[Bug 874854] [NEW] Add hooks for the workarounds plugin to change variables prior to and after GLXContext init to work around bugs in broken drivers

 

Public bug reported:

Some broken drivers expect certain environment variables and state to be set on startup, we should provide hooks pre and post paint handler registration in order to set up that
state in the workarounds plugin
