Then what do you think about:
- removing the code regarding VADisplay initialisation from the init of the
gl vaapi converter
- fetch it later just before the first conversion through the existing
instance singleton
At this point it should have been already initialized by one of the avcodec
hw plugin.

The goal is to keep the DRM decoder unlinked fron X11/Wayland for headless
mode right ?
Is it a problem if I link the DRM logic with the normal plugin ?
Then we can use DRM in DR mode and the user can just select between DR,
Normal, DRM (headless).
