This declares the interface types CoglFramebuffer, CoglBuffer,
CoglTexture, CoglMetaTexture and CoglPrimitiveTexture as void when
including the public cogl.h header so that users don't have to use lots
of C type casts between instance types and interface types.
This also removes all of the COGL_XYZ() type cast macros since they do
nothing more than compile time type casting but it's less readable if
you haven't seen that coding pattern before.
Unlike with gobject based apis that use per-type macros for casting and
performing runtime type checking we instead prefer to do our runtime
type checking internally within the front-end public apis when objects
are passed into Cogl. This greatly reduces the verbosity for users of
the api and may help reduce the chance of excessive runtime type
checking that can sometimes be a problem.

Since we can't break the 1.x api this version of the patch actually
defines compatible NOP macros within deprecated/cogl-type-casts.h
This adds a modification to the test-point-sprite test which uses a
shader snippet which directly references cogl_point_coord instead of
relying on cogl_pipeline_set_layer_point_sprite_coords_enabled to
replace the texture coordinates with the point coords.

When splitting out the CoglPath api we saw that we would be left with
inconsistent drawing apis if the drawing apis in core Cogl were lumped
into the cogl_framebuffer_ api considering other Cogl sub-libraries or
that others will want to create higher level drawing apis outside of
Cogl but can't use the same namespace.
So that we can aim for a more consistent style this adds a
cogl_primitive_draw() api, comparable to cogl_path_fill() or
cogl_pango_show_layout() that's intended to replace
cogl_framebuffer_draw_primitive()
Note: the attribute and rectangle drawing apis are still in the
cogl_framebuffer_ namespace and this might potentially change but in
these cases there is no single object representing the thing being drawn
so it seems a more reasonable they they live in the framebuffer
namespace for now.
Note: the cogl_framebuffer_draw_primitive() api isn't removed by this
patch so it can more conveniently be cherry picked to the 1.16 branch so
we can mark it deprecated for a short while. Even though it's marked as
experimental api we know that there are people using the api so we'd
like to give them a chance to switch to the new 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.
There is currently a known bug where when rendering offscreen point
sprites will be rendered upside-down. For that reason
test-point-sprite is marked as a known failure because it checks the
orientation of the point sprites and the conformance test suite is
rendered to offscreen buffers by default. However this doesn't help to
catch more general failures that stop the point sprites being rendered
at all. To fix this the test-point-sprite test has been split into two
tests, one which verifies the orientation and one which does not. The
two tests are in the same source file and internally share the same
static function but pass a flag to specify whether to check the
orientation. If the orientation should be ignored then it will create
a 2x1 texture instead of a 2x2 texture so that it will appear the same
regardless of whether it is upside-down. The checks for the colors
have been altered accordingly.

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.

This adds experimental 2.0 api replacements for the cogl_rectangle[_*]
functions that don't depend on having a current pipeline set on the
context via cogl_{set,push}_source() or having a current framebuffer set
on the context via cogl_push_framebuffer(). The aim for 2.0 is to switch
away from having a statefull context that affects drawing to having
framebuffer drawing apis that are explicitly passed a framebuffer and
pipeline.
To test this change several of the conformance tests were updated to use
this api instead of cogl_rectangle and
cogl_rectangle_with_texture_coords. Since it's quite laborious going
through all of the conformance tests the opportunity was taken to make
other clean ups in the conformance tests to replace other uses of
1.x api with experimental 2.0 api so long as that didn't affect what was
being tested.
This adds a conformance test which renders a texture point using a 2x2
texture with a different color for each texel. It then verifies that
each texel is mapped to the correct position on the point. The test is
currently failing.
The test requires the point sprite feature flag so this patch also
adds a TEST_REQUIREMENT_* flag for that.
