This introduces the internal idea of texture loaders that track the
state for loading and allocating a texture. This defers a lot more work
until the texture is allocated.
There are several intentions to this change:
- provides a means for extending how textures are allocated without
requiring all the parameters to be supplied in a single _texture_new()
function call.
- allow us to remove the internal_format argument from all
_texture_new() apis since using CoglPixelFormat is bad way of
expressing the internal format constraints because it is too specific.
For now the internal_format arguments haven't actually been removed
but this patch does introduce replacement apis for controlling the
internal format:
cogl_texture_set_components() lets you specify what components your
texture needs when it is allocated.
cogl_texture_set_premultiplied() lets you specify whether a texture
data should be interpreted as premultiplied or not.
- Enable us to support asynchronous texture loading + allocation in the
future.
Of note, the _new_from_data() texture constructors all continue to
allocate textures immediately so that existing code doesn't need to be
adapted to manage the lifetime of the data being uploaded.

Note: Compared to the original patch, the ->premultipled state for
textures isn't forced to be %TRUE in _cogl_texture_init since that
effectively ignores the users explicitly given internal_format which was
a mistake and on master that change should have been made in the patch
that followed. The gtk-doc comments for cogl_texture_set_premultiplied()
and cogl_texture_set_components() have also been updated in-line with
this fix.
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 several utility apis that aim to make it as easy as possible
for an application to determine what size a video should be drawn at.
The important detail here is that these apis take into account the
pixel-aspect-ratio in addition to the video's own aspect ratio.
This patch updates the cogl-basic-video-player example to use the
cogl_gst_video_sink_fit_size() api to perform letterboxing.

CoglGst is a GStreamer integration library that facilitates
video playback using the Cogl API. It works by retrieving
each video frame from the GStreamer pipeline and attaching
it to a Cogl pipeline in the form of a Cogl texture along
with possible color model conversion shaders. The pipeline
is then retrieved by the user during each draw. An example
use of the CoglGst API is included in the examples directory.
