Bug Description
Gala should automatically disable animations when it finds itself software-rendered.
The animations bool in GSettings should be converted to an enum with "enabled", "disabled" and "auto" options; in "auto" mode (default) Gala should check CLUTTER_COGL_HAS_GL constant to determine if it's software-rendered or not, and if yes, disable animations.
I couldn't find any documentation on that variable, so we might need additional testing to determine if llvmpipe counts as hardware acceleration (in theory it should not).
