We want applications to fully control the lifetime of a CoglContext
without having to worry that internal resources (such as the default
2d,3d and rectangle textures, or any caches we maintain) could result in
circular references that keep the context alive. We also want to avoid
making CoglContext into a special kind of object that isn't ref-counted
or that can't be used with object apis such as
cogl_object_set_user_data. Being able to reliably destroy the context is
important on platforms such as Android where you may be required
bring-up and tear-down a CoglContext numerous times throughout the
applications lifetime. A dissadvantage of this policy is that it is now
possible to leave other object such as framebuffers in an inconsistent
state if the context is unreferenced and destroyed. The documentation
states that all objects that directly or indirectly depend on a context
that has been destroyed will be left in an inconsistent state and must
not be accessed thereafter. Applications (such as Android applications)
that need to cleanly destroy and re-create Cogl resources should make
sure to manually unref these dependant objects before destroying the
context.

There are two extensions, GL_OES_packed_depth_stencil and
GL_EXT_packed_depth_stencil, that inform us that the hardware supports
packing the depth and stencil values together into one format.
The OES extension is the GLES equivalent of the EXT extension and the
two extensions provide the same enums with basically the same semantics,
except that the EXT extension is a lot more wordy due to a larger number
of features in the full OpenGL api and the OES extension has some
asymmetric limitations on when the GL_DEPTH_STENCIL and
GL_DEPTH24_STENCIL8 enums can be used as internal formats.
GL_OES_packed_depth_stencil doesn't allow the GL_DEPTH_STENCIL enum
to be passed to glRenderbufferStorage (GL_DEPTH24_STENCIL8 should be
used instead) and GL_OES_packed_depth_stencil doesn't allow
GL_DEPTH24_STENCIL8 to be passed as an internal format to glTexImage2D.
We had been handling the two extensions differently in Cogl by calling
try_creating_fbo with different flags depending on whether the OES or
EXT extension was available and passing GL_DEPTH_STENCIL to
glRenderbufferStorage when we have the EXT extension or
GL_DEPTH24_STENCIL8 with the OES extension.
To localize the code that deals with the differences between the
extensions this patch does away with the need for separate flags
so we now just have COGL_OFFSCREEN_ALLOCATE_FLAG_DEPTH_DEPTH_STENCIL and
right before calling glRenderbufferStorage we check which extension we
are using to decide whether to use the GL_DEPTH_STENCIL or
GL_DEPTH24_STENCIL8 enums.

When rendering the debug wireframe Cogl generates a child pipeline of
the application's pipeline to replace the fragment processing.
Previously it was creating a new snippet every time something was
drawn. Cogl doesn't attempt to compare the contents of snippets when
looking in the program cache for a matching pipeline so this would
cause it to generate a new program for every primitive. It then quite
quickly ends printing the warning about there being more than 50
programs in the cache. To fix that this patch makes it cache the
snippet so that Cogl can successfully recognise that it already has a
program generated for the new pipeline.

Previously the CoglDrawFlags passed to
_cogl_framebuffer_draw_indexed_attributes when drawing is redirected
to draw a wireframe are overriden to avoid validating the pipeline,
flushing the framebuffer state and flushing the journal. This ends up
breaking scenes that only contain models drawn from attributes in the
application because nothing will flush the matrices. It seems to make
more sense to just use whatever draw flags were passed from the
original draw command so that it will flush the matrices if the caller
was expecting it.
One problem with this is that if the wireframe causes the journal to
be flushed then it will already have temporarily disabled the
wireframe debug flag so the journal will not be drawn with wireframes.
To fix this the patch adds a CoglDrawFlag to disable the wireframe and
uses that instead of disabling the debug flag.

