This PR implements the
wp_content_type_v1protocol and refines the logic for cursor throttling on fullscreen windows with VRR enabled.Currently, the compositor throttles cursor updates to ~24Hz for any fullscreen window to prevent VRR brightness flicker. While this is necessary for games and video playback, it creates a terrible user experience for native productivity applications (e.g., terminal emulators). On a 144Hz screen, a fullscreen terminal feeling locked to 24fps is jarring and unresponsive.
