This means we cannot access [view layer] or view.bounds from the OpenGL
thread. This also means that we need to call the main thread when
setting the window handle. However, we cannot perform that
synchronously as that may deadlock with the application performing the
set_window_handle() call.
We need to defer the actual update and run it asynchronously and wait
for the window handle update internally at each point it is needed.

All code interacting with Objective-C objects should now use Automated
Reference Counting rather than manual memory management or Garbage
Collection. Because ARC prohibits C-structs from containing
references to Objective-C objects, all such fields are now typed
'gpointer'. Setting and gettings Objective-C fields on such a
struct now uses explicit __bridge_* calls to tell ARC about
object lifetimes.

Execute GL calls without marshalling them to the context thread. In the cocoa
and eagl backends calling gst_gl_context_activate is cheap and therefore calling
it on the current thread and serializing GL calls with a per-context lock is
more efficient (faster and has less overhead) than marshalling everything to the
context thread.
This optimization cuts a large overhead in g_poll (continuously waking up the
context thread) and in g_mutex_*/g_cond_* (waiting for results from the context
thread).
- 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.

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.
