5a814e386a texture: add width/height members to base CoglTexture
There was a lot of redundancy in how we tracked the width and height of
different texture types which is greatly simplified by adding width and
height members to CoglTexture directly and removing the get_width and
get_height vfuncs from CoglTextureVtable

df21e20f65 Adds CoglError api
Although we use GLib internally in Cogl we would rather not leak GLib
api through Cogl's own api, except through explicitly namespaced
cogl_glib_ / cogl_gtype_ feature apis.

One of the benefits we see to not leaking GLib through Cogl's public API
is that documentation for Cogl won't need to first introduce the Glib
API to newcomers, thus hopefully lowering the barrier to learning Cogl.

This patch provides a Cogl specific typedef for reporting runtime errors
which by no coincidence matches the typedef for GError exactly.  If Cogl
is built with --enable-glib (default) then developers can even safely
assume that a CoglError is a GError under the hood.

This patch also enforces a consistent policy for when NULL is passed as
an error argument and an error is thrown. In this case we log the error
and abort the application, instead of silently ignoring it. In common
cases where nothing has been implemented to handle a particular error
and/or where applications are just printing the error and aborting
themselves then this saves some typing. This also seems more consistent
with language based exceptions which usually cause a program to abort if
they are not explicitly caught (which passing a non-NULL error signifies
in this case)

Since this policy for NULL error pointers is stricter than the standard
GError convention, there is a clear note in the documentation to warn
developers that are used to using the GError api.

Note: Since we can't change the Cogl 1.x api the patch was changed to
not rename _error_quark() functions to be _error_domain() functions and
although it's a bit ugly, instead of providing our own CoglError type
that's compatible with GError we simply #define CoglError to GError
unless Cogl is built with glib disabled.

Note: this patch does technically introduce an API break since it drops
the cogl_error_get_type() symbol generated by glib-mkenum (Since the
CoglError enum was replaced by a CoglSystemError enum) but for now we
are assuming that this will not affect anyone currently using the Cogl
API. If this does turn out to be a problem in practice then we would be
able to fix this my manually copying an implementation of
cogl_error_get_type() generated by glib-mkenum into a compatibility
source file and we could also define the original COGL_ERROR_ enums for
compatibility too.

Note: another minor concern with cherry-picking this patch to the 1.14
branch is that an api scanner would be lead to believe that some APIs
have changed, and for example the gobject-introspection parser which
understands the semantics of GError will not understand the semantics of
CoglError. We expect most people that have tried to use
gobject-introspection with Cogl already understand though that it is not
well suited to generating bindings of the Cogl api anyway and we aren't
aware or anyone depending on such bindings for apis involving GErrors.
(GnomeShell only makes very-very minimal use of Cogl via the gjs
bindings for the cogl_rectangle and cogl_color apis.)

The main reason we have cherry-picked this patch to the 1.14 branch
even given the above concerns is that without it it would become very
awkward for us to cherry-pick other beneficial patches from master.

e5fea8b734 egl-x11: Don't use GLXDrawable on EGL
Someone trying to compile cogl (ThijsNL on irc0 for the Rasberry Pi

environment.

Change it to Window, the type used for XConfigureEvent.window.

df51574116 onscreen: Adds support for resizable windows
This adds api to be able to request that the window system allows a
given onscreen framebuffer to be resizable, and api to add and remove
resize handlers to be called whenever the framebuffer does actually
change size.

The new functions are:
  cogl_onscreen_{get,set}_resizable()
  cogl_onscreen_{add,remove}_resize_handler()

The examples cogl-hello and cogl-x11-foreign have been updated to use
the new api. To smoke test how Cogl updates the viewport automatically
in response to window resizes the cogl-hello test doesn't explicitly
respond to resize events by setting the viewport and cogl-x11-foreign
responds by setting a viewport that is offset by a quarter of the
window's width/height and half the width and height of the window.

010d16f647 Adds initial GLES2 integration support
This makes it possible to integrate existing GLES2 code with
applications using Cogl as the rendering api.

Currently all GLES2 usage is handled with separate GLES2 contexts to
ensure that GLES2 api usage doesn't interfere with Cogl's own use of
OpenGL[ES]. The api has been designed though so we can provide tighter
integration later.

