Note: This requires as least gstreamer 1.21 which is not released, if you build from source you can override the plugin paths with:

export GST_PLUGIN_SYSTEM_PATH="/usr/local/lib64/gstreamer-1.0"
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/local/lib64/:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH

export GST_PLUGIN_PATH="$PWD/target/debug"
gst-launch-1.0 wlrscreencopysrc display="wayland-1" ! glupload ! glcolorconvert ! gldownload ! vah264enc ! vah264dec ! vapostproc ! queue ! waylandsink
