9807d58b01 waylandsink: rework the mechanism for keeping buffers out of the pool until wl_buffer::release
This also removes the GstWlMeta and adds a wrapper class for wl_buffer
which is saved in the GstBuffer qdata instead of being a GstMeta.

The motivation behind this is mainly to allow attaching wl_buffers on
GstBuffers that have not been allocated inside the GstWaylandBufferPool,
so that if for example an upstream element is sending us a buffer
from a different pool, which however does not need to be copied
to a buffer from our pool because it may be a hardware buffer
(hello dmabuf!), we can create a wl_buffer directly from it and first,
attach it on it so that we don't have to re-create a wl_buffer every
time the same GstBuffer arrives and second, force the whole mechanism
for keeping the buffer out of the pool until there is a wl_buffer::release
on that foreign GstBuffer.
