In OpenGL the 'shininess' lighting parameter is floating point value
limited to the range 0.0→128.0. This number is used to affect the size
of the specular highlight. Cogl materials used to only accept a number
between 0.0 and 1.0 which then gets multiplied by 128.0 before sending
to GL. I think the assumption was that this is just a weird GL quirk
so we don't expose it. However the value is used as an exponent to
raise the attenuation to a power so there is no conceptual limit to
the value.
This removes the mapping and changes some of the documentation.

When flushing a fixed-function or arbfp material it would always call
disable_glsl to try to get rid of the previous GLSL shader. This is
needed even if current_use_program_type is not GLSL because if an
application calls cogl_program_uniform then Cogl will have to bind the
program to set the uniform. If this happens then it won't update
current_use_program_type presumably because the enabled state of arbfp
is still valid.
The problem was that disable_glsl would only select program zero when
the current_use_program_type is set to GLSL which wouldn't be the case
if cogl_program_uniform was called. This patch changes it to just
directly call _cogl_gl_use_program_wrapper(0) instead of having a
separate disable_glsl function. The current program is cached in the
cogl context anyway so it shouldn't cause any extra unnecessary GL
calls.

This moves the code supporting _cogl_material_flush_gl_state into
cogl-material-opengl.c as part of an effort to reduce the size of
cogl-material.c to keep it manageable.
In general cogl-material.c has become far to large to manage in one
source file. As one of the ways to try and break it down this patch
starts to move some of lower level texture unit state management out
into cogl-material-opengl.c. The naming is such because the plan is to
follow up and migrate the very GL specific state flushing code into the
same file.
