    Use packed enums for the texture types and targets, part 1

In OpenGL there are two enum "sets" used by the API that are very
similar: texture types (or bind point) and texture targets. They only
differ in that texture types have GL_TEXTURE_CUBEMAP and target have
GL_TEXTURE_CUBEMAP_[POSITIVE|NEGATIVE]_[X|Y|Z].

This is a problem because in ANGLE we use GLenum to pass around both
types of data, making it difficult to know which of type and target a
variable is.

In addition these enums are placed somewhat randomly in the space of
OpenGL enums, making it slow to have a mapping from texture types to
some data. Such a mapping is in hot-code with gl::State::mTextures.

This commit stack makes the texture types and target enums be
translated to internal packed enums right at the OpenGL entry point
and used throughout ANGLE to have type safety and performance gains.

This is the first of two commit which does the refactor for all of the
validation and stops inside gl::Context. This was the best place to
split patches without having many conversions from packed enums to GL
enums.

  • ANGLE - Almost Native Graphics Layer Engine

    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 and 3.0 to desktop OpenGL, OpenGL ES, Direct3D 9, and Direct3D 11. Support for translation from OpenGL ES to Vulkan is underway, and future plans include compute shader support (ES 3.1) and MacOS support.

    ANGLE v1.0.772 was certified compliant by passing the ES 2.0.3 conformance tests in October 2011. ANGLE also provides an implementation of the EGL 1.4 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, Direct3D HLSL, and even ESSL for native GLES2 platforms.
