vo_gpu: context_glx: remove legacy create_context_x11_old()

The old/legacy code-path isn't really needed for mpv use-cases.

In particular:

All Mesa drivers (even GL 2.1 ones like lima/vc4) work fine with the
"non-legacy" path.

From proprietary/binary drivers - the vendor either does not support
desktop GL or the drivers/HW is not actively supported.

Looking at the Nvidia HW - anything GeForce 7 and older is GL 2.1 and
lacks decent video acceleration. The latest official drivers are from
2017.

All newer Nvidia HW is GL 3.3+ thus must have GLX_ARB_create_context as
in the non-legacy path, while also good acceleration albeit via VDPAU
in some cases.

With the old path gone, provide meaningful error message in the very
unlikely case that GLX_ARB_create_context is missing.
