0e112c3371 cogl: Add the missing terminators for the arrays of feature functions
_cogl_feature_check expects the array of function names to be
terminated with a NULL pointer but I forgot to add this. This was
causing crashes depending on what happened to be in memory after the
array.

058d79dce2 cogl: Make it easier to add checks for GL extensions
Previously if you need to depend on a new GL feature you had to:

- Add typedefs for all of the functions in cogl-defines.h.in

- Add function pointers for each of the functions in
  cogl-context-driver.h

- Add an initializer for the function pointers in
  cogl-context-driver.c

- Add a check for the extension and all of the functions in
  cogl_features_init. If the extension is available under multiple
  names then you have to duplicate the checks.

This is quite tedious and error prone. This patch moves all of the
features and their functions into a list of macro invocations in
cogl-feature-functions.h. The macros can be redefined to implement all
of the above tasks from the same header.

The features are described in a struct with a pointer to a table of
functions. A new function takes the feature description from this
struct and checks for its availability. The feature can take a list of
extension names with a list of alternate namespaces (such as "EXT" or
"ARB"). It can also detect the feature from a particular version of
GL.

The typedefs are now gone and instead the function pointer in the Cogl
context just directly contains the type.

Some of the functions in the context were previously declared with the
'ARB' extension. This has been removed so that now all the functions
have no suffix. This makes more sense when the extension could
potentially be merged into GL core as well.

a50907848f Validate that the GL version is >= 1.2
There is a new internal Cogl function called _cogl_check_driver_valid
which looks at the value of the GL_VERSION string to determine whether
the driver is supported. Clutter now calls this after the stage is
realized. If it fails then the stage is marked as unrealized and a
warning is shown.

_cogl_features_init now also checks the version number before getting
the function pointers for glBlendFuncSeparate and
glBlendEquationSeparate. It is not safe to just check for the presence
of the functions because some drivers may define the function without
fully implementing the spec.

The GLES version of _cogl_check_driver_valid just always returns TRUE
because there are no version requirements yet.

Eventually the function could also check for mandatory extensions if
there were any.

bb3a008318 [draw-buffers] First pass at overhauling Cogl's framebuffer management
Cogl's support for offscreen rendering was originally written just to support
the clutter_texture_new_from_actor API and due to lack of documentation and
several confusing - non orthogonal - side effects of using the API it wasn't
really possible to use directly.

This commit does a number of things:
- It removes {gl,gles}/cogl-fbo.{c,h} and adds shared cogl-draw-buffer.{c,h}
  files instead which should be easier to maintain.
- internally CoglFbo objects are now called CoglDrawBuffers. A
  CoglDrawBuffer is an abstract base class that is inherited from to
  implement CoglOnscreen and CoglOffscreen draw buffers.  CoglOffscreen draw
  buffers will initially be used to support the
  cogl_offscreen_new_to_texture API, and CoglOnscreen draw buffers will
  start to be used internally to represent windows as we aim to migrate some
  of Clutter's backend code to Cogl.
- It makes draw buffer objects the owners of the following state:
  - viewport
  - projection matrix stack
  - modelview matrix stack
  - clip state
(This means when you switch between draw buffers you will automatically be
 switching to their associated viewport, matrix and clip state)

Aside from hopefully making cogl_offscreen_new_to_texture be more useful
short term by having simpler and well defined semantics for
cogl_set_draw_buffer, as mentioned above this is the first step for a couple
of other things:
- Its a step toward moving ownership for windows down from Clutter backends
  into Cogl, by (internally at least) introducing the CoglOnscreen draw
  buffer.  Note: the plan is that cogl_set_draw_buffer will accept on or
  offscreen draw buffer handles, and the "target" argument will become
  redundant since we will instead query the type of the given draw buffer
  handle.
- Because we have a common type for on and offscreen framebuffers we can
  provide a unified API for framebuffer management. Things like:
  - blitting between buffers
  - managing ancillary buffers (e.g. attaching depth and stencil buffers)
  - size requisition
  - clearing

0bce7eac53 Intial Re-layout of the Cogl source code and introduction of a Cogl Winsys
As part of an incremental process to have Cogl be a standalone project we
want to re-consider how we organise the Cogl source code.

Currently this is the structure I'm aiming for:
cogl/
    cogl/
	<put common source here>
	winsys/
	   cogl-glx.c
	   cogl-wgl.c
	driver/
	    gl/
	    gles/
	os/ ?
    utils/
	cogl-fixed
	cogl-matrix-stack?
        cogl-journal?
        cogl-primitives?
    pango/

The new winsys component is a starting point for migrating window system
code (i.e.  x11,glx,wgl,osx,egl etc) from Clutter to Cogl.

The utils/ and pango/ directories aren't added by this commit, but they are
noted because I plan to add them soon.

Overview of the planned structure:

* The winsys/ API is the API that binds OpenGL to a specific window system,
  be that X11 or win32 etc.  Example are glx, wgl and egl. Much of the logic
  under clutter/{glx,osx,win32 etc} should migrate here.

* Note there is also the idea of a winsys-base that may represent a window
  system for which there are multiple winsys APIs.  An example of this is
  x11, since glx and egl may both be used with x11.  (currently only Clutter
  has the idea of a winsys-base)

* The driver/ represents a specific varient of OpenGL. Currently we have "gl"
  representing OpenGL 1.4-2.1 (mostly fixed function) and "gles" representing
  GLES 1.1 (fixed funciton) and 2.0 (fully shader based)

* Everything under cogl/ should fundamentally be supporting access to the
  GPU.  Essentially Cogl's most basic requirement is to provide a nice GPU
  Graphics API and drawing a line between this and the utility functionality
  we add to support Clutter should help keep this lean and maintainable.

* Code under utils/ as suggested builds on cogl/ adding more convenient
  APIs or mechanism to optimize special cases. Broadly speaking you can
  compare cogl/ to OpenGL and utils/ to GLU.

* clutter/pango will be moved to clutter/cogl/pango

How some of the internal configure.ac/pkg-config terminology has changed:
backendextra -> CLUTTER_WINSYS_BASE # e.g. "x11"
backendextralib -> CLUTTER_WINSYS_BASE_LIB # e.g. "x11/libclutter-x11.la"
clutterbackend -> {CLUTTER,COGL}_WINSYS # e.g. "glx"
CLUTTER_FLAVOUR -> {CLUTTER,COGL}_WINSYS
clutterbackendlib -> CLUTTER_WINSYS_LIB
CLUTTER_COGL -> COGL_DRIVER # e.g. "gl"

Note: The CLUTTER_FLAVOUR and CLUTTER_COGL defines are kept for apps

As the first thing to take advantage of the new winsys component in Cogl;
cogl_get_proc_address() has been moved from cogl/{gl,gles}/cogl.c into
cogl/common/cogl.c and this common implementation first trys
_cogl_winsys_get_proc_address() but if that fails then it falls back to
gmodule.
