waffle_init - Initialize waffle's per-process global state

WAFFLE_PLATFORM
           This attribute is required. Possible values are:

           WAFFLE_PLATFORM_ANDROID
               [Android] Use EGL on Android.

           WAFFLE_PLATFORM_GBM
               [Linux] Use EGL with GBM, the "Generic Buffer Manager" provided by libgbm. This platform is
               capable of OpenGL rendering without a display manager.

           WAFFLE_PLATFORM_CGL
               [MacOS] Use CGL to create the waffle_config(3) and waffle_context(3). Use Cocoa to create the
               waffle_window(3).

           WAFFLE_PLATFORM_GLX
               [Linux only, MacOS not yet supported]

           WAFFLE_PLATFORM_SURFACELESS_EGL
               [Linux] Use EGL's "surfaceless" platform, EGL_MESA_platform_surfaceless[1].

           WAFFLE_PLATFORM_WAYLAND
               [Linux] Use EGL with the Wayland display server.

           WAFFLE_PLATFORM_WGL
               [Windows] Use WGL on Windows.

           WAFFLE_PLATFORM_X11_EGL
               [Linux] Use EGL with the X11 display server.

waffle_init() initializes the per-process global state of the waffle library with the attributes
       specified in attrib_list. The set of attributes is documented below.  attrib_list consists of a
       zero-terminated sequence of name/value pairs.

       Most waffle functions emit an error if called when waffle is unitialized. The small set of functions that
       can be successfully called before initialization are explicitly documented as such.

       If a call to waffle_init() fails, no global state is initialized and the caller may safely attempt to
       call waffle_init() again. If waffle has already been initialized by a successful call to waffle_init()
       one has to call waffle_teardown() to clear the global state. Otherwise calling waffle_init() again emits
       the error WAFFLE_ERROR_ALREADY_INITIALIZED.

       See waffle_error(3) for the complete list of waffle's error codes.

       Listed are the errors specific to waffle_init().

       WAFFLE_ERROR_ALREADY_INITIALIZED
           Waffle has already been initialized with a successful call to waffle_init().

       WAFFLE_ERROR_BAD_ATTRIBUTE
           An item in attrib_list is unrecognized or has an invalid value, or a required attribute is missing.

       WAFFLE_ERROR_BUILT_WITHOUT_SUPPORT
           Waffle was built without support for the requested attribute.

       Initialize waffle for X11/EGL.

           #include <waffle.h>

           static const int32_t init_attrib_list[] = {
               WAFFLE_PLATFORM, WAFFLE_PLATFORM_X11_EGL,
               0,
           };

           int
           main()
           {
               bool ok = waffle_init(init_attrib_list);
               if (ok)
                   return EXIT_SUCCESS;
               else
                   return EXIT_FAILURE;
           }

       Functions whose return type is bool return true on success and false on failure. Functions whose return
       type is a pointer return NULL on failure. Use waffle_error_get_info(3) to get information about any
       errors.
