vaapi and x-forwarding

[He Junyan]

Vaapi element inside use gst_vaapi_create_display() to create the
VADisplay. It will try wayland, x11, drm one by one. In your case, the
x11 way return success and so choose. But later, when vaInitialize, the
it fails to init because no DRI2 extersion support. 

The best way is disabling the X11 support in build. And because you do
not need to use vaapisink, it is OK.
