Wayland: Document when behaviour differs

This should describe all of the Wayland-specific points, mostly in
three categories:
- Missing GLFW features, for example window frame, screensaver
  inhibition, clipboard or file drop.
- Missing protocols, like setting gamma on a monitor or specifying a
  window icon.
- Fundamental incompatibilities with Wayland concepts, like trying to
  handle global positioning of a window in a 2D space, trying to bring
  a window to front, or trying to change the monitor’s mode.

Closes #881.
