GST_GL_WINDOW is used for window system specific choices.
An EGLDisplay can be created from window systems with egl support by using
eglGetDisplay().

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.

Previously, we used the width to determine the amount of data to be
copied using pbos. This, makes it allocate enough data for the
the strides as well.
Most of our 2D filters use the same simple vertex shader.
Also define the default fragment shader as the identity.
Avoid duplicating the same vertex and fragment shader text.
This should fix QoS problems, where basesink believed it was rendering with
20FPS but actually we were just queueing up X11 Expose events and only once
in a while something was rendered.
I was lucky that:
e1 = vc_dispmanx_element_add ()
eglCreateWindowSurface (e1)
vc_dispmanx_element_remove (e1)
e2 = vc_dispmanx_element_add ()
resulted in having e2 equal to e1. And also having the egl surface
that does not allocate its buffers before the first draw.
It avoids to draw to an invalid buffer.
Withtout this the default frame buffer is undefined:
glBindFramebuffer (GL_FRAMEBUFFER, 0)
Visually you could see some white frames at the beginning
when lunching videotestsrc ! glimagesink
With OpenGL Profiler from XCode you could see some
GL_INVALID_FRAMEBUFFER_OPERATION for the first frames
"(NSApplication *)sharedApplication This method also makes a connection
to the window server and completes other initialization"
The implicit thing which is not mentioned is that it required
to be called in the main thread.
Fix a regression introduces by 82b7c915bb
When using with gst-launch, it was not possible to click on the close
cross of the window anymore which is a bit anoying and also because
it's was possible before.
Prior to this commit the GstGLContextCocoaClass was initialized
in the main thread because gst_gl_context_new was called in the
state change function from going from ready to paused.
From this commit this call is done from the streaming thread.
So that the call to [NSApplication sharedApplication];
was not done in the main thread anymore.
We now ensure that by assuming there is a GMainLoop running.
It's for debugging purpose so that's ok to do that. Also
note we already do this assumtion to run app itereations.
The regression had no consequence on the cocoa/videooverlay example
(that should be moved from gst-plugins-gl to -bad) because the
application is responsible for that necessary call.
