/**
* \brief Base abstract class to derive widgets that use cairo graphic output.
*
* This class is the starting point to derive graphics widgets using cairo.
* It provides explicit in memory double buffering, and scaling.
* In order to build a new widget that uses cairo output the developer should
* use this as base class.
*
* The implementer:
* - must
* - implement draw_widget() to draw in the widget client area \see draw_widget()
* - should
* - define calc_drawing_size() to provide correct size calculation
* - call resize_redraw() to calc size and redraw
* - can
* - define calc_widget_size() to get predefined widget dimensions
* - set the desired scaling mode \see set_scaling_mode()
* - call redraw() to only redraw the widget

/**
* \brief Defines cairo widget scaling modes.
*
* Scaling is the geometric operation that maps draw_widget()'s output
* into client area.
* There are some ways to scale the output to fit in client area.
* The developer does'n need to know how to build the scaling but
* only how it works.
* The defined modes are:
* - scaling_none without any scaling
* - scaling_to_w uses width to calculate scale factor
* - scaling_to_h uses height to calculate scale factor
* - scaling_min uses minimum scale factor from width, height
* - scaling_max uses maximum scale factor from width, height
* - scaling_all scale to stretch into client area
*
* Each mode has advantages and disvantages.
* - scaling_none doesn't do any scaling at all.
* The graphics are rendered as they are drawn.
* - scaling_to_w calc both x and y scaling to fit the client width.
* Probably the draw will exceed the client area height.
* - scaling_to_h calc both x and y scaling to fit the client height.
* Probably the draw will exceed the client area width.
* - scaling_min calc both x and y scaling to enter in the client area.
* The draw will always fit in the window.
* - scaling_max calc both x and y scaling to not enter in the client area.
* The draw will rarely fit in the window.
* - scaling_all calc x and y scaling to fit exactly in the client area.
* The draw will always fit the entire client area.
* NOTE: This scaling mode stretch the drawing and not respect the
* ratio between width and height.
