Robert Bragg 54735dec84 Switch use of primitive glib types to c99 equivalents
The coding style has for a long time said to avoid using redundant glib
data types such as gint or gchar etc because we feel that they make the
code look unnecessarily foreign to developers coming from outside of the
Gnome developer community.

Note: When we tried to find the historical rationale for the types we
just found that they were apparently only added for consistent syntax
highlighting which didn't seem that compelling.

Up until now we have been continuing to use some of the platform
specific type such as gint{8,16,32,64} and gsize but this patch switches
us over to using the standard c99 equivalents instead so we can further
ensure that our code looks familiar to the widest range of C developers
who might potentially contribute to Cogl.

So instead of using the gint{8,16,32,64} and guint{8,16,32,64} types this
switches all Cogl code to instead use the int{8,16,32,64}_t and
uint{8,16,32,64}_t c99 types instead.

Instead of gsize we now use size_t

For now we are not going to use the c99 _Bool type and instead we have
introduced a new CoglBool type to use instead of gboolean.

* SECTION:cogl-display
* @short_description: Common aspects of a display pipeline
*
* The basic intention for this object is to let the application
* configure common display preferences before creating a context, and
* there are a few different aspects to this...
*
* Firstly there are options directly relating to the physical display
* pipeline that is currently being used including the digital to
* analogue conversion hardware and the screens the user sees.
*
* Another aspect is that display options may constrain or affect how
* onscreen framebuffers should later be configured. The original
* rationale for the display object in fact was to let us handle GLX
* and EGLs requirements that framebuffers must be "compatible" with
* the config associated with the current context meaning we have to
* force the user to describe how they would like to create their
* onscreen windows before we can choose a suitable fbconfig and
* create a GLContext.

*
* <note>Many applications don't need to explicitly use
* cogl_display_new() and can just jump straight to cogl_context_new()

*
* A @display can only be made for a specific choice of renderer which
* is why this takes the @renderer argument.
*
* A common use for explicitly allocating a display object is to
* define a template for allocating onscreen framebuffers which is
* what the @onscreen_template argument is for.
*
* When a display is first allocated via cogl_display_new() it is in a
