The glimagesink method is slightly less efficient, because we will do a
convertion to another texture, and then render to our GL context, which will
internally submit to the compositor.

With the waylandeglsink, you bind the unconverted (at least weston support few
YUV formats) to an Wayland EGLImage and pass that do the compositor, saving an
extra step.
