Support the wayland zwp_linux_dmabuf_unstable_v1 protocol.
SHM formats and DMABuf formats are exposed differently in caps: the
DMABuf formats are flagged with GST_CAPS_FEATURE_MEMORY_DMABUF.
No buffer pool is proposed for DMABuf buffers, it is the upstream
element responsibility to provide with such buffers.

Previously, in order to change the surface size we had to let the pipeline
redraw it, which at first also involved re-negotiating caps, etc, so a
synchronization with the pipeline was absolutely necessary.
At the moment, we are using wl_viewport, which separates the surface size
from the buffer size and it also allows us to commit a surface resize without
attaching a new buffer, so it is enough to just do:
gst_wayland_video_pause_rendering():
wl_subsurface_set_sync()
gst_video_overlay_set_render_rectangle():
wl_subsurface_set_position()
wl_viewport_set_destination()
wl_surface_damage()
wl_surface_commit()
... commit the parent surface ...
gst_wayland_video_resume_rendering():
wl_subsurface_set_desync()
This is enough to synchronize a surface resize and the pipeline can continue
drawing independently. Now of course, the names pause/resume_rendering are
bad. I will rename them in another commit.
Access is protected only for setting/creating/destroying the display
handle. set_caps() for example is not protected because it cannot be
called before changing state to READY, at which point there will be
a display handle available and which cannot change by any thread at
that point
This is because:
* GST_ELEMENT_WARNING/ERROR do lock the OBJECT_LOCK and we deadlock instantly
* In future commits I want to make use of GstBaseSink functions that also
lock the OBJECT_LOCK inside this code
We are not supposed to redraw until we receive a frame callback and this
is especially useful to avoid allocating too many buffers while the
window is not visible, because the compositor may not call wl_buffer.release
until the window becomes visible (ok, this is a wayland bug, but...).
This is the initial implementation, without the GstVideoOverlay.expose()
method. It only implements using an external (sub)surface and resizing
it with GstWaylandVideo.
Wayland interface could offer two buffers pixels formats: WL_SHM_FORMAT_XRGB8888 and WL_SHM_FORMAT_ARGB8888.
Update waylandsink to support them and check if the format is really available.

- bump wayland version to 0.95.0 which will lead to stable 1.0 release
- avoid memcopy and use propose_allocation for GstBufferPool allocation
- using WaylandBufferPool
- shm: Allocate shm buffers through new wl_shm_pool interface
(the shm buffer allocation is a two step process now: first
allocate a wl_shm_pool, then allocate a buffer from the pool)
