Porting starts for Anvilock to C++ on the "unstable" branch.
Removed Smart pointers for Wayland objects and other members, will introduce them later as the porting goes smoother
Anvilock from this commit on shall follow this: HEADERS -> Forward decl, namespaces, structs and prototypes only SOURCE FILES -> HEADER's implementations
Merged
Now EGL is initialized and works just like Anvilock's C version on main branch.
Coding practice from now on dictates the use of ifndef and define directives instead of just using pragma once for headers.
…debase This commit is a step towards a more type safe codebase. All errors (including conversions, double promotion, etc.) are treated as errors.
This is a very naive way of doing it, in the future ideally this should be async to avoid blocking time texture rendering.
…g of widgets Goal for this is to a more structured way of maintaining widgets at compile time only.
For better directory naming heuristics + makes life easier for a global build in the future

Current codebase for Anvilock is written in C and although it was written with good intention of making it modular and robust, it's lifetime practically didn't seem sustainable enough especially considering that I am bad at writing good and safe C code.
The branch
unstableis meant for the complete rewrite and porting of Anvilock in modern C++ (>= C++20). The main aim aside from the advantages of C++ is to make it more maintainable and have a more modular project that eventually is capable of:The port of Anvilock to C++ currently for this draft should aim to do the following:
