Add internal _cogl_init() function

This adds a _cogl_init function for Cogl that we expect to be the first
thing called before anything else is done with Cogl. It's not a public
API so it's expected that all entry points for Cogl that might be the
first function used should call _cogl_init().

We currently call _cogl_init() in these functions:
  cogl_renderer_new
  cogl_display_new
  cogl_context_new
  cogl_android_set_native_window

_cogl_init() can be called multiple times, and only the first call has
any affect.

For example _cogl_init() gives us a place check and parse the COGL_DEBUG
environment variable.

Since we don't have any need to parse command line arguments (we can
always get user configuration options from the environment) our init
function doesn't require argc/argv pointers.

By saying up front that we aren't interested in command line arguments
that means we can avoid the mess that is GOption based library
initialization which is extremely fragile due to its lack of dependency
tracking between modules.
