYLAND_CLIENT_BUFFER_INTEGRATION Selects which client buffer integration plugin to use.
+ \li QT_WAYLAND_SERVER_BUFFER_INTEGRATION Selects which server integration plugin to use.
+ \endlist
+
+ The command-line arguments:
+ \list
+ \li --wayland-socket-name Overrides the default socket name used for communicating with clients.
+ \endlist
+
+ \section1 Examples
+
+ Take a look at the \l{Qt Wayland Compositor Examples} for a demonstration on
+ how the APIs can be used to write custom display servers.
+
+ \section1 API Reference
+
+ The Qt Wayland Compositor API can be used from C++ or QML.
