Robert Bragg d40cdfa3e1 Moves all GLX code down from Clutter to Cogl
This migrates all the GLX window system code down from the Clutter
backend code into a Cogl winsys. Moving OpenGL window system binding
code down from Clutter into Cogl is the biggest blocker to having Cogl
become a standalone 3D graphics library, so this is an important step in
that direction.

/**
* SECTION:cogl-display
* @short_description: Represents a display pipeline
*
* TODO: We still need to decide if we really need this object or if
* it's enough to just have the CoglSwapChain CoglOnscreenTemplate
* objects.
*
* The basic intention is for this object to let the application
* specify its display preferences before creating a context, and
* there are a few different aspects to this...
*
* Firstly there is the physical display pipeline that is currently
* being used including the digital to analogue conversion hardware
* and the screen the user sees. Although we don't have a plan to
* expose all the advanced features of arbitrary display hardware with
* a Cogl API, some backends may want to expose limited control over
* this hardware via Cogl and simpler features like providing a list
* of modes to choose from in a UI could be nice too.
*
* Another aspect is that the display configuration may be tightly
* related to how onscreen framebuffers should be configured. In fact
* one of the early rationals for this object was to let us handle
* GLX's requirement that framebuffers must be "compatible" with the
* fbconfig associated with the current context meaning we have to
* force the user to describe how they would like to create their
* onscreen windows before we can choose a suitable fbconfig and
* create a GLContext.
*
* TODO: continue this thought process and come to a decision...
