Robert Bragg d739892a5c primitive: micro optimize primitive allocations
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.
