This is good.

This is harmless, it just means that X11 apps don't get hardware
accelerated OpenGL nor is Xwayland itself hardware accelerated.

Good.

This is harmless too, I believe.

This means Weston died, I think.

Yes, this is a chain reaction: Weston died -> Xwayland quit -> X11 apps
disconnected.

I have no idea. Look into the logs/stdout/stderr of Weston, and look if
you have a core dump to analyze.
