This allows apps to catch out-of-memory errors when allocating textures.
Textures can be pretty huge at times and so it's quite possible for an
application to try and allocate more memory than is available. It's also
very possible that the application can take some action in response to
reduce memory pressure (such as freeing up texture caches perhaps) so
we shouldn't just automatically abort like we do for trivial heap
allocations.
These public functions now take a CoglError argument so applications can
catch out of memory errors:
cogl_buffer_map
cogl_buffer_map_range
cogl_buffer_set_data
cogl_framebuffer_read_pixels_into_bitmap
cogl_pixel_buffer_new
cogl_texture_new_from_data
cogl_texture_new_from_bitmap
Note: we've been quite conservative with how many apis we let throw OOM
CoglErrors since we don't really want to put a burdon on developers to
be checking for errors with every cogl api call. So long as there is
some lower level api for apps to use that let them catch OOM errors
for everything necessary that's enough and we don't have to make more
convenient apis more awkward to use.
The main focus is on bitmaps and texture allocations since they
can be particularly large and prone to failing.
A new cogl_attribute_buffer_new_with_size() function has been added in
case developers need to catch OOM errors when allocating attribute buffers
whereby they can first use _buffer_new_with_size() (which doesn't take a
CoglError) followed by cogl_buffer_set_data() which will lazily allocate
the buffer storage and report OOM errors.

Note: since we can't break the API for Cogl 1.x then actually the main
purpose of cherry picking this patch is to keep in-line with changes
on the master branch so that we can easily cherry-pick patches.
All the api changes relating stable apis released on the 1.12 branch
have been reverted as part of cherry-picking this patch so this most
just applies all the internal plumbing changes that enable us to
correctly propagate OOM errors.
This makes it possible to create vertex attributes that efficiently
represent constant values without duplicating the constant for every
vertex. This adds the following new constructors for constant
attributes:
cogl_attribute_new_const_1f
cogl_attribute_new_const_2fv
cogl_attribute_new_const_3fv
cogl_attribute_new_const_4fv
cogl_attribute_new_const_2f

cogl_attribute_new_const_2x2fv

This removes the need to maintain an array of tex_coord varyings and
instead we now just emit a varying per-layer uniquely named using a
layer_number infix like cogl_tex_coord0_out and cogl_tex_coord0_in.
Notable this patch also had to change the journal flushing code to use
pipeline layer numbers to determine the name of texture coordinate
attributes.
We now also break batches by using a deeper comparison of layers so
such that two pipelines with the same number of layers can now cause a
batch break if they use different layer numbers.
This adds an internal _cogl_pipeline_layer_numbers_equal() function that
takes two pipelines and returns TRUE if they have the same number of
layers and all the layer numbers are the same too, otherwise it returns
FALSE.
Where we used to break batches based on changes to the number of layers
we now break according to the status of
_cogl_pipeline_layer_numbers_equal

Note: this will cause a temporary regression for the Cogl 1.x CoglShader
api since it will break compatibility with existing shaders that
reference the texture varyings from the fragment shader.
The intention is to follow up with another patch to add back
CoglShader compatibility.
This adds a new CoglDriver for GL 3 called COGL_DRIVER_GL3. When
requested, the GLX, EGL and SDL2 winsyss will set the necessary
attributes to request a forward-compatible core profile 3.1 context.
That means it will have no deprecated features.
To simplify the explosion of checks for specific combinations of
context->driver, many of these conditionals have now been replaced
with private feature flags that are checked instead. The GL and GLES
drivers now initialise these private feature flags depending on which
driver is used.
The fixed function backends now explicitly check whether the fixed
function private feature is available which means the GL3 driver will
fall back to always using the GLSL progend. Since Rob's latest patches
the GLSL progend no longer uses any fixed function API anyway so it
should just work.
The driver is currently lower priority than COGL_DRIVER_GL so it will
not be used unless it is specificly requested. We may want to change
this priority at some point because apparently Mesa can make some
memory savings if a core profile context is used.
In GL 3, getting the combined extensions string with glGetString is
deprecated so this patch changes it to use glGetStringi to build up an
array of extensions instead. _cogl_context_get_gl_extensions now
returns this array instead of trying to return a const string. The
caller is expected to free the array.
Some issues with this patch:
• GL 3 does not support GL_ALPHA format textures. We should probably
make this a feature flag or something. Cogl uses this to render text
which currently just throws a GL error and breaks so it's pretty
important to do something about this before considering the GL3
driver to be stable.
• GL 3 doesn't support client side vertex buffers. This probably
doesn't matter because CoglBuffer won't normally use malloc'd
buffers if VBOs are available, but it might but worth making
malloc'd buffers a private feature and forcing it not to use them.
• GL 3 doesn't support the default vertex array object. This patch
just makes it create and bind a single non-default vertex array
object which gets used just like the normal default object. Ideally
it would be good to use vertex array objects properly and attach
them to a CoglPrimitive to cache the state.

Since we used to support hybrid fixed-function + glsl pipelines when
running with OpenGL there were numerous differences in how we handled
codegen and uniform updates between GLES2 and full OpenGL. Now that we
only support end-to-end glsl pipelines this patch can largely unify how
we handle GLES2 and OpenGL.
Most notably we now never use the builtin attribute names. This should
also make it easy for us to support creating strict OpenGL 3.1 contexts
where the builtin names have been removed.
