This thread dispatches navigation events. It is needed to avoid deadlocks
between window backend threads that emit navigation events (e.g. X11/GMainLoop
thread) and consumers of navigation events such as glimagesink, see
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=733661
GstGlWindow_x11 thread is changed to invoke the navigation thread for navigation
dispatching, instead of emiting the event itself. Othe backends beside X11 do
not dispatch navigation events yet, but should use this thread when dispatching
these events in the future.
The navigation thread is currently part of GstGLWindow and not implemented in
separate subclasses / backends. This will be needed in the future.
gst_gl_window_x11_get_surface_dimensions is also changed to use a cached value
of the window's width, height. These values are now retrieved in the X11
thread, function gst_gl_window_x11_handle_event. This change is needed because
otherwise the XGetWindowAttributes gets called from the navigation thread,
leading to xlib aborting due to multithreaded access (if XInitThreads is not
called before, as is the case for gst-launch)
If window is resized, GstStructure pointer values have to be rescaled to
original geometry. A get_surface_dimensions GLWindow class method is added for
this purpose and used in the navigation send_event function.

Write forward declarations in another way to avoid
repeated typedefs "error: redefinition of typedef".
Raised when using i686-apple-darwin11-llvm-gcc-4.2
It seems that C apple compiler does not support
C11 feature.

The window's loop could be still running when _finalize is called
and if we destroy the display connection it will never be closed.
Add _open and _close vfuncs to GstGLWindow so that subclasses can
start up and shutdown at the right time.
- Make GstGLWindow subclassablerather than specified at compile time.
- Add GstGLWindowX11 for x11 windows and two subclasses, GstGLWindowX11GLX
and GstGLWindwX11EGL for GLX and EGL repectively. (win32 and cocoa
ports to come)
- Also cleanup GL library detection in configure.ac
glmixer can be seen as a glfilter except it handles N requested
sink pads.
Each sink pad and the src pad are video/x-raw-gl.
glmixer is responsible for managing different framerates from inputs.
It uses OpenGL context sharing. It means that each input is in its
own OpenGL context shared together and shared with the OpenGL context
of the ouput gl chain.
Also add a glmosaic which is an example of implementation of glmixer.
For now glmosaic is a cube but it will be fixed in the next commits.
For now the glmixer has some weird behaviours in some configurations
but it will be improved in the next commits.
The autotools builds is temporarly broken since those changes
have been made on win32.
The external opengl context must be specify when creating
our OpenGL context (glx) or just after (wgl).
When calling glXCreateContext or wglShareLists, the
external opengl context must not be current.
Then our gl context can be current in the gl thread while
the external gl context is current in an other thread.

In OpenGL 2.x for Embedded System, a lot of basic scene/draw functions
have been removed. It means that everything is made using vertex and
fragment shaders.
I have also added a gstglwindow backend for winCE that uses EGL
(Native Platform Graphics Intercace) (which is a full part of
OpenGL ES specification). It remove the use of wgl/glx functions.
