So that we can set it to 'check', and do configure-time discovery of the
dependencies, instead of enabling it explicitly.
This should make it easier to spot build issues on environments like
Continuous, which build Clutter and Cogl for running as part of the
display server infrastructure on Wayland.
Using environment variables only is not convenient for all platforms,
and in some cases it's beneficial to decide the default driver when
building Clutter. Cogl already has a similar configuration switch, and
since Clutter is overriding the default Cogl behaviour, it should offer
the same mechanism.

We enable a bunch of compiler flags to trip common errors during
development. While this is very useful while hacking on Clutter, it
makes the life of people building Clutter on automated build systems
much harder; thus, we should have a configuration option to opt out of
the -Werror business.
GNOME has pretty much standardised on `--disable-Werror`, so we should
crib that configure option.
Like we do for X11, GDK, MacOS, and Windows, the Wayland backend can be
autodetected. We should only fail if the Wayland support was explicitly
asked at configure time, but the dependencies were not satisfied.
Nobody has been compiling Clutter with profiling enabled in a long time.
UProf itself hasn't been updated in 5 years, and it still depends on
deprecated components like dbus-glib, with no port to GDBus in sight.
The profiling code was moderately useful in the past, but these days
it's probably better to profile Cogl than Clutter itself; timing
information can be extracted by the timestamp on each diagnostic message
that is now available by default in the CLUTTER_NOTE macro, and we can
add ad hoc counters where needed.
Add clutter_x11_set_use_stereo_stage() that can be called
before clutter_init() so that the CoglDisplay we create and all
stages created from that CoglDisplay will be created with a
stereo fbconfig.
This is done in clutter-x11 because of the similarity to the
existing clutter_x11_set_use_argb_visual(), and because it's
not clear without other examples whether the need to have
stereo enabled from before clutter_init() is universal or
somethign specific to GLX.
Cogl required version is increased to 1.20, which has the
required API.

Added support for Mir, now clutter can natively draw on MirSurfaces.
This depends on latest cogl git.

We are checking for Cairo ≥ 1.12 and then do an additional check for the
existence of the cairo_surface_set_device_scale() function because there
were no stable releases of Cairo with it. Now that Cairo 1.14 is out, we
can simply bump up the dependency.