This makes it possible to integrate existing GLES2 code with
applications using Cogl as the rendering api.
Currently all GLES2 usage is handled with separate GLES2 contexts to
ensure that GLES2 api usage doesn't interfere with Cogl's own use of
OpenGL[ES]. The api has been designed though so we can provide tighter
integration later.
The api would allow us to support GLES2 virtualized on top of an
OpenGL/GLX driver as well as GLES2 virtualized on the core rendering api
of Cogl itself. Virtualizing the GLES2 support on Cogl will allow us to
take advantage of Cogl debugging facilities as well as let us optimize
the cost of allocating multiple GLES2 contexts and switching between
them which can both be very expensive with many drivers.
As as a side effect of this patch Cogl can also now be used as a
portable window system binding API for GLES2 as an alternative to EGL.
Parts of this patch are based on work done by Tomeu Vizoso
<tomeu.vizoso@collabora.com> who did the first iteration of adding GLES2
API support to Cogl so that WebGL support could be added to
webkit-clutter.
This patch adds a very minimal cogl-gles2-context example that shows how
to create a gles2 context, clear the screen to a random color and also

This re-designs the matrix stack so we now keep track of each separate
operation such as rotating, scaling, translating and multiplying as
immutable, ref-counted nodes in a graph.
Being a "graph" here means that different transformations composed of
a sequence of linked operation nodes may share nodes.
The first node in a matrix-stack is always a LOAD_IDENTITY operation.
As an example consider if an application where to draw three rectangles
A, B and C something like this:
cogl_framebuffer_scale (fb, 2, 2, 2);
cogl_framebuffer_push_matrix(fb);
cogl_framebuffer_translate (fb, 10, 0, 0);
cogl_framebuffer_push_matrix(fb);
cogl_framebuffer_rotate (fb, 45, 0, 0, 1);
cogl_framebuffer_draw_rectangle (...); /* A */
cogl_framebuffer_pop_matrix(fb);
cogl_framebuffer_draw_rectangle (...); /* B */
cogl_framebuffer_pop_matrix(fb);
cogl_framebuffer_push_matrix(fb);
cogl_framebuffer_set_modelview_matrix (fb, &mv);
cogl_framebuffer_draw_rectangle (...); /* C */
cogl_framebuffer_pop_matrix(fb);
That would result in a graph of nodes like this:
LOAD_IDENTITY
|
SCALE
/ \
SAVE LOAD
| |
TRANSLATE RECTANGLE(C)
| \
SAVE RECTANGLE(B)
|
ROTATE
|
RECTANGLE(A)
Each push adds a SAVE operation which serves as a marker to rewind too
when a corresponding pop is issued and also each SAVE node may also
store a cached matrix representing the composition of all its ancestor
nodes. This means if we repeatedly need to resolve a real CoglMatrix
for a given node then we don't need to repeat the composition.
Some advantages of this design are:
- A single pointer to any node in the graph can now represent a
complete, immutable transformation that can be logged for example
into a journal. Previously we were storing a full CoglMatrix in
each journal entry which is 16 floats for the matrix itself as well
as space for flags and another 16 floats for possibly storing a
cache of the inverse. This means that we significantly reduce
the size of the journal when drawing lots of primitives and we also
avoid copying over 128 bytes per entry.
- It becomes much cheaper to check for equality. In cases where some
(unlikely) false negatives are allowed simply comparing the pointers
of two matrix stack graph entries is enough. Previously we would use
memcmp() to compare matrices.
- It becomes easier to do comparisons of transformations. By looking
for the common ancestry between nodes we can determine the operations
that differentiate the transforms and use those to gain a high level
understanding of the differences. For example we use this in the
journal to be able to efficiently determine when two rectangle
transforms only differ by some translation so that we can perform
software clipping.

The coding style has for a long time said to avoid using redundant glib

Note: When we tried to find the historical rationale for the types we

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

actually this cherry-pick doesn't remove all remaining use of
CoglHandle as it did for the master branch of Cogl.
Mesa before version 8.0.2 has a slow read pixels path that gets used
with the Intel driver where it converts all of the pixels into a
floating point representation and back even if the data is being read
into exactly the same format. There is however a faster path using the
blitter when reading into a PBO with BGRA format. It works out faster
to read into a PBO and then memcpy back out into the application's
buffer even though it adds an extra memcpy. This patch adds a
workaround in cogl_framebuffer_read_pixels_into_bitmap when it detects
this situation. In that case it will create a temporary CoglBitmap
using cogl_bitmap_new_with_size, read into it and then memcpy the data
back out.
The main impetus for this patch is that Gnome Shell has implemented
this workaround directly using GL calls but it seems like the kind of
thing that would sit better at the Cogl layer.

