vout: use designated initializers for display ops

Romain Vimont requested to merge rom1v/vlc:designated_initializers into master

Benefits of not using designated initializers:

  • we can't forget a callback
  • it's the same in C and C++ (<20)

Benefits of using designated initializers:

  • the order of callbacks may not be wrong
  • we can read immediately which function is assigned to which callback (especially if some are NULL)
  • an optional callback may be added without modifying all the modules
  • we can grep a callback name to find its assignments easily
  • it is consistent with others xxx_operations in the codebase
