Subject: [PATCH] Give an error when trying to use wxGLCanvas on non-X11
display
Currently, wxGLCanvas on wxGTK is only supported on X11 displays. If a
user attempts to use wxGLCanvas on Wayland, for example, the application
will core dump. This change adds an error message and a suggested
workaround until wxGLCanvas is supported on Wayland.
See #17702
