Description:

The meson build (autotools is ok) upstream has a bug, where the X11 auth codepath isn't build. So things like `vainfo --display drm --device /dev/dri/card0` fails, when run in an X session. The bigger issue is that apps/libraries can do the same and sometimes there's no way to change/fix them.

Issue happens regardless of the driver - tested both i965_video_drv and radeonsi_video_drv

I've opened a bugfix PR upstream, but the maintainers seem MIA. Please consider picking it locally.

Additional info:
* package version(s)
libva 2.15.0-1

* link to upstream bug report, if any
https://github.com/intel/libva/pull/612

Steps to reproduce:
- In an X11 session run `vainfo --display drm --device /dev/dri/card0`
- Observe the failure
- Apply the patch, re-run the command -> it's succesfull
This task depends upon
