To create a wl_buffer from one or more dmabufs, a client creates a
zwp_linux_dmabuf_params_v1 object with a zwp_linux_dmabuf_v1.create_params
request. All planes required by the intended format are added with

+ the 'add' request. Finally, a 'create' or 'create_immed' request is
+ issued, which has the following outcome depending on the import success.
+
+ The 'create' request,
+ - on success, triggers a 'created' event which provides the final
+ wl_buffer to the client.
+ - on failure, triggers a 'failed' event to convey that the server
+ cannot use the dmabufs received from the client.
+
+ For the 'create_immed' request,
+ - on success, the server immediately imports the added dmabufs to
+ create a wl_buffer. No event is sent from the server in this case.
+ - on failure, the server can choose to either:
+ - terminate the client by raising a fatal error.
+ - mark the wl_buffer as failed, and send a 'failed' event to the
+ client. If the client uses a failed wl_buffer as an argument to any
+ request, the behaviour is compositor implementation-defined.

+ In case of import success, no event is sent from the server, and the
+ wl_buffer is ready to be used by the client.
+
+ Upon import failure, either of the following may happen, as seen fit
+ by the implementation:
+ - the client is terminated with one of the following fatal protocol
+ errors:
+ - INCOMPLETE, INVALID_FORMAT, INVALID_DIMENSIONS, OUT_OF_BOUNDS,

+ of planes and the format, bad format, non-positive width or
+ height, or bad offset or stride.
+ - INVALID_WL_BUFFER, in case the cause for failure is unknown or

+ - the server creates an invalid wl_buffer, marks it as failed and
+ sends a 'failed' event to the client. The result of using this
+ invalid wl_buffer as an argument in any request by the client is
+ defined by the compositor implementation.
