Application that do not require OpenGL need a way to opt-out of
GLX/EGL calls completely. The initialization can be expensive and what
is more, some systems may not have functional GLX at all (some VMs are
known to crash when trying to get FBConfigs for the window).
QApplication already has AA_ForceRasterWidgets, which causes the use
of plain RasterSurface everywhere instead of RasterGLSurface. Combined
with a trivial check in the xcb backend to skip all the Xlib+GLX/EGL
path, the attribute will allow apps to ensure that no GLX/EGL calls
are ever made.
This however implies a change in QWindowContainer: the embedded window
must use the same initialization path as the parent otherwise we will
end up with a BadMatch. QWindowContainer can do this transparently to
the applications, unless the QWindow is already created.
