For those using context from the application which
would be the embedded video case, if the frame callback
is entering at the same time as window is finalizing,
a wayland proxy object would be destroyed twice, leading
the refcout less than zero in the second time, it can
throw an abort() in wayland.
For those top window case, which as a directly connection
to the compositor, they can stop the message queue then
the frame callback won't happen at the same time as the
window is finalizing. It doesn't think it would bother
them about this.

With latest XDG shell, we need to fait for the surface to have been
configured before we can attach a buffer to it. This is being enforce by
Weston with an error.
Fixes#933
When waylandsink is used on some other thread than the main wayland
client thread, the waylandsink implementation is vulnerable to a
condition related to registry and surface events which handled in
seperated event queue.
The race that may happen is that after a proxy is created, but
before the queue is set, events meant to be emitted via the yet to
set queue may already have been queued on the wrong queue.
Wayland 1.11 introduced new API that allows creating a proxy
wrappper which can help to avoid this race condition.
This is specific to when the waylandsink is not being embedded. In
this patch we pass the render lock to the window so it can safely
call gst_wl_window_set_render_rectangle() with the new size.

When we don't have a viewporter (scaling support), we can't use the
1x1 scaleup image trick. Instead, we need to allocate a buffer with
the same size as the area that need to have black background.
The main reason behind this is that when the video caps change and the video
subsurface needs to resize and change position, the wl_subsurface.set_position
call needs a commit in its parent in order to take effect. Previously,
the parent was the application's surface, over which there is no control.
Now, the parent is inside the sink, so we can commit it and change size smoothly.
As a side effect, this also allows the sink to draw its black borders on
its own, without the need for the application to do that. And another side
effect is that this can now allow resizing the sink when it is in top-level
mode and have it respect the aspect ratio.
* own_surface is not needed anymore
* gst_wl_window_from_surface is not used externally anymore
* many initializations to 0 are not needed (GObject does them)
This means that the given surface in set_window_handle can now be
the window's top-level surface on top of which waylandsink creates
its own subsurface for rendering the video.
This has many advantages:
* We can maintain aspect ratio by overlaying the subsurface in
the center of the given area and fill the parent surface's area
black in case we need to draw borders (instead of adding another
subsurface inside the subsurface given from the application,
so, less subsurfaces)
* We can more easily support toolkits without subsurfaces (see gtk)
* We can get properly use gst_video_overlay_set_render_rectangle
as our api to set the video area size from the application and
therefore remove gst_wayland_video_set_surface_size.
This is the initial implementation, without the GstVideoOverlay.expose()
method. It only implements using an external (sub)surface and resizing
it with GstWaylandVideo.
