Ilia Bozhinov 24cf70ae96 backends: implement custom EGL and renderer initialization
Compositors now have more control over how the backend creates its
renderer. Currently all backends create an EGL/GLES2 renderer, so
the necessary attributes for creating the context are passed to a
user-provided callback function. It is responsible for initializing
provided wlr_egl and to return a renderer. On fail, return 0.

Fixes #987
