    vo_opengl: attempt to improve GLX vs. EGL backend detection

    For the sake of vaapi interop, we want to use EGL, but on the other
    hand, but because driver developers are full of shit, vdpau interop will
    not work on EGL (even if the driver supports EGL). The latter happens
    with both nvidia and AMD Mesa drivers.

    Additionally, EGL vaapi interop support can apparently only detected at
    runtime by actually using it. While hwdec_vaegl.c already does this, it
    would require initializing libva on _every_ system, which will cause
    libav to print an unpreventable bullshit message to the terminal.

    Try to counter these huge loads of bullshit by adding more fucking
    bullshit.