value because the bpp*width is already aligned. To make it more likely

Cogl already had a vtable for the texture driver. This ended up being
used for some things that are not strictly related to texturing such
as converting between pixel formats and GL enums. Some other functions
that are driver dependent such as updating the features were not
indirected through a vtable but instead switched directly by looking
at the ctx->driver enum value. This patch normalises to the two uses
by adding a separate vtable for driver functions not related to
texturing and moves the pixel format conversion functions to it from
the texture driver vtable. It also adds a context parameter to all of
the functions in the new driver vtable so that they won't have to rely
on the global context.
This adds experimental 2.0 api replacements for the cogl_rectangle[_*]
functions that don't depend on having a current pipeline set on the

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

• Some files that were not including the header containing their

• Any unused error quark functions have been removed. If we later want
them we should add them back one by one and add a declaration for

• _cogl_is_framebuffer has been renamed to cogl_is_framebuffer and
made a public function with a declaration in cogl-framebuffer.h
• Similarly for CoglOnscreen.
• cogl_vdraw_indexed_attributes is called
cogl_framebuffer_vdraw_indexed_attributes in the header. The
definition has been changed to match the header.
• cogl_index_buffer_allocate has been removed. This had no declaration
and I'm not sure what it's supposed to do.
• CoglJournal has been changed to use the internal CoglObject macro so
that it won't define an exported cogl_is_journal symbol.
• The _cogl_blah_pointer_from_handle functions have been removed.
CoglHandle isn't used much anymore anyway and in the few places
where it is used I think it's safe to just use the implicit cast
from void* to the right type.

Previously flushing the matrices was performed as part of the
framebuffer state. When on GLES2 this matrix flushing is actually
diverted so that it only keeps a reference to the intended matrix
stack. This is necessary because on GLES2 there are no builtin
uniforms so it can't actually flush the matrices until the program for
the pipeline is generated. When the matrices are flushed it would
store the age of modifications on the matrix stack so that it could
detect when the matrix hasn't changed and avoid flushing it.
This patch changes it so that the pipeline is responsible for flushing
the matrices even when we are using the GL builtins. The same
mechanism for detecting unmodified matrix stacks is used in all
cases. There is a new CoglMatrixStackCache type which is used to store
a reference to the intended matrix stack along with its last flushed
age. There are now two of these attached to the CoglContext to track
the flushed state for the global matrix builtins and also two for each
glsl progend program state to track the flushed state for a
program. The framebuffer matrix flush now just updates the intended
matrix stacks without actually trying to flush.
When a vertex snippet is attached to the pipeline, the GLSL vertend
will now avoid using the projection matrix to flip the rendering. This
is necessary because any vertex snippet may cause the projection
matrix not to be used. Instead the flip is done as a forced final step
by multiplying cogl_position_out by a vec4 uniform. This uniform is
updated as part of the progend pre_paint depending on whether the
framebuffer is offscreen or not.

should be waiting until we have really been asked to flush some
framebuffer state otherwise we may do redundant work if multiple
framebuffers are pushed/popped before something is really drawn.
This integrates the color mask state tracking with the design we have
for handling most of the other framebuffer state so we benefit from the
optimizations for minimizing the cost of _cogl_framebuffer_flush_state()
Reviewed-by: Neil Roberts <neil@linux.intel.com>
Previously the cost of _cogl_framebuffer_state_flush() would always
scale by the total amount of state tracked by CoglFramebuffer even in
cases where we knew up-front that we only wanted to flush a subset of
the state or in cases where we requested to flush the same framebuffer
multiple times with no changes being made to the framebuffer.
We now track a set of state changed flags with each framebuffer and
track the current read/draw buffers as part of the CoglContext so that
we can quickly bail out when asked to flush the same framebuffer
multiple times with no changes.
_cogl_framebuffer_flush_state() now takes a mask of the state that we
want to flush and the implementation has been redesigned so that the
cost of checking what needs to be flushed and flushing those changes
now scales by how much state we actually plan to update.

This adds cogl_framebuffer_ methods to update the modelview and

This is part of the on-going effort to get rid of the global CoglContext
pointer since the existing methods don't take an explicit pointer to a
CoglContext. All the methods are now related to a context via the
framebuffer.
We added framebuffer methods instead of direct context methods because
the matrix stacks are per-framebuffer and as well as removing the global
CoglContext we would rather aim for a more direct state access API
design than, say, cairo or OpenGL, so we'd like to avoid needing the
cogl_push/pop_framebuffer(). We anticipate that Cogl will mostly be
consumed by middleware graphics layers such as toolkits or game engines
and feel that a more stateless model will avoid impedance mismatches if
higher levels want to expose a stateless model to their developers and
statefullness can still be added by higher levels if really desired.

