This should fix the GL loading errors that occur in some drivers due to
the use of deprecated functions by GLEW. Side benefits are more accurate
auto-completion (deprecated function and symbols don't exist) and faster
pointer loading (less entrypoints to load). In addition it removes an
external library depency, simplifying the build system a bit and
eliminating one set of binary libraries for Windows.
Screen contents are now displayed using textured quads. This can be updated to expose an FBO once an OpenGL backend for when Pica rendering is being worked on. That FBO's texture can then be applied to the quads.
Previously, FBO blitting was used in order to display screen contents, which did not work on OS X. The new textured quad approach is less of a compatibility risk.
I wrote most of this for ppsspp, so I hold full copyright over it.
In addition to the original release in ppsspp, this provides functionality to easily extend e.g. two-dimensional vectors to three-dimensional vectors.
