The colorspace conversion happens during the upload so the necessary hints
must be provided to ensure that the conversion works correctly.
At least the Mesa Intel driver will create a texture without error but
produces an incorrect result. Use eglQueryDmaBufModifiersEXT() to check if
non-external upload is supported for the given format.
Based on a patch from Carlos Rafael Giani <dv@pseudoterminal.org>.

This patch adds code to gldownload to export the image as a
dmabuf if requested. The element now exposes memory:DMABuf as
a cap feature, and if it is selected, the element exports the
texture to an EGL image and then a dmabuf. It also implements a
fallback to system memory download in case the exportation failed.

Except for gst/gl/gstglfuncs.h
It is up to the client app to include these headers.
It is coherent with the fact that gstreamer-gl.pc does not
require any egl.pc/gles.pc. I.e. it is the responsability
of the app to search these headers within its build setup.
For example gstreamer-vaapi includes explicitly EGL/egl.h
and search for it in its configure.ac.
For example with this patch, if an app includes the headers
gst/gl/egl/gstglcontext_egl.h
gst/gl/egl/gstgldisplay_egl.h
gst/gl/egl/gstglmemoryegl.h
it will *no longer* automatically include EGL/egl.h and GLES2/gl2.h.
Which is good because the app might want to use the gstgl api only
without the need to bother about gl headers.
Also added a test: cd tests/check && make libs/gstglheaders.check
