Neil Roberts a3989d035e Fix removing layers when the pipeline is not the owner
If cogl_pipeline_remove_layer is called on a copied pipeline to remove
a parent layer then it will still end up calling
_cogl_pipeline_remove_layer_difference on the layer. This function
was directly trying to remove the layer from the pipeline's list of
layer differences. However in the child pipeline the layer isn't in
the list because it is unchanged from its parent. The function had an
assertion to verify that this situation wasn't hit so in a debug build
it would just bail out.

This patch removes the assertion and changes it to only remove the
layer if it is owned by the pipeline. Otherwise it just sets the
COGL_PIPELINE_STATE_LAYERS difference as normal and decrements the
number of layers. This will cause it to successfully remove the layer
because either it is the last layer in which case it will be ignored
after n_layers is decreased or if it is in the middle of the list then
the subsequent layers will all be shifted down so there will be a
replacement layer difference.

Outline of test categories:

The conform/ tests:
-------------------
These tests should be non-interactive unit-tests that verify a single
feature is behaving as documented. See conform/ADDING_NEW_TESTS for more
details.

Although it may seem a bit awkward; all the tests are built into a
single binary because it makes building the tests *much* faster by avoiding
lots of linking.

Each test has a wrapper script generated though so running the individual tests
should be convenient enough. Running the wrapper script will also print out for
convenience how you could run the test under gdb or valgrind like this for
example:

  NOTE: For debugging purposes, you can run this single test as follows:
  $ libtool --mode=execute \
            gdb --eval-command="b test_cogl_depth_test" \
            --args ./test-conformance -p /conform/cogl/test_cogl_depth_test
  or:
  $ env G_SLICE=always-malloc \
    libtool --mode=execute \
            valgrind ./test-conformance -p /conform/cogl/test_cogl_depth_test

By default the conformance tests are run offscreen. This makes the tests run
much faster and they also don't interfere with other work you may want to do by
constantly stealing focus. CoglOnscreen framebuffers obviously don't get tested
this way so it's important that the tests also get run onscreen every once in a
while, especially if changes are being made to CoglFramebuffer related code.
Onscreen testing can be enabled by setting COGL_TEST_ONSCREEN=1 in your
environment.

The micro-bench/ tests:
-----------------------
These should be focused performance tests, ideally testing a
single metric. Please never forget that these tests are synthetic and if you
are using them then you understand what metric is being tested. They probably
don't reflect any real world application loads and the intention is that you
use these tests once you have already determined the crux of your problem and
need focused feedback that your changes are indeed improving matters. There is
no exit status requirements for these tests, but they should give clear
feedback as to their performance. If the framerate is the feedback metric, then
the test should forcibly enable FPS debugging.

The data/ directory:
--------------------
This contains optional data (like images) that can be referenced by a test.


Misc notes:
-----------
• All tests should ideally include a detailed description in the source
explaining exactly what the test is for, how the test was designed to work,
and possibly a rationale for the approach taken for testing.

• When running tests under Valgrind, you should follow the instructions
available here:

        http://live.gnome.org/Valgrind

and also use the suppression file available inside the data/ directory.
