This optimizes the layer and pipeline _compare_differences functions so
neither of them use the GArray api since building up the list of
ancestors by appending to a shared GArray was showing quite high on
profiles due to how frequently pipeline comparisons are made. Instead
we now build up a transient, singly linked list by allocating GList
nodes via alloca to build up the parallel lists of ancestors.
This tweaked approach actually ends up being a bit more concise than
before, we avoid the overhead of the GArray api and now avoid making any
function calls while comparing (assuming the _get_parent() calls always
inline), we avoiding needing to get the default cogl context.

This splits out the core CoglPipelineLayer support code from
cogl-pipeline.c into cogl-pipeline-layer.c; it splits out the debugging
code for dumping a pipeline to a .dot file into cogl-pipeline-debug.c
and it splits the CoglPipelineNode support which is shared between
CoglPipeline and CoglPipelineLayer into cogl-node.c.
Note: cogl-pipeline-layer.c only contains the layer code directly
relating to CoglPipelineLayer objects; it does not contain any
_cogl_pipeline API relating to how CoglPipeline tracks and manipulates
layers.
This avoids using sscanf to determine the texture_unit that a
tex_coord%d_in attribute name corresponds to since that was showing high
on profiles. Instead once we know we have a "tex_coord" name then we
can simply use strtoul which is much cheaper and use the returned endptr
we get to verify we have a "_in" suffix after the number.

We've started seeing cases where we want to allocate lots of one-shot
primitives per-frame and the cost of allocating primitives becomes
important in this case since it can start being noticeable in profiles.
The main cost for allocating primitives was the GArray allocation
and appending the attributes to the array. This updates the code to
simply over allocate the primitive storage so we can embed the list
of attributes directly in that allocation.
If the user later sets new attributes and there isn't enough embedded
space then a separate slice allocation for the new attributes is made
but still this should be far less costly than using a GArray as before.
Most of the time we would expect when setting new attributes there will
still be the same number of attributes, so the embedded space can simple
be reused.

Calling g_strdup for attribute names was starting to show up in profiles
due to calling malloc for new string storage so frequently. This avoids
calling g_strdup and calls g_intern_string() instead. For the really

can trivially relate our internal name_id to a static string.

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
right buffer.

Some code in Cogl such as when flushing a stencil clip assumes that it
can push a temporary simple pipeline to reset to a known state for
internal drawing operations. However this breaks down if the
application has set any legacy state because that is set globally so
it will also get applied to the internal pipeline.
_cogl_draw_attributes already had an internal flag to disable applying
the legacy state but I think this is quite awkward to use because not
all places that push a pipeline draw the attribute buffers directly so
it is difficult to pass the flag down through the layers.
Conceptually the legacy state is meant to be like a layer on top of
the purely pipeline-based state API so I think ideally we should have
an internal function to push the source without the applying the
legacy state. The legacy state can't be applied as the pipeline is
pushed because the global state can be modified even after it is
pushed. This patch adds a _cogl_push_source() function which takes an
extra boolean flag to mark whether to enable the legacy state. The
value of this flag is stored alongside the pipeline in the pipeline
stack. Another new internal function called
_cogl_get_enable_legacy_state queries whether the top entry in the
pipeline stack has legacy state enabled. cogl-primitives and the
vertex array drawing code now use this to determine whether to apply
the legacy state when drawing. The COGL_DRAW_SKIP_LEGACY_STATE flag is
now removed.

into consideration the underlying driver/hw vendor and driver version

Nvidia.
