- Make Texture a parent GObject class and move the vtable funcs as vfuncs
instead of an interface as we would like to have dispose free the TextureLoader.
- Make the various texture sub-types inherit from it.
- Make all the sub-types constructors return a CoglTexture instead of their respective
specific type. As most of the times, the used functions accept a CoglTexture,
like all the GTK widgets constructors returning GtkWidget.
- Fix up the basics of gi-docgen for all these types.
- Remove CoglPrimitiveTexture as it is useless: It is just a texture underhood.
- Remove CoglMetaTexture: for the exact same reason as above.
- Switch various memory management functions to use g_ variant instead of the cogl_ one
Note we would still want to get rid of the _cogl_texture_init which is something
for the next commit

While it's not very relevant now, as we would rarely create it anyway
since the buffer nor texture never changes for a surface, it will be in
the future, as the actor state (including its content,
MetaShapedTexture) will be synchronized by the MetaWaylandActorSurface
at a later point in time, and not by MetaWaylandSurface, at state
application time.

One of the current limitations of EGLStreams is that there's no way to
resize a surface consumer without re-creating the entire stream.
Therefore, while resizing, clients will send wl_surface::attach requests
so the compositor can re-create its endpoint of the stream, but no
buffer will be available actually. If we proceed with the rest of the
attach operation we'll be presenting an empty buffer.
In order to fix this, a separate wl_eglstream_controller protocol has
been introduced that clients can use to request a stream re-creation
without overloading wl_surface::attach for that purpose.
This change adds the required logic to create the corresponding
wl_eglstream_controller global interface that clients can bind to.
Whenever a client requests a stream to be created, we just need to
create and realize the new EGLStream buffer. The same buffer resource
will be given at a later time to wl_surface::attach, whenever new
content is made available by the application, so we can proceed to
acquire the stream buffer and update the surface state.

This commit adds for a new type of buffer being attached to a Wayland
surface: buffers from an EGLStream. These buffers behave very
differently from regular Wayland buffers; instead of each buffer
reperesenting an actual frame, the same buffer is attached over and
over again, and EGL API is used to switch the content of the OpenGL
texture associated with the buffer attached. It more or less
side-tracks the Wayland buffer handling.
It is implemented by creating a MetaWaylandEglStream object, dealing
with the EGLStream state. The lifetime of the MetaWaylandEglStream is
tied to the texture object (CoglTexture), which is referenced-counted
and owned by both the actors and the MetaWaylandBuffer.
When the buffer is reattached and committed, the EGLStream is triggered
to switch the content of the associated texture to the new content.
This means that one cannot keep old texture content around without
copying, so any feature relying on that will effectively be broken.
