Created attachment 296539 [details] [review]
Warn users when they attempt to request a GL context version less than 3.2

A request for a 1.4 context will be changed to a request for a 3.4 context and fail whereas a request for a 1.2 context will be changed to a request for a 3.2 context and succeed. Neither 1.2 or 1.4 contexts are supported but the behavior of the gdkgl should be consistent.

I've attached a patch that fixes this inconsistency and also warns the user if they request a version less than 3.2.
