This is a bit slower on map_and_* because of flushing and _very_ much slower on buffer(sub)?data because of a new memcpy.
But this design allow us to decode directly into a gpu buffer, eg vertexloader will profit :)
gl.h and glext.h provide most of the function pointer typedefs and defines for extensions and core features.
The only one it doesn't provide is GL 1.1 function typedefs, but this is to be expected.
If anything needs defines or typedefs in their header in the future, that's as easy as before.
This one was introduced to reduce the glBindTexture and glActiveTexture calls. But it was quite a bit of logic and only an improvment on uploading/creating a texture, which is done rarely.
This adds xfb support to the videosoftware backend, which increases it's
accuracy and more imporantly, enables the usage of many homebrew apps
which write directly to the xfb on the videosoftware backend.

This branch is the final step of fully supporting both OpenGL and OpenGL ES in the same binary.
This of course only applies to EGL and won't work for GLX/AGL/WGL since they don't really support GL ES.
The changes here actually aren't too terrible, basically change every #ifdef USE_GLES to a runtime check.
This adds a DetectMode() function to the EGL context backend.
EGL will iterate through each of the configs and check for GL, GLES3_KHR, and GLES2 bits
After that it'll change the mode from _DETECT to whichever one is the best supported.
After that point we'll just create a context with the mode that was detected
We are used to render them out of order as long as everything else matches, but rendering order does matter, so we have to flush on primitive switch. This commit implements this flush.
Also as we flush on primitive switch, we don't have to create three different index buffers. All indices are now stored in one buffer.
This will slow down games which switch often primitive types (eg ztp), but it should be more accurate.
add the GL include (back) to Base.props
use a similar technique to GLX.cpp (by Sonic) in WGL.cpp to get
wglSwapIntervalEXT without the WGLEW check

This "u32 components" is a list of flags which attributes of the vertex loader are present.
We are used to append this variable to lots of vertex generation functions, but some of them don't need it at all.
The usual way to handle this kind of request is to rise a flag which the gpu thread polls.
The gpu thread itself either generates the result or just write zeros if disabled.
After this, it rise another flag which says that this work is done.
So if disabled, we still have the cpu-gpu round trip time. This commit just returns 0 on the cpu thread
instead of playing ping pong...
fixes issue 6898
OpenGL defaults are GL_REPEAT, which is even more unlikely than GL_CLAMP_TO_EDGE.
As I can't test the behavoir of the real hardware, I changed it to how it works before,
but I guess just clip the texture makes more sense.
