The Wayland sub-surfaces API is used to embed the video into an application
window.
See Appendix A. Wayland Protocol Specification as the following.
"""
The aim of sub-surfaces is to offload some of the compositing work
within a window from clients to the compositor. A prime example is
a video player with decorations and video in separate wl_surface
objects.
This should allow the compositor to pass YUV video buffer processing to
dedicated overlay hardware when possible.

[wl_shell] is officially [deprecated], so provide support for the
XDG-shell protocol should be provided by all desktop-like compositors.
(In case they don't, we can of course fall back to wl_shell).
Note that the XML file is directly provided by the `wayland-protocols`
dependency and generates the protocol marshalling code.

This patch is to change the inheritance of GstVaapiDisplay to GstObject,
instead of GstVaapiMiniObject. In this way we can use all the available
infrastructure for GObject/GstObject such as GstTracer, GIR, etc.
In addition, a new debug category for GstVaapiDisplay is created to make it
easier to trace debug messages. It is named "vaapidisplay" and it transverse
all the VA display backends (DRM, GLX, EGL, Wayland, ...)
This patch is a step forward to expose GstVaapiDisplay for users in a future
library.

Make gst_vaapi_display_get_display_type() return the actual VA display
type. Conversely, add a gst_vaapi_display_get_class_type() function to
return the type of the GstVaapiDisplay instance. The former is used to
identify the display server onto which the application is running, and
the latter to identify the original object class.
This patch updates to relect the 1.0 version of the protocol. The main
changes are the switch to wl_registry for global object notifications
and the way that the event queue and file descriptor is processed.
