92c3063014 framebuffer: Add cogl_framebuffer draw methods
This adds cogl_framebuffer_ apis for drawing attributes and primitives
that replace corresponding apis that depend on the default CoglContext.
This is part of the on going effort to adapt the Cogl api so it no
longer depends on a global context variable.

All the new drawing functions also take an explicit pipeline argument
since we are also aiming to avoid being a stateful api like Cairo and
OpenGL. Being stateless makes it easier for orthogonal components to
share access to the GPU. Being stateless should also minimize any
impedance miss-match for those wanting to build higher level stateless
apis on top of Cogl.

Note: none of the legacy, global state options such as
cogl_set_depth_test_enabled(), cogl_set_backface_culling_enabled() or
cogl_program_use() are supported by these new drawing apis and if set
will simply be silently ignored.

60ab0c0a6c framebuffer: Remove _EXP symbol mangling and add gtk-doc
We are in the process of removing all _EXP suffix mangling for
experimental APIs (Ref: c6528c4b6c) and adding missing gtk-doc
comments so that we can instead rely on the "Stability: unstable"
markers in the gtk-doc comments. This patch tackles the cogl framebuffer
symbols.

6bb409e996 framebuffer: Add CoglFramebuffer clip stack methods
This adds CoglFramebuffer methods for accessing the clip stack. We plan
on making some optimizations to how framebuffer state is flushed which
will require us to track when a framebuffer's clip state has changed.

This api also ties in to the longer term goal of removing the need for a
default global CoglContext since these methods are all implicitly
related to a specific context via their framebuffer argument.

ccde191191 framebuffer: Add CoglFramebuffer matrix stack methods
This adds cogl_framebuffer_ methods to update the modelview and
projection matrix stacks to replace functions like cogl_translate(),
cogl_rotate() and cogl_scale() etc.

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.

79719347c8 framebuffer: split out CoglOnscreen code
This factors out the CoglOnscreen code from cogl-framebuffer.c so we now
have cogl-onscreen.c, cogl-onscreen.h and cogl-onscreen-private.h.
Notably some of the functions pulled out are currently namespaced as
cogl_framebuffer but we know we are planning on renaming them to be in
the cogl_onscreen namespace; such as cogl_framebuffer_swap_buffers().

a8efe6af06 framebuffer: Adds experimental _finish() API
This adds a new experimental function, cogl_framebuffer_finish(), which
can be used to explicitly synchronize the CPU with the GPU. It's rare
that this level of explicit synchronization is desirable but for example
it can be useful during performance analysys to make sure measurements
reflect the working time of the GPU not just the time to queue commands.

dd7b16faf2 offscreen: Adds support for offscreen multisampling
This adds support for multisample rendering to offscreen framebuffers.
After an offscreen framebuffer is first instantiated using
cogl_offscreen_new_to_texture() it is then possible to use
cogl_framebuffer_set_samples_per_pixel() to request multisampling before
the framebuffer is allocated. This also adds
cogl_framebuffer_resolve_samples() for explicitly resolving point
samples into pixels. Even though we currently only support the
IMG_multisampled_render_to_texture extension which doesn't require an
explicit resolve, the plan is to also support the
EXT_framebuffer_multisample extension which uses the framebuffer_blit
extension to issue an explicit resolve.

63461c0f8b framebuffer: Add explicit buffer discard API
This adds cogl_framebuffer_discard_buffers API that allows applications
to explicitly discard depth and stencil buffers which really helps when
using a tile based GPU architexture by potentially avoiding the need to
save the results of depth and stencil buffer changes to system memory
between frames since these can usually be handled directly with on-chip
memory instead.

The semantics for cogl_framebuffer_swap_buffers and
cogl_framebuffer_swap_region are now documented to include an implicit
discard of all buffers, including the color buffer.

We now recommend that all rendering to a CoglOffscreen framebuffer
should be followed by a call like:
cogl_framebuffer_discard_buffers (fb,
                                  COGL_BUFFER_BIT_DEPTH|
                                  COGL_BUFFER_BIT_STENCIL);

3a2f94045e framebuffer: make _swap_region coords top-left relative
Cogl aims to consistently put the origin of 2D objects at the top-left
instead of the bottom left as OpenGL does, but there was an oversight
and the experimental cogl_framebuffer_swap_region API was accepting
coordinates relative to the bottom left. Cogl will now flip the user's
given rectangles to be relative to the bottom of the framebufffer before
sending them to APIs like glXCopySubBuffer and glBlitFramebuffer.

a3ad808f57 framebuffer: Make framebuffer_clear APIs public experimental
This makes cogl_framebuffer_clear and cogl_framebuffer_clear4f public as
experimental API. Since these functions take explicit framebuffer
pointers you don't need to push/pop a framebuffer just to clear it. Also
these functions are implicitly tied to a specific CoglContext via the
framebuffer pointer unlike cogl_clear.

This adds CoglPipeline and CoglFramebuffer support for setting a color
mask which is a bit mask defining which color channels should be written

The final color mask is the intersection of the framebuffer color mask
and the pipeline color mask. The framebuffer mask affects all rendering
to the framebuffer while the pipeline masks can be used to affect
individual primitives.

3ed8c8d0ba framebuffer: Add dither_enabled getter/setters
This adds a getter and setter for requesting dithering to be enabled.

Dithering is a hardware dependent technique to increase the visible
color resolution beyond what the underlying hardware supports by playing
tricks with the colors placed into the framebuffer to give the illusion
of other colors. (For example this can be compared to half-toning used
by some news papers to show varying levels of grey even though their may
only be black and white are available).

The results of enabling dithering are platform dependent and may have no
effect.

2282455f27 wayland: Allow setting foreign display/compositor
To support toolkits targeting wayland and using Cogl we allow toolkits
to be responsible for connecting to a wayland display and asking Cogl to
use the toolkit owned display and compositor object. Note: eventually
the plan is that wayland will allow retrospective querying of objects so
we won't need the foreign compositor API when Cogl can simply query it
from the foreign display.

442d4586b7 win32: Use the right macro name for COGL_HAS_WIN32_SUPPORT
Some places were using COGL_HAS_WIN32 but the only macro defined is
COGL_HAS_WIN32_SUPPORT. The similar macros such as COGL_HAS_XLIB are
only defined for compatibility with existing code but COGL_HAS_WIN32
was never defined so there's no need to support it.

One of the places was including the non-existant cogl-win32.h. This
has been removed because the file only temporarily existed during
development of the backend.

6c23f27801 Adds a way for Cogl to control event_mask of foreign wins
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.

97243ad9ac Adds cogl_onscreen_show/hide functions
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.
