1. wayland: use the surface-suspension-v1 protocol …

   Currently, mpv tries very hard to not do wasteful draws when the surface
   is hidden. This is accomplished by abusing vo_wayland_wait_frame and
   just guessing that consecutive timeouts == surface hidden. This works
   but it's pretty ugly (explaining why wl->timeout_count > 1 is an entire
   novel. Go dig up that commit if you're curious). Luckily, we now have
   the ability to just get suspended events from the compositor. Delete the
   entire timeout/hidden surface heuristic and use the surface_suspended
   and surface_resumed events instead. As a side effect of this, this means
   that mpv will always "overdraw" (i.e. render when not needed) if the
   compositor does not implement this protocol. If this bothers you, go bug
   your compositor developers to fix it and/or switch do a better one.
