Requires pop-os/cosmic-comp#2792 and pop-os/cosmic-bg#144.

Currently this shows the cosmic-bg background with a frosted glass effect, which is interesting but probably not what we want. It may also be best to no longer user a subsurface for the UI, now that the main surface isn't used for the background.

If cosmic-bg isn't running or the compositor doesn't support the protocol, the background will simply show the clear color the compositor uses for lock surfaces.

    • If you are using an LLM, and do not fully understand the changes it is making to the code base, do not create a PR.
    • In our experience, AI generated code often results in overly complex code that lacks enough context for a proper fix or feature inclusion. This results in considerably longer code reviews. Due to this, AI authored or partially authored PRs may be closed without comment.
  • I understand these changes in full and will be able to respond to review comments.
  • My change is accurately described in the commit message.
  • My contribution is tested and working as described.
  • I have read the Developer Certificate of Origin and certify my contribution under its conditions.
