gstreamer media backend: Disable OpenGL on Windows

...for at least WGL, since we are not allowed to use wglMakeCurrent(),
which is eventually called by gdk_gl_context_make_current() to share WGL
contexts across different threads, which will cause a crash.

This means, we cannot enable WGL in the gstreamer media backend on
Windows.
