Just pass it in to the vertex shader like in GLES, it's one less thing
to vary between drivers. mutter is, shall we say, not a heavy user of
point primitives, so any performance impact (it might be measurable, who
knows) is not an issue. Again, the feature flag remains to be cleaned up
in a future commit.

At this point only the gl driver is at all aware of the difference
between core and compat contexts. COGL_PRIVATE_FEATURE_GL_FIXED is also
now quite misnamed, since we're using the GLSL pipeline even for pre-GL3
contexts. Remove the private feature and handle the few remaining
differences by checking the driver class inside the gl driver.

They have been deprecated for a long time, and all their uses in clutter
and mutter has been removed. This also removes some no longer needed
legacy state tracking, as they were only ever excercised in certain
circumstances when there was sources (pipelines or materials) on the now
removed source stack.

Threaded swap wait was added for using together with the Nvidia GLX
driver due to the lack of anything equivalent to the INTEL_swap_event
GLX extension. The purpose was to avoid inhibiting the invocation of
idle callbacks when constantly rendering, as the combination of
throttling on swap-interval 1 and glxSwapBuffers() and the frame clock
source having higher priority than the default idle callback sources
meant they would never be invoked.
This was solved in gbz#779039 by introducing a thread that took care of
the vsync waiting, pushing frame completion events to the main thread
meaning the main thread could go idle while waiting to draw the next
frame instead of blocking on glxSwapBuffers().
As of https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/merge_requests/363, the
main thread will instead use prediction to estimate when the next frame
should be drawn. A side effect of this is that even without
INTEL_swap_event, we would not block as much, or at all, on
glxSwapBuffers(), as at the time it is called, we have likely already
hit the vblank, or will hit it soon.
After having introduced the swap waiting thread, it was observed that
the Nvidia driver used a considerable amount of CPU waiting for the
vblank, effectively wasting CPU time. The need to call glFinish() was
also problematic as it would wait for the frame to finish, before
continuing. Due to this, remove the threaded swap wait, and rely only on
the frame clock not scheduling frames too early.

We're going to add some features and extra code to CoglPixelFormat, so
it's much nicer to have it in once place. Notice also that it doesn't
make sense that e.g. `_cogl_pixel_format_get_bytes_per_pixel()` were in
a private header, since they were being exported anyway.

This basically reverts commit 54735dec, which tried to avoid the
GLib-defined types in favor the standard C ones. One exception to this
is the bool type, for which the commit introduces a new type CoglBool.
Let's just get rid of this type in favor of having consistency with the
GLib types. Note by the way that neither CoglBool nor gboolean (which
has a size of `int`) are completely compatible with bool (size `char`).

This macro was introduced so as to be able to be built without GLib.
However, this feature was long ago removed, and in Mutter we depend on
it anyway, so let's get rid of it in favor of more consistency.
It's a good guess that the buffer swap will occur at the next vblank,
so use glXWaitVideoSync in a separate thread to deliver a sync event
rather than just letting the client block when frame drawing, which
can signficantly change app logic as compared to the INTEL_swap_event
case.