Cogl keeps a pointer to the last used onscreen framebuffer from the
context to implement the deprecated cogl_set_draw_buffer function
which can take COGL_WINDOW_BUFFER as the target to use the last

pointer. However that was causing a circular reference between the
framebuffer and the context which makes it impossible to clean up

changes it to just store the pointer and then clear the pointer during
_cogl_onscreen_free as a kind of cheap weak reference.

Since we've had several developers from admirable projects say they

Actually --disable-glib doesn't strictly disable glib at this point

Currently features are represented as bits in a 32bit mask so we
obviously can't have more than 32 features with that approach. The new
approach is to use the COGL_FLAGS_ macros which lets us handle bitmasks
without a size limit and we change the public api to accept individual
feature enums instead of a mask. This way there is no limit on the
number of features we can add to Cogl.
Instead of using cogl_features_available() there is a new
cogl_has_feature() function and for checking multiple features there is
cogl_has_features() which takes a zero terminated vararg list of
features.
In addition to being able to check for individual features this also
adds a way to query all the features currently available via
cogl_foreach_feature() which will call a callback for each feature.
Since the new functions take an explicit context pointer there is also
no longer any ambiguity over when users can first start to query

When creating new onscreen framebuffers we need to take the
configuration in cogl terms and translate that into a configuration
applicable to any given winsys, e.g. an EGLConfig or a GLXFBConfig

Also when we first create a context we typically have to do a very
similar thing because most OpenGL winsys APIs also associate a
framebuffer config with the context and all future configs need to be
compatible with that.
This patch introduces an internal CoglFramebufferConfig to wrap up some
of the configuration parameters that are common to CoglOnscreenTemplate
and to CoglFramebuffer so we aim to re-use code when dealing with the
above two problems.

As part of the on going, incremental effort to purge the non type safe
CoglHandle type from the Cogl API this patch tackles most of the
CoglHandle uses relating to textures.
We'd postponed making this change for quite a while because we wanted to
have a clearer understanding of how we wanted to evolve the texture APIs
towards Cogl 2.0 before exposing type safety here which would be
difficult to change later since it would imply breaking APIs.
The basic idea that we are steering towards now is that CoglTexture
can be considered to be the most primitive interface we have for any
object representing a texture. The texture interface would provide
roughly these methods:
cogl_texture_get_width
cogl_texture_get_height
cogl_texture_can_repeat
cogl_texture_can_mipmap
cogl_texture_generate_mipmap;
cogl_texture_get_format
cogl_texture_set_region
cogl_texture_get_region
Besides the texture interface we will then start to expose types
corresponding to specific texture types: CoglTexture2D,
CoglTexture3D, CoglTexture2DSliced, CoglSubTexture, CoglAtlasTexture and
CoglTexturePixmapX11.
We will then also expose an interface for the high-level texture types
we have (such as CoglTexture2DSlice, CoglSubTexture and
CoglAtlasTexture) called CoglMetaTexture. CoglMetaTexture is an
additional interface that lets you iterate a virtual region of a meta
texture and get mappings of primitive textures to sub-regions of that
virtual region. Internally we already have this kind of abstraction for
dealing with sliced texture, sub-textures and atlas textures in a
consistent way, so this will just make that abstraction public. The aim
here is to clarify that there is a difference between primitive textures
(CoglTexture2D/3D) and some of the other high-level textures, and also
enable developers to implement primitives that can support meta textures
since they can only be used with the cogl_rectangle API currently.
The thing that's not so clean-cut with this are the texture constructors
we have currently; such as cogl_texture_new_from_file which no longer
make sense when CoglTexture is considered to be an interface. These
will basically just become convenient factory functions and it's just a
bit unusual that they are within the cogl_texture namespace. It's worth
noting here that all the texture type APIs will also have their own type
specific constructors so these functions will only be used for the
convenience of being able to create a texture without really wanting to
know the details of what type of texture you need. Longer term for 2.0
we may come up with replacement names for these factory functions or the
other thing we are considering is designing some asynchronous factory
functions instead since it's so often detrimental to application
performance to be blocked waiting for a texture to be uploaded to the
GPU.

