Drop support for OpenGL denylist on X11
...which appears to have become even less relevant with db89f53c31af997b9bf422b0e784afba8d62a42e "remove OpenGL VCL backend code". And the vcl/unx/glxtest.cxx machinery that it is based on is (a) known to cause issues like <https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/mesa/mesa/-/issues/3957> "LibreOffice's OpenGL version detection code hangs when running inside a flatpak container with a different mesa version", and (b) is one of the two reasons why an soffice that uses Wayland nevertheless also requires Xwayland during startup (the other reason being oosplash). So getting rid of the glxtest machinery is beneficial. The remaining two potential uses of OpenGL on X11/Wayland are the obscure css.rendering.SpriteCanvas.OGL service implementation (about which db89f53c31af997b9bf422b0e784afba8d62a42e states that "it seems has never been finished or enabled (or so it most probably should be dumped too)") and some slideshow transitions. About the latter, Caolán stated on IRC: "I think we grew this set of stuff to check for dodgy opengl primarily for the case where vcl used opengl for ordinary UI optimizations; but I think that use is gone now so I wonder does it make sense to just drop all of that entirely; for just slide transitions we apparently survived fine without the denylist for ages". (And in any case there is still the WatchdogThread support with OpenGLZone::hardDisable in VCLExceptionSignal_impl, vcl/source/app/svmain.cxx, should any OpenGL code run into problems.) (The removal of gb_LinkTarget_use_glxtest from gb_LinkTarget_use_vclmain, which indirectly brought in gb_LinkTarget_use_libraries,*,vcl, revealed that an explicit use of vcl was missing from various Executables etc., which thus had to be added now.)
