POC of smithay-derive

[PolyMeilex]

TODO:
[ ] Support all modules
[ ] Add old macro style as well, not only derive, and remove old definitions
[ ] If we add non-derive style macro, crate should probably be renamed to smithay-macros or smithay-proc
[ ] Use in anvil and smallvil

So, this should also eliminate the need to write/copy long and arcane macro_rules! delegate_* declarations? That will be nice. That is not a highlight of dealing with code in smithay and mithay-client-toolkit.

smithay-macros may be a better name if we add other kinds of proc macros to it later. But it doesn't matter that much.

Yep, the module descriptor is enough to handle both derive macros and our current style of macros if we'd want that (haven't implemented the non-derive variant yet, tho).
