New API:
- gst_gl_context_get_config()
- gst_gl_context_request_config()
A GL context configuration is a GstStructure that has some well-known
names for common values that can also be extended in platform-specific
ways if necessary.
Wrapped OpenGL contexts may be able to retrieve the GL context
configuration depending on the platform. If that information is
available, GstGLContext will attempt to create an context that matches
the shared OpenGL context config unless gst_gl_context_request_config()
has been called.
A new environment variable 'GST_GL_CONFIG' will be read to influence the
configuration chosen. The environment variable will only be used as a
fallback if gst_gl_context_request_config() has not been called.
Part-of: <https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/gstreamer/gst-plugins-base/-/merge_requests/809>
Make a bunch of symbols private that are currently leaked
accidentally because they have a gst_* prefix and are used
internally. We mark those we can't make static with
G_GNUC_INTERNAL so that they get hidden with the autotools
build as well (although we could just pass -fvisibility=hidden
there too).
nvidia drivers return the exact version in glGstString (GL_VERSION)
we request on creation so start with the highest known version and
work our way down.
This commit makes the loading of the GModules threadsafe, and
always first tries to load the symbol for the GL library that
is selected for the current context. Only then it falls back
to looking into the current module (NULL), and only as a last
resort the context specific function (e.g. eglGetProcAddress())
is called.
Also add configure parameters to select the names of the library
modules instead of using the defaults, and let the defaults be
independent of the G_MODULE_SUFFIX.

Intel drivers require the display handles be the same for context
sharing to occur. Also solves some cases of use after free of the
display when integrating with gstreamer-vaapi.
See https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=41736 for the intel bug.
