Removes the use of NSOpenGL* variety and functions. Any Cocoa
specific functions that took/returned a NSOpenGL* object now
take/return the CGL equivalents.
The hack causes deadlocks and other interesting problems and it really
can only be fixed properly inside GLib. We will include a patch for
GLib in our builds for now that handles this, and hopefully at some
point GLib will also merge a proper solution.
A proper solution would first require to refactor the polling in
GMainContext to only provide a single fd, e.g. via epoll/kqueue
or a thread like the one added by our patch. Then this single
fd could be retrieved from the GMainContext and directly integrated
into a NSRunLoop.

Until gcc and GNUStep properly support Objective-C blocks and other
"new" features of Objective-C we can't properly support them without
making the code much more ugly.

This is only for non-Cocoa apps but previously caused a 2 second
waiting during startup for Cocoa apps. This is unacceptable.
Instead we now check a bit more extensive if something actually
runs on the GLib default main context, and if not don't even
bother waiting for something to happen from there.
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.
