Returns TRUE if the active renderer backend can allocate DMA buffers.
This is the case hardware accelerated GBM backends, but FALSE for
surfaceless (i.e. no render node) and EGLDevice (legacy NVIDIA paths).
While software based gbm devices can allocate DMA buffers, we don't want
to allocate them for offscreen rendering, as we really only use these
for inter process transfers, and as buffers allocated for scanout
doesn't use the relevant API, making it return FALSE for these solves
that.

We need to call eglBindAPI() with GLES before we setup the secondary
GPU blit. We've been lucky not really needing this, as it has been
GLES default, which is what the secondary blit uses, in order to not
depend on the default, or if we want to create the secondary blit
objects after initializing cogl, we must make sure to bind the right API
at the right time.
As we need to bind the GLES API when setting up the secondary blit, we
need to make sure that cogl gets the right API bound when that's done,
so Cogl can continue working. For this, add a "bind_api()" method on the
CoglRenderer object, that will know what API is correct to bind.

When the CoglRenderer didn't set the DMA buffer constructor vfunc, we
return NULL. What we didn't do was set the error, meaning the caller
would crash if it tried to look up why DMA buffer construction failed.

This is a winsys-specific API that allows exporting a DMA buffer fd.
The CoglDmaBufHandle structure allows passing the ownership of the
DMA buffer to whoever is using it, so the winsys doesn't need to
manually track it.

At this point only the gl driver is at all aware of the difference
between core and compat contexts. COGL_PRIVATE_FEATURE_GL_FIXED is also
now quite misnamed, since we're using the GLSL pipeline even for pre-GL3
contexts. Remove the private feature and handle the few remaining
differences by checking the driver class inside the gl driver.

There are still environment variables for these controls, but having
them in a config file doesn't really make sense for mutter. Even if it
did we probably don't want to be parsing the same file as some
standalone version of cogl.

Threaded swap wait was added for using together with the Nvidia GLX
driver due to the lack of anything equivalent to the INTEL_swap_event
GLX extension. The purpose was to avoid inhibiting the invocation of
idle callbacks when constantly rendering, as the combination of
throttling on swap-interval 1 and glxSwapBuffers() and the frame clock
source having higher priority than the default idle callback sources
meant they would never be invoked.
This was solved in gbz#779039 by introducing a thread that took care of
the vsync waiting, pushing frame completion events to the main thread
meaning the main thread could go idle while waiting to draw the next
frame instead of blocking on glxSwapBuffers().
As of https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/merge_requests/363, the
main thread will instead use prediction to estimate when the next frame
should be drawn. A side effect of this is that even without
INTEL_swap_event, we would not block as much, or at all, on
glxSwapBuffers(), as at the time it is called, we have likely already
hit the vblank, or will hit it soon.
After having introduced the swap waiting thread, it was observed that
the Nvidia driver used a considerable amount of CPU waiting for the
vblank, effectively wasting CPU time. The need to call glFinish() was
also problematic as it would wait for the frame to finish, before
continuing. Due to this, remove the threaded swap wait, and rely only on
the frame clock not scheduling frames too early.

Adds initial GLES2 integration support
This makes it possible to integrate existing GLES2 code with
applications using Cogl as the rendering api.
That's maybe a reasonable thing for a standalone cogl to want, but our
cogl has only one consumer. So if we want additional rendering out of
our cogl layer, it makes more sense to just add that to cogl rather than
support clutter or mutter or the javascript bindings creating their own
GLES contexts.

GList's used in legacy code were free'd using a g_slist_foreach + g_slist_free,
while we can just use g_slist_free_full as per GLib 2.28.
So replace code where we were using this legacy codepath.

This basically reverts commit 54735dec, which tried to avoid the
GLib-defined types in favor the standard C ones. One exception to this
is the bool type, for which the commit introduces a new type CoglBool.
Let's just get rid of this type in favor of having consistency with the
GLib types. Note by the way that neither CoglBool nor gboolean (which
has a size of `int`) are completely compatible with bool (size `char`).

When creating a renderer with a custom winsys (which is always how
mutter uses cogl) make it possible to pass a user data with the winsys.
Still unused.

Because the threaded-swap-wait functionality requires XInitThreads(),
and because it isn't clear that it is a win for all applications,
add a API function to conditionally enable it.
Fix the cogl-crate example not to just have a hard-coded dependency
on libX11.

Move the KMS interaction from cogl into mutter, where most of the other
KMS interaction already takes place. This also removes dead code which
were only excercised when non-mutter callers used the cogl KMS backend.
The cogl KMS API was updated to pass via MetaRendererNative instead of
via the different cogl objects.

In cogl use cogl-config.h and in clutter use clutter-build-config.h. We
can't use clutter-config.h in clutter because its already used and
installed.