This adds an internal function to set the backface culling state on a
pipeline. This includes properties to set the culling mode (front,
back or both) and also to set which face is considered the front
(COGL_WINDING_CLOCKWISE or COGL_WINDING_COUNTER_CLOCKWISE). The actual
front face flushed to GL depends on whether we are rendering to an
offscreen buffer or not. This means that when changing between on- and
off- screen framebuffers it now checks whether the last flushed
pipeline has backface culling enabled and forces a reflush of the cull
face state if so.
The backface culling is now set on a pipeline as part of the legacy
state. This is important because some code in Cogl assumes it can
flush a temporary pipeline to revert to a known state, but previously
this wouldn't disable backface culling so things such as flushing the
clip stack could get confused.

When changing between two framebuffers that have different color masks
it now forces the pipeline to flush the mask by setting
current_pipeline_changes_since_flush. For this to work there needs to
be a common bit of code that gets called when the framebuffers are
changed that has access to both the old framebuffer and the new
framebuffer. _cogl_set_framebuffers_real can't be used for this
because when it is called from cogl_pop_framebuffer the stack entries
have already changed so it can't know the old framebuffer. This patch
adds a new function called notify_buffers_changed which should get
called whenever the buffers are changed and it explicitly gets passed
pointers to the old and new buffers. cogl_pop_framebuffer now calls
this instead of trying to use _cogl_set_framebuffers_real to force a
flush.
This patch also fixes the ctx->window_buffer pointer. Previously this
was implemented by searching in the framebuffer stack for an onscreen
framebuffer whenever the current buffers are changed. However it does
this after the stack has already changed so it won't usually find the

The GL or GLES library is now dynamically loaded by the CoglRenderer
so that it can choose between GL, GLES1 and GLES2 at runtime. The
library is loaded by the renderer because it needs to be done before
calling eglInitialize. There is a new environment variable called
COGL_DRIVER to choose between gl, gles1 or gles2.
The #ifdefs for HAVE_COGL_GL, HAVE_COGL_GLES and HAVE_COGL_GLES2 have
been changed so that they don't assume the ifdefs are mutually
exclusive. They haven't been removed entirely so that it's possible to
compile the GLES backends without the the enums from the GL headers.
When using GLX the winsys additionally dynamically loads libGL because
that also contains the GLX API. It can't be linked in directly because
that would probably conflict with the GLES API if the EGL is
selected. When compiling with EGL support the library links directly
to libEGL because it doesn't contain any GL API so it shouldn't have
any conflicts.
When building for WGL or OSX Cogl still directly links against the GL
API so there is a #define in config.h so that Cogl won't try to dlopen
the library.
Cogl-pango previously had a #ifdef to detect when the GL backend is
used so that it can sneakily pass GL_QUADS to
cogl_vertex_buffer_draw. This is now changed so that it queries the
CoglContext for the backend. However to get this to work Cogl now
needs to export the _cogl_context_get_default symbol and cogl-pango
needs some extra -I flags to so that it can include
cogl-context-private.h
cogl-ext-functions.h now contains definitions for all of the core GL
and GLES functions that we would normally link to directly. All of the
code has changed to access them through the cogl context pointer. The
GE macro now takes an extra parameter to specify the context because
the macro itself needs to make GL calls but various points in the Cogl
source use different names for the context variable.
Instead of storing all of the feature function pointers in the driver
specific data of the CoglContext they are now all stored directly in
CoglContext. There is a single header containing the description of
the functions which gets included by cogl-context.h. There is a single
function in cogl-feature-private.c to check for all of these
functions.
The name of the function pointer variables have been changed from
ctx->drv.pf_glWhatever to just ctx->glWhatever.
The feature flags that get set when an extension is available are now
separated from the table of extensions. This is necessary because
different extensions can mean different things on GLES and GL. For
example, having access to glMapBuffer implies read and write support
on GL but only write support on GLES. The flags are instead set in the
driver specific init function by checking whether the function
pointers were successfully resolved.
_cogl_feature_check has been changed to assume the feature is
supported if any of the listed extensions are available instead of
requiring all of them. This makes it more convenient to specify
alternate names for the extension. Nothing else had previously listed
more than one name for an extension so this shouldn't cause any
problems.

