[Bug 1987628] [NEW] Xwayland fails to start on Xilinx: symbol lookup error: /usr/bin/Xwayland: undefined symbol: gbm_bo_get_fd_for_plane

[Impact]

Xwayland fails to start on Xilinx:

/usr/bin/Xwayland: symbol lookup error: /usr/bin/Xwayland: undefined
symbol: gbm_bo_get_fd_for_plane

Without Xwayland you cannot run X11 apps in Wayland sessions (or even
log into a gnome-shell Wayland session).

[Test Plan]

Run: Xwayland -h

Expected: Command line options to be displayed.

Observed: symbol lookup error: /usr/bin/Xwayland: undefined symbol:
gbm_bo_get_fd_for_plane

[Where problems could occur]

Since this changes Xwayland initialization for all platforms, risk of
bugs and regressions reaches all platforms. At best an Xwayland failure
would prevent X11 apps from working properly, or at worst prevent gnome-
shell Wayland sessions from starting (this bug).

[Other Info]

Fixing this for jammy is a prerequisite to resolve bug 1961563.
