Vulkan: Add ThreadSafeCommandQueue class This is preparation CL for the next few CLs. Instead of having RendererVk owns mCommandQueueMutex and takes lock before calling CommandQueue APIs, this CL creates a ThreadSafeCommandQueue wrapper class that wraps CommandQueue class' public APIs with a mMutex. Right now this is purely a mechanical change, expecting no real functional or behavior differences. But in the future CLs, we are going to implement some APIs without holding lock while doing the wait. This also conceptually cleaner that a mutex lock should protect data not methods. Because of this, this CL also adds OneOffCommandPool class to wrap around all oneoff command buffers with its own lock. The same change also applied to CommandProcessor class by adding a ThreadSafeCommandProcessor class (this will be removed in later CLs). This CL also removes CommandQueueInterface base class and made all these virtual functions no longer virtual, thus reduces the overhead associate with calling virtual functions.

The goal of ANGLE is to allow users of multiple operating systems to seamlessly run WebGL and other OpenGL ES content by translating OpenGL ES API calls to one of the hardware-supported APIs available for that platform. ANGLE currently provides translation from OpenGL ES 2.0, 3.0 and 3.1 to Vulkan, desktop OpenGL, OpenGL ES, Direct3D 9, and Direct3D 11. Future plans include ES 3.2, translation to Metal and MacOS, Chrome OS, and Fuchsia support.

Additionally, OpenGL ES 1.1 is implemented in the front-end using OpenGL ES 3.0 features. This version of the specification is thus supported on all platforms specified above that support OpenGL ES 3.0 with known issues.

ANGLE v1.0.772 was certified compliant by passing the OpenGL ES 2.0.3 conformance tests in October 2011.
ANGLE has received the following certifications with the Vulkan backend:
ANGLE also provides an implementation of the EGL 1.5 specification.
ANGLE is used as the default WebGL backend for both Google Chrome and Mozilla Firefox on Windows platforms. Chrome uses ANGLE for all graphics rendering on Windows, including the accelerated Canvas2D implementation and the Native Client sandbox environment.
Portions of the ANGLE shader compiler are used as a shader validator and translator by WebGL implementations across multiple platforms. It is used on Mac OS X, Linux, and in mobile variants of the browsers. Having one shader validator helps to ensure that a consistent set of GLSL ES shaders are accepted across browsers and platforms. The shader translator can be used to translate shaders to other shading languages, and to optionally apply shader modifications to work around bugs or quirks in the native graphics drivers. The translator targets Desktop GLSL, Vulkan GLSL, Direct3D HLSL, and even ESSL for native GLES2 platforms.