The api would allow us to support GLES2 virtualized on top of an
OpenGL/GLX driver as well as GLES2 virtualized on the core rendering api
of Cogl itself. Virtualizing the GLES2 support on Cogl will allow us to
take advantage of Cogl debugging facilities as well as let us optimize
the cost of allocating multiple GLES2 contexts and switching between
them which can both be very expensive with many drivers.

As as a side effect of this patch Cogl can also now be used as a
portable window system binding API for GLES2 as an alternative to EGL.

Parts of this patch are based on work done by Tomeu Vizoso
<tomeu.vizoso@collabora.com> who did the first iteration of adding GLES2
API support to Cogl so that WebGL support could be added to
webkit-clutter.

This patch adds a very minimal cogl-gles2-context example that shows how
to create a gles2 context, clear the screen to a random color and also
draw a triangle with the cogl api.

54735dec84 Switch use of primitive glib types to c99 equivalents
The coding style has for a long time said to avoid using redundant glib
data types such as gint or gchar etc because we feel that they make the
code look unnecessarily foreign to developers coming from outside of the
Gnome developer community.

Note: When we tried to find the historical rationale for the types we
just found that they were apparently only added for consistent syntax
highlighting which didn't seem that compelling.

Up until now we have been continuing to use some of the platform
specific type such as gint{8,16,32,64} and gsize but this patch switches
us over to using the standard c99 equivalents instead so we can further
ensure that our code looks familiar to the widest range of C developers
who might potentially contribute to Cogl.

So instead of using the gint{8,16,32,64} and guint{8,16,32,64} types this
switches all Cogl code to instead use the int{8,16,32,64}_t and
uint{8,16,32,64}_t c99 types instead.

Instead of gsize we now use size_t

For now we are not going to use the c99 _Bool type and instead we have
introduced a new CoglBool type to use instead of gboolean.

09642a83b5 Removes all remaining use of CoglHandle
Removing CoglHandle has been an on going goal for quite a long time now
and finally this patch removes the last remaining uses of the CoglHandle
type and the cogl_handle_ apis.

Since the big remaining users of CoglHandle were the cogl_program_ and
cogl_shader_ apis which have replaced with the CoglSnippets api this
patch removes both of these apis.

a8513c1d77 renderer: Adds api to add/remove selection constraints
This allows applications to specify certain constraints that feed into
the process of selecting a CoglRenderer backend. For example
applications might depend on x11 for handling input and so they require
a backend that's also based on x11.

181b875a3d xlib: Internally retrieve XEvents
Previously we relied on the application to send all X events through
Cogl using cogl_xlib_renderer_handle_event. This breaks the
abstraction that an application shouldn't need to know what winsys
Cogl is using. Now that we have main loop integreation in Cogl, the
Xlib-based winsys's can report that Cogl needs to block on the file
descriptor of the X connection and it can manually handle the
events.

The event retrieval can be disabled by an application if it calls the
new cogl_xlib_renderer_set_event_retrieval_enabled() function. The
event retrieval will also automatically be disabled if the application
sets a foreign display.

616d27f169 cogl-texture-2d: Fix checking for the EGL winsys
CoglTexture2D had an assert to verify that the EGL winsys was being
used. This doesn't make any sense any more because the EGL winsys
can't be used directly but instead it is just a base winsys for the
platform winsys's. To fix this this patch adds a set of 'criteria'
flags to each winsys, one of which is 'uses EGL'. CoglTexture2D can
use this to determine if the winsys is supported.

Eventually we might want to expose these flags publically so that an
application can select a winsys based on certain conditions. For
example, an application may need a winsys that uses X or EGL but
doesn't care exactly which one it is.

ff5bfc4a86 Rename the EGL_X11 winsys to EGL_XLIB
Eventually we might want to have an XCB-based EGL winsys. We already
have xlib-specific API in CoglRenderer (eg, to set a foreign display)
so the application needs to be able to specifically select between XCB
and XLIB.

This also removes the POWERVR part while renaming
COGL_HAS_EGL_PLATFORM_POWERVR_X11_SUPPORT to
COGL_HAS_EGL_PLATFORM_XLIB_SUPPORT because the winsys is equally
applicable to Mesa.

a1e1527b69 Add a separate winsys vtable for each EGL platform
Instead of just having an "EGL" renderer, there is now a separate
winsys for each platform. Currently they just directly copy the vtable
for the EGL platform so it is still only possible to have one EGL
platform compiled into Cogl. However the intention is that the
winsys-specific code for each platform will be moved into override
functions in the corresponding platform winsys.
