Provide API for accessing and configuring output devices

[Cloudef]

Having information such as adapter names is useful.

Should return unique names for each x output as well (when running on top of x), like X-1, X-2, etc. (currently gives NULL)

[Cloudef]

They already have names None-1, None-2, if you need to check if running under X11, use wlc_get_backend_type()

[ddevault]

I get them as null, not as None.

[Cloudef]

Is the output handle valid?

I have no reason to think it's not. The resolution thing works.

Changed title as this means modesetting as well.

This is a problem for me as well. I am running Arch Linux 4.14.6-1-ARCH with sway 0.15.0. I can access both monitors simultaneously, but the Ultrawide is "scrunched up" into the TTY mode with black bars on both sides. Effectively it is fitting the "correct resolution" into the TTY mode resolution.

Any fixes would be appreciated. I already tried the v86d effort to no avail. (I will try again as I think my vesa config needs work).

I have the following hardware:

Dell Inspiron 7370 2-in-1 Laptop Dell Ultrawide U3417W
