GstGLDisplayX11 holds the display connection and name. Each thread requires
it's own X11 Display connection (initialised from name) due to the fact that
we do not want to call XInitThreads(). Doing so would result in segfaults
when integrating with GUI toolkits Gtk, Qt, etc.
The Display connection is for OpenGL platforms where a constant display is
required in order to share contexts (egl). In the case of a wrapped context
(added later), we do not have GstGLWindow to retreive the display from so a
'master' connection is used instead.
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.

rename functions so that other code can create textures in the GL thread
change upload functions to take a GstVideoFrame
default to GLSL for upload conversion
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.
A texture is not destroyed when when we are done with it.
This texture is just added to the texture pool in order to be
re-used. In this case no OpenGL code is executed so we do not need to
request gl thread.
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.
