This adds a _cogl_poll_renderer_add_idle api that can be used internally
for queuing an idle callback without needing to make any assumption
about the system mainloop that is being used. This is now used to avoid
having the _cogl_poll_renderer_dispatch() directly check for all kinds of
events to dispatch, and to avoid having the winsys dispatch vfuncs need
to directly know about CoglContext. This means we can now avoid having a
back reference from CoglRenderer to the CoglContext.

This updates the cogl_poll_ apis to allow dispatching events before we
have a CoglContext and to also enables pollfd state to be changed in a
more add-hoc way by different Cogl components by replacing the
winsys->get_poll_info with _cogl_poll_renderer_add/remove_fd functions
and a winsys->get_dispatch_timeout vfunc.
One of the intentions here is that applications should be able to run
their mainloop before creating a CoglContext to potentially get events
relating to CoglOutputs.

It is expected that cogl_sdl_idle() will be called from the
application immediately before blocking in SDL_WaitEvent. However,
dispatching the onscreen events may cause more events to be queued. If
that happens we need to make sure the blocking returns immediately.
This patch makes it post the dummy event that the application chose in
order to make that happen.

Add a CoglFrameInfo object that tracks timing information for frames
that are drawn. We track a frame counter and frame timing information
for each CoglOnscreen. Internally a CoglFrameInfo is automatically
created for each frame, delimited by cogl_onscreen_swap_buffers() or
cogl_onscreen_swap_region() calls.
CoglFrameInfos are delivered to applications via frame event callbacks
that can be registered with a new cogl_onscreen_add_frame_callback()
api. Two initial event types (dispatched on all platforms) have been
defined; a _SYNC event used for throttling the frame rate of
applications and a _COMPLETE event used so signify the end of a frame.
Note: This new _add_frame_callback() api makes the
cogl_onscreen_add_swap_complete_callback() api redundant and so it
should be considered deprecated. Since the _add_swap_complete_callback()
api is still experimental api, we will be looking to quickly migrate
users to the new api so we can remove the old api.

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 api to be able to request that the window system allows a
given onscreen framebuffer to be resizable, and api to add and remove
resize handlers to be called whenever the framebuffer does actually
change size.
The new functions are:
cogl_onscreen_{get,set}_resizable()
cogl_onscreen_{add,remove}_resize_handler()
The examples cogl-hello and cogl-x11-foreign have been updated to use
the new api. To smoke test how Cogl updates the viewport automatically
in response to window resizes the cogl-hello test doesn't explicitly
respond to resize events by setting the viewport and cogl-x11-foreign
responds by setting a viewport that is offset by a quarter of the
window's width/height and half the width and height of the window.

This adds an alternate version of the SDL winsys using the SDL 2 API.
The two versions are mutually exclusive and share the same
CoglWinsysID. Version 2 of SDL fits a little bit better with Cogl
because it supports multiple windows and the video subsystem can be
initialised entirely independently of the rest of the subsystems.
The SDL2 winsys creates an invisible dummy window in order to bind the
GL context after creating the Cogl display. This is similar to how the
X11 winsys's work.
SDL2 seems to support compiling with support for both GL and GLES.
However there doesn't seem to be a way to select between the two
backends outside of SDL. In fact if you do compile them both in it
seems to break down because it will always try to use the window
system functions from the GLES backend because those are filled in
second in the vtable. However when creating the window it will always
prefer to use the GL function to choose a visual. This function gets
confused because the GL backend has not been initialised at that
point. The Cogl backend therefore just leaves it up to SDL to pick a
sensible backend. It will then verify that it picked a GL library
which matches the Cogl driver by checking the string from
glGetString(GL_VERSION).

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.
