Jan Arne Petersen 1cc9e08d2f text: Split out cursor_position
Add an extra cursor_position, which also allows to change the anchor
(for slections). Change the index type to int to allow setting it before
the beginning of a commited string.

The cursor should not be moved as a direct repsonse to this event but
atomically on the next commit_string event.

<interface name="text_model" version="1">
<description summary="text model">
A model for text input. Adds support for text input and input methods to
applications. A text_model object is created from a text_model_factory and
corresponds typically to a text entry in an application. Requests are used
to activate/deactivate the model and set information like surrounding and
selected text or the content type. The information about entered text is
sent to the model via the pre-edit and commit events. Using this interface
removes the need for applications to directly process hardware key events
and compose text out of them.

<request name="set_surrounding_text">
<description summary="sets the surrounding text">
Sets the plain surrounding text around the input position. Cursor is the
byte index within the surrounding text. Anchor is the byte index of the
selection anchor within the surrounding text. If there is no selected
text anchor is the same as cursor.
