This new renderer is implemented with the existing wlr_renderer API
(which is known to be sub-optimal for some operations). It's not
used by default, but users can opt-in by setting WLR_RENDERER=vulkan.
The renderer depends on VK_EXT_image_drm_format_modifier and
VK_EXT_physical_device_drm.

Uses the EXT_device_query extension to get the EGL device matching the
requested DRM file descriptor. If the extension is not supported or no device
is found, the EGL device will be retrieved using GBM.
Depends on the EGL_EXT_device_enumeration to get the list of EGL devices.
This EGL extension has been added in [1]. The upsides are:
- We directly get a render node, instead of having to convert the
primary node name to a render node name.
- If EGL_DRM_RENDER_NODE_FILE_EXT returns NULL, that means there is
no render node being used by the driver.

Now that we have our own wl_drm implementation, there's no reason
to provide custom renderer hooks to init a wl_display in the
interface. We can just initialize the wl_display generically,
depending on the renderer capabilities.
Khronos refers to extensions with their namespace as a prefix in
uppercase. Change our naming to align with Khronos conventions.
This also makes grepping easier.
Everything needs to go through the unified wlr_buffer interface
now.
If necessary, there are two ways support for
EGL_WL_bind_wayland_display could be restored by compositors:
- Either by using GBM to convert back EGL Wayland buffers to
DMA-BUFs, then wrap the DMA-BUF into a wlr_buffer.
- Or by wrapping the EGL Wayland buffer into a special wlr_buffer
that doesn't implement any wlr_buffer_impl hook, and special-case
that buffer type in the renderer.
The wlr_egl functions are mostly used internally by the GLES2
renderer. Let's reduce our API surface a bit by hiding them. If
there are good use-cases for one of these, we can always make them
public again.
The functions mutating the current EGL context are not made private
because e.g. Wayfire uses them.
Add wlr_pixman_buffer_get_current_image for wlr_pixman_renderer.
Add wlr_gles2_buffer_get_current_fbo for wlr_gles2_renderer.
Allow get the FBO/pixman_image_t, the compositor can be add some
action for FBO(for eg, attach a depth buffer), or without pixman
render to pixman_image_t(for eg, use QPainter of Qt instead of pixman).
The types of buffers supported by the renderer might depend on the
renderer's instance. For instance, a renderer might only support
DMA-BUFs if the necessary EGL extensions are available.
Pass the wlr_renderer to get_buffer_caps so that the renderer can
perform such checks.

This allows compositors to choose a wlr_buffer to render to. This
is a less awkward interface than having to call bind_buffer() before
and after begin() and end().

This adds a a function to create a wlr_texture from a wlr_buffer.
The main motivation for this is to allow the renderer to create a
single wlr_texture per wlr_buffer. This can avoid needless imports
by re-using existing textures.
