[Bug 704807] Simplify windowing logic

[GStreamer (GNOME Bugzilla)]

--- Comment #2 from Philippe Normand <phil at base-art.net> ---
The code is there but is not triggered, I think. At least for the dispmanx/egl
backend.

>From what I can see here, in gstglwindow_dispmanx_egl.c a native window is
created and get_window_handle() returns a non-null result. So in
gstglcontext_egl  and EGLSurface is created for the handle and the other branch
(surfaceless context) is not triggered.

The use-case I have in mind is to use glimagesink::client-draw within WebKit.
For that I don't think I need the gstglwindow_dispmanx to create a native
window because it's handled by WebKit instead.

I'm not sure how it's all supposed to work but shouldn't the native window
support be optional, in the Dispmanx and perhaps Android/EGL cases?
