This fixes some problems which were stopping --disable-glib from
working properly:
• A lot of the public headers were including glib.h. This shouldn't be
necessary because the API doesn't expose any glib types. Otherwise
any apps would require glib in order to get the header.
• The public headers were using G_BEGIN_DECLS. There is now a
replacement macro called COGL_BEGIN_DECLS which is defined in
cogl-types.h.
• A similar fix has been done for G_GNUC_NULL_TERMINATED and
G_GNUC_DEPRECATED.
• The CFLAGS were not including $(builddir)/deps/glib which was
preventing it finding the generated glibconfig.h when building out
of tree.

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.
This adds a new public cogl_texture_rectangle_new_from_foreign()
function so that we can look at removing the generic
cogl_texture_new_from_foreign().

To delimit which symbols were considered experimental we used to use
some preprocessor defines to gives experimental symbols an _EXP suffix
so that anyone monitoring the ABI for changes would easily be able to
discount changes made to clearly experimental functions.
These days we simply rely on the gtk-doc "Stability: unstable"
annotation to serve this purpose because changing the actual symbol name
made it slightly more awkward to debug Cogl using GDB and was an extra
mechanical step we decided we could do without.
This patch removes the last remaining _EXP suffix defines in Cogl

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 public constructors which take a CoglBitmap to all primitive
texture types. This constructor should be considered the canonical
constructor for initializing the texture with data because it should
be possible to wrap any type of data in a CoglBitmap. Having at least
this single constructor avoids the need to have an explosion of
constructors such as new_from_data, new_from_pixel_buffer and
new_from_file etc.
The already available internal bitmap constructor for CoglTexture2D
has had its flags parameter removed under the assumption that flags do
not make sense for primitive textures. The meta constructor
cogl_texture_new_from_bitmap now just explicitly calls set_auto_mipmap
after constructing the texture depending on the value of the
COGL_TEXTURE_NO_AUTO_MIPMAP flag.

This exposes CoglTextureRectangle in the experimental cogl 2.0 api. For
now we just expose a single constructor;
cogl_texture_rectangle_new_with_size() but we can add more later.
This is part of going work to improve our texture apis with more
emphasis on providing low-level access to the varying semantics of
different texture types understood by the gpu instead of only trying to
present a lowest common denominator api.
CoglTextureRectangle is notably useful for never being restricted to
power of two sizes and for being sampled with non-normalized texture
coordinates which can be convenient for use a lookup tables in glsl due
to not needing separate uniforms for mapping normalized coordinates to
texels. Unlike CoglTexture2D though rectangle textures can't have a
mipmap and they only support the _CLAMP_TO_EDGE wrap mode.
Applications wanting to use CoglTextureRectangle should first check
cogl_has_feature (COGL_FEATURE_ID_TEXTURE_RECTANGLE).
