Log subscriber API is not type-safe. File and flight recorder
subscribers are created with functions that return
weston_log_subscriber objects. But there's a problem: to destroy
these objects you have to call the right function for each type
of subscriber, and a user calling the wrong destroy function
wouldn't get a warning.
Merge functions that destroy different types of subscribers, making
the log subscriber API type-safe.

If we use the function weston_log_context_add_log_scope()
in non-core code, it's necessary to access
weston_compositor::weston_log_ctx.
This is not ideal, since the goal is to make core structs
(weston_compositor, weston_surface, weston_output, etc)
opaque.
Add function weston_compositor_add_log_scope(), so non-core
users are able to pass weston_compositor as argument instead
of weston_compositor::weston_log_ctx.

There's a function named weston_compositor_log_scope_destroy()
but it doesn't take a struct weston_compositor argument.
Rename it to weston_log_scope_destroy(), as the argument is a
struct weston_log_scope.

There's a function named weston_compositor_add_log_scope()
but it doesn't take a struct weston_compositor argument.
Rename it to weston_log_ctx_add_log_scope(), as
the log_scope is being added to a log_context.
Also, bump libweston_major to 9.

In the function weston_log_subscription_printf() we have
a struct weston_log_subscription parameter that in the .c file
is named sub. In the .h, the same parameter is named scope.
This is confusing, since its type is not struct weston_log_scope,
but struct weston_log_subscription.
Rename the parameter in the .h to sub.

With it add also a function which can be used in an assert()-like
situation to display the contents of the ring buffer. Within gdb
this call also be called if the program is loaded/still loaded into
memory.
The global variable will be used in a later patch to be accessed from a
python gdb script.

Helper to retrieve next available subscription as to avoid exposing the
subscription, which is an opaque (internal) class of the logging
framework.

As 'new_subscription' can create additional objects, 'destroy_subscription'
will be needed when cleaning up.
As this requires a libweston_major bump (noticed by @pq), bump it up to
8.

The callback is executed when the subscription is created, so it doesn't
really have a proper name.

Rather than using 'begin_cb' rename it to a more suitable name.
Further more instead of using the scope use the subscription to pass as
an argument. The source scope is attached to the subscription when
creating it so we can access it that way.
This also adds a _complete and a _printf method for the subscription
such that the callbacks can use to write data to only _that_
subscription and to close/complete it, otherwise writing to a scope
results in writing to all subscriptions for that scope which is not
correct.
In the same time, the scope counter-parts of _write and _complete will
now use the subscription function as well.

As described in e10c9f89826bb: "weston-debug: Introduce...", the
subscriber object need further functionality to make use of it.
Current form of the weston-debug protocol would not need this, as it
creates underneath a new subscriber each time a client connects and
subscriptions are created/destroyed automatically with the help of
wayland protocol. For other types of streams, we require to manually
create a subscriber and to subscribe to log scopes.
This patch introduces the ability to create subscriptions, and
implicitly to subscribe to (previously created) scopes.
In the event the scope(s) are not created we temporary store the
subscription as a pending one: a subscription for which a scope doesn't
exist at the time of the subscription. When the scope for which the
subscription has been created we take care to create the subscription as
well.
While at it the documentation bits are modified accommodate the subscribe
method and its further functionality.
Lastly, it removes an unlikely case when a scope is not created so we
avoid any kind of dandling (pending) subscription in case there is
subscription to it. We can only do something about in the destroy part
of the scope.
