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.

The crate example uses the cogl_pango API and perviously we just
explicitly said to link with the libcogl-pango.la but that doesn't seem
to be enough (not really sure why since libtool should know the required
dependencies to brining in for linking) so we now pass
$(COGL_PANGO_DEP_LIBS) when linking the crate demo.

When using glib-android, it's not possible to select parts of the

Only cogl-pango needs a dependency on pangocairo so we are now careful to
separate the pangocairo pkg-config flags from the others so we can avoid
having libcogl builds refer to them.

This test wasn't actually explicitly clearing the background to black
it was simply a fluke that some drivers clear the background when
allocating a new framebuffer.

For cogl 2.0 we don't want to have a default context. In the meantime
we can simply assume that calling cogl_context_new() implicitly
sets that context as the default context before returning.

There were several CoglOnscreen functions named like:
cogl_onscreen_<platform>_blah instead of cogl_<platform>_onscreen_blah
so this patch updates those to be consistent with other platform
specific apis we have in cogl.

we've got into a bit of a mess with how we name platform specific
symbols and files, so this is a first pass at trying to tidy that up.
All platform specific symbols should be named like
cogl_<platform>_symbol_name and similarly files should be named like
cogl-<platform>-filename.c

This update the x11-foreign test so that it checks for events on its X
display and forwards them on to Cogl. It will now also quit if any key
of button is pressed.
The x11-foreign example directly uses the X11 API at it seems that more
recent versions of binutils complain if we don't directly link the test
with libX11 as opposed to relying on indirect linkage via cogl.
This adds an example cogl compositor to test the
_cogl_wayland_texture_2d_new_from_buffer API. The compositor emulates 4
output displays but doesn't support input since Cogl doesn't deal with
input. It's quite a minimal example of what it takes to write a wayland
compositor so could be interesting to anyone learning about wayland.
Actually calling cogl_set_default_context isn't required because
cogl_context_new implicitly sets the new context to be the default
context. Since we want to eventually get rid of the concept of a default
context we'd rather not pollute the example with the concept.
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.
This adds a simple standalone Cogl application that can be used to
smoke test a standalone build of Cogl without Clutter.
This also adds an x11-foreign app that shows how a toolkit can ask Cogl
to draw to an X Window that it owns instead of Cogl being responsible
for automatically creating and mapping an X Window for CoglOnscreen.
