It's for completeness, so if you have libraries for both GLES1 and
GLES2, you can compare them easily and then choose the one that works
better for your application. If nothing else, then this may improve test
coverage. Because it's disabled by default, introducing this option
doesn't have any bad side effects. On the good side, it explicitly
disables GLES1, so if a later version of cogl switches to
auto-detection, the behaviour of the build won't change.

Regards,
Andreas
