Pass GstVideoInfoDmaDrm or GstVideoInfo whenever possible, avoiding passing
strange combination of GstVieoFormat + modifier. Even though we don't have any
at the moment, this also allow supporting GstVideoFormat that are not supported
in our DRM integration.

If the input is not a DMABuf, attempt to copy into a DRM Dumb
buffer and import it has a DMABuf. This will offload the
compositor from actually doing this copy (needed to handle SHM)
and may allow the software decoded stream to be rendered to
an HW layer, or even reach through some better accelerated
GL import path.

Similar to and inspired by glimagesink and gtkglsink.
Using the Wayland buffer transform API allows to offload
rotate operations to the Wayland compositor. This can have
several advantages:
- The Wayland compositor may be able to use hardware plane
capabilities to do the rotation.
- In case of pre-rotated content on rotated outputs the
rotations may equal out, potentially allowing the
compositor to use hardware planes even if they don't
support rotate operations.

In preparation for the new element `GstGtkWaylandSink`, move reusable
parts out of `GstWaylandSink` into the already exisiting but very
barebone library.
Notable changes include:
- the `GstWaylandVideo` interface was dropped
- support for `wl-shell` was dropped
- lots of renaming in order to match established naming patterns
- lots of code modernisations, reducing boilerplate
- members were made private wherever possible
