Add clickable menu

[Qingwu-Li]

Hello fellow geeks,
I tring to implemented a built-in clickable menu feature,
Tested with wayland,

hello. I like your idea and I also wanted to implement the buttons.

I tried your branch and noticed some problems with the text alignment

I think the best way would be to either specify a maximum amount of buttons allowed (then dmenu is used for extra action) or to wrap the buttons to a newline. squeezing all actions in a single line is impossible when there are a lot after all

We revised the settings parameter in the built-in menu and added support for a rounded corner menu in the built-in menu two commits ago.

I will try the new changes 👍

Now we add key navigation inside of notification:

• left, right, up and down arrow keys select the button (action)
• enter key executes action
• add “focus“ when selected, the first key is the default focus key

Tested it in Wayland, hope this makes the built-in menu more user-friendly.

sorry for the late reply. I found two compilation errors (one in input.c and one in wl_seat.c). They could be easily solved but you should fix them.

As for the code it mostly works but somehow the text did not line up with the button. I think the scale is not taken into account. On the other hand the input and shape draws correctly

I think splitting the keyword part in a separate pr is better since this one already quite big.

After this change

                        cairo_move_to(c, round(text_x * scale), round(text_y * scale));

It almost works correctly, with a minor offset to the text.

Thank you for your reply. Basically, the drawing and navigation parts are separate, but they share some common changes in input.c. I will update it in the coming days.
