Platform wise, is not possible, as far as I known, to have Wayland
without kernel's DRM. Though, it's possible to configure
gstreamer-vaapi without DRM but Wayland support, with the enhanced
handling of dmabuf in vaapisink for Wayland, vaapisink will always
fail. Given both issues, configuration with no DRM but Wayland, makes
things more complex, and a simpler approach is to refuse that
configuration.
This patch disables Wayland support if there isn't DRM support. Also,
it disables the display test for Wayland, relying only on DRM and
X11.

Formats map is instantiated at the end of the display
instantiation. The problem is the Wayland display which looks for a
format in a callback, before the map is populated.
If user compiles gstreamer-vaapi with DRM support, the map is
populated with a DRM display at GStreamer plugin registration. But if
not, or a VA driver is not available, the plugin will try with a
Wayland driver, which cause the NULL de-reference.
Nevertheless, in the case of no DRM support, and if the Wayland
display doesn't get a reply from the format conversion is not a
problem.
So the solution is the trivial one, check if the format map is already
populated before de-reference it.

vaapidecode is used in vaapidecodebin and it exposes all the
theoretically supported caps, but that slows down autoplug. With this
autplug is negotiated faster, giving more option to decodebin to select
other decoder.

Instead of defining a sized array for function signature, use it
unsized (a pointer alias, basically). In this way clang warning is
silenced:
warning: ‘fill_profiles’ accessing 64 bytes in a region of size 12 [-Wstringop-overflow=]

... in favour of dep.get_variable('foo', ..) which in some
cases allows for further cleanups in future since we can
extract variables from pkg-config dependencies as well as
internal dependencies using this mechanism.

For monorepo build and ugly/bad, for advanced feature
option API like get_option('xyz').required(..) which
we use in combination with the 'gpl' option.
For rest of modules for consistency (people will likely
use newer features based on the top-level requirement).
