Cogl has now been split out into a standalone project with a separate
repository at git://git.gnome.org/cogl. From now on the Clutter build
will now simply look for a cogl-1.0 pkg-config file to find a suitable
Cogl library to link against at build time.
This gives us a way to clearly track the internal Cogl API that Clutter
depends on. The aim is to split Cogl out from Clutter into a standalone
3D graphics API and eventually we want to get rid of any private
interfaces for Clutter so its useful to have a handle on that task.
Actually it's not as bad as I was expecting though.
eglGetProcAddress() returns non-null function pointers
whether or not they're actually supported by the driver,
since it can be used before any driver gets loaded. So
we have to check if the extensions are advertised first,
which requires having an initialized display, so we split
the display creation code into its own function.
The exception to extension-checking is EGL_MESA_drm_display,
since by definition it's needed before any display is even
created.

Always use pageflipping, but avoid full repaint by copying back dirty
regions from front to back. Additionally, we dealy copying back until
we're ready to paint the new frame, so we can avoid copying areas that
will be repainted anyway.
This is the least amount of copying per frame we can get away with at all
and at the same time we don't have to worry about stalling the GPU on
synchronized blits since we always pageflip.
