[feature request] ywayland backend (XWayland equivalent) #85

Description

@Ferdi265

The architecture, project goals, and non-goals laid out in high-level-design.md looks like it would potentially be possible to create a ywayland backend that mimics the interface of Xwayland.

The benefits of this would be that Wayland desktop environments could avoid needing to depend on a legacy Xorg component for X11 application support.

The drawbacks would be maintenance of another backend, since development now mostly focuses on the main yserver DRM backend, and ynest development has mostly stopped.
