For each lib we build export its own API in headers when we're
building it, otherwise import the API from the headers.
This fixes linker warnings on Windows when building with MSVC.
The problem was that we had defined all GST_*_API decorators
unconditionally to GST_EXPORT. This was intentional and only
supposed to be temporary, but caused linker warnings because
we tell the linker that we want to export all symbols even
those from externall DLLs, and when the linker notices that
they were in external DLLS and not present locally it warns.
What we need to do when building each library is: export
the library's own symbols and import all other symbols. To
this end we define e.g. BUILDING_GST_FOO and then we define
the GST_FOO_API decorator either to export or to import
symbols depending on whether BUILDING_GST_FOO is set or not.
That way external users of each library API automatically
get the import.
While we're at it, add new GST_API_EXPORT in config.h and use
that for GST_*_API decorators instead of GST_EXPORT.
The right export define depends on the toolchain and whether
we're using -fvisibility=hidden or not, so it's better to set it
to the right thing directly than hard-coding a compiler whitelist
in the public header.
We put the export define into config.h instead of passing it via the
command line to the compiler because it might contain spaces and brackets
and in the autotools scenario we'd have to pass that through multiple
layers of plumbing and Makefile/shell escaping and we're just not going
to be *that* lucky.
The export define is only used if we're compiling our lib, not by external
users of the lib headers, so it's not a problem to put it into config.h
Also, this means all .c files of libs need to include config.h
to get the export marker defined, so fix up a few that didn't
include config.h.
This commit depends on a common submodule commit that makes gst-glib-gen.mak
add an #include "config.h" to generated enum/marshal .c files for the
autotools build.

We need different export decorators for the different libs.
For now no actual change though, just rename before the release,
and add prelude headers to define the new decorator to GST_EXPORT.
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

Make a bunch of symbols private that are currently leaked
accidentally because they have a gst_* prefix and are used
internally. We mark those we can't make static with
G_GNUC_INTERNAL so that they get hidden with the autotools
build as well (although we could just pass -fvisibility=hidden
there too).
- xcb is supposedly thread-safe!
videotestsrc ! glimagesink now doesn't spuriously result in a
'call XInitThreads()' error however if anybody else is using X11,
then XInitThreads() still needs to be called and multiple glimagesink's
still need XInitThreads().
Everything still takes libX11 handles as they are compatible with the xcb
variants. Unfortunately we cannot move fully over to xcb due to GLX being
entirely based on Xlib. It's also impossible to transform a xcb_connection
to a Display which means we require X11 handles.
When connect to qmlglsrc, x11 event loop will be replace by qt event loop
which will cause the window cannot receive event from xserver, such as resize

Exposing the navigation thread's main context, GSourceFuncs and structs called
key_event and mouse_event is exposing a bit too much of the internals. Let's
just go with two functions to asynchronously send navigation events on the
window with the same API as the synchronous ones.
- glimagesink needs to be able to resize the viewport on aspect ratio
changes resulting from either caps changes or 3d output mode changes.
- Performing a glViewport outside the GstGLWindow::resize callback
will not have the winsys' stack of viewports required to correctly
place the output frame.
Provide a function to request a resize on the next draw event from the
winsys.
Also track size changes inside the base GstGLWindow class rather
than in each subclass.

nvidia drivers return the exact version in glGstString (GL_VERSION)
we request on creation so start with the highest known version and
work our way down.
5697b6b89b causes us to possibly listen
on a toolkit provided Display connection. We thus could eat their
precious winsys events. Only listen if we need to
(!foreign_display or videooverlay).
Depending on the platform, it was only ever implemented to 1) set a
default surface size, 2) resize based on the video frame or 3) nothing.
Instead, provide a set_preferred_size () that elements/applications
can use to request a certain size which may be ignored for
videooverlay/other cases.