_cogl_framebuffer_get_red/green/blue/alpha_bits() functions as 2.0

Instead of the stub winsys being a special case set of #ifdef'd code
used when COGL_HAS_FULL_WINSYS wasn't defined, the stub winsys now
implements a CoglWinsysVtable like all other winsys backends (it's just
that everything is a NOP). This way we can get rid of the
COGL_HAS_FULL_WINSYS define and also the stub winsys can be runtime
selected whereas before it was incompatible with all other winsys
backends.
This validates that the viewport width and height arguments are positive
values in _cogl_framebuffer_set_viewport. In addition, just before
calling glViewport we also assert that something else hasn't gone amiss
and that the internal viewport width/height values we track are still
positive before passing to glViewport which generates an error for
negative values.
With GLES 1, frame buffers are a optional extensions. We need to make
sure the pointer exist before calling the function and do that by just
checkout the corresponding feature.
When freeing a framebuffer stack it's possible to have entries with NULL
draw or read buffers so we should check that before calling
cogl_onscreen/offscreen_free. This fixes a crash with the wayland
backend when running conformance tests such as cogl-test-object which
never push a framebuffer.
Some of the virtual functions in CoglWinsysVtable only need to be
implemented for specific backends or when a specific feature is
advertised. This splits the vtable struct into two commented sections
marking which are optional and which are required. Wherever an
optional function is used there is now a g_return_if_fail to ensure
there is an implementation.
If a foreign xid has been set on a CoglOnscreen then
cogl_onscreen_x11_get_window_xid doesn't need to defer to the winsys to
get the underlying window xid. This also means it's possible to read
back the xid before the framebuffer is allocated which fixes a crash in
the x11-foreign example app.
This extends cogl_onscreen_x11_set_foreign_xid to take a callback to a
function that details the event mask the Cogl requires the application
to select on foreign windows. This is required because Cogl, for
example, needs to track size changes of a window and may also in the
future want other notifications such as map/unmap.
Most applications wont need to use the foreign xwindow apis, but those
that do are required to pass a valid callback and update the event mask
of their window according to Cogl's requirements.
This adds Cogl API to show and hide onscreen framebuffers. We don't want
to go too far down the road of abstracting window system APIs with Cogl
since that would be out of its scope but the previous idea that we would
automatically map framebuffers on allocation except for those made from
foreign windows wasn't good enough. The problem is that we don't want to
make Clutter always create stages from foreign windows but with the
automatic map semantics then Clutter doesn't get an opportunity to
select for all the events it requires before mapping. This meant that we
wouldn't be delivered a mouse enter event for windows mapped underneath
the cursor which would break Clutters handling of button press events.
So that we can dynamically select what winsys backend to use at runtime
we need to have some indirection to how code accesses the winsys instead
of simply calling _cogl_winsys* functions that would collide if we
wanted to compile more than one backend into Cogl.
It's generally useful to be able to query the width and height of a
framebuffer and we expect to need this in Clutter when we move the
eglnative backend code into Cogl since Clutter will need to read back
the fixed size of the framebuffer when realizing the stage.
This migrates all the GLX window system code down from the Clutter
backend code into a Cogl winsys. Moving OpenGL window system binding
code down from Clutter into Cogl is the biggest blocker to having Cogl
become a standalone 3D graphics library, so this is an important step in
that direction.
This gives us a way to clearly track the internal Cogl API that Clutter
depends on. The aim is to split Cogl out from Clutter into a standalone
3D graphics API and eventually we want to get rid of any private
interfaces for Clutter so its useful to have a handle on that task.
Actually it's not as bad as I was expecting though.
This renames the two internal functions _cogl_get_draw/read_buffer
as cogl_get_draw_framebuffer and _cogl_get_read_framebuffer. The
former is now also exposed as experimental API.
The long term goal with the Cogl API is that we will get rid of the
default global context. As a step towards this, this patch tracks a
reference back to the context in each CoglFramebuffer so in a lot of
cases we can avoid using the _COGL_GET_CONTEXT macro.
Recently _cogl_swap_buffers_notify was added (in 142b229c5c) so that
Cogl would be notified when Clutter performs a swap buffers request for
a given onscreen framebuffer. It was expected this would be required for
the recent cogl_read_pixel optimization that was implemented (ref
1bdb0e6e98) but in the end it wasn't used.
Since it wasn't used in the end this patch removes the API.
