Improves rendering performance, esp. for large designs by:
- using a separate glDrawArrays calls() for large buffers of contiguous vertices (e.g. large zone fills)
- pooling smaller items into a small-sized index buffer held in system RAM (has to be DMAed to the GPU by the driver anyway)
Previously, the count of segments used a magic number optimized for Pcbnew.
This is not good, and does not work well on Gerbview.
The count uses now a max error acceptable is approximation (5 microns in Gerbview and Pcbnew).

Avoid fractional pixel offsets by forcing integer division of m_screenSize.
Shift rounded lookAtPoint onto OpenGL pixel center to ensure consistent rounding to int.
The pixel 0..1 @ 1x needs to fill the area 0..2 @ 2x so its center moves by 0.5 * (pixel size @ 1x).
The native cursor must be set on the GAL canvas wx object,
not its frame (otherwise on GTK the cursor is only set
when we get a request for it from the WM and not immediately).

Vertex memory allocation uses malloc and realloc without checking the
result. Throw exceptions that can be caught in the DoRepaint() method
in EDA_DRAW_PANEL_GAL when malloc and realloc return a null pointer.
On non-Unix, the platform selection is in platform.h, not on the command
line using the preprocessor macros from wx-config.
<wx/setup.h> relies on the platform being selected correctly, if it is
included directly, it cannot determine the correct configuration with
Visual Studio.
wxWidgets 3.1.5+ on Linux will compile with the Wayland EGL
canvas as the backend instead of the X11 backend. This requires a
version of GLEW compiled with the proper EGL defines and a different
header/code for certain parts that are X11 GLEW specific.
This introduces an in-tree version of GLEW that will be built with the
GLEW_EGL flag then statically linked into the KiCad executables when
EGL support is needed.
On platforms with limited framebuffer attachments, like GC7000L
driven by the open source etnaviv driver, we can still use
GPU acceleration by drawing directly to the main buffer.
EDA_DRAW_PANEL_GAL::onPaint checks if an overlay target is
available in the GAL, and if not, redraws the whole view if the
overlay target should be dirty.
Clearing of the overlay target is a no-op if there is no overlay
buffer.

- New public static function OPENGL_GAL::CheckFeatures() gets called in EDA_DRAW_PANEL_GAL::SwitchBackend() before switching to OPENGL_GAL
- Moved all OpenGL feature checks from OPENGL_GAL constructor to OPENGL_GAL::init()
Fixes https://gitlab.com/kicad/code/kicad/-/issues/4714
Swap syncs can limit the redraw rate as the screen waits for previously
issued syncs. Setting this to -1 allows for adaptive swapping
(resorting to unsynced if it falls behind) if it is supported by the
card but will fall back to unsynced (0) if the adaptive is not
supported.

gal: pixel alignment for Cairo.
gal: pixel alignment for OpenGL
Cleanup of pixel alignment patches
gal/opengl: more pixel alignment patches:
- works on Retina displays now
- pixel alignment for circles
- correct 1-pixel strokes
- fixed unfinished 1-pixel line ends
GAL: Restore antialiasing options in Cairo
GAL: Fix arc drawing
Removes DrawArcSegment, which drew arcs whose edge was optionally
stroked (a feature that we did not use). Fixes Cairo arc drawing issue
where arcs were not visible in pcbnew.
gal: further cleanup
gal: removed unused shader parameter
Use TesselatePolygon() to draw polygons in Gerbview instead of GLU tesselation, much slower.
Add helper methods in GAL to know if the current GAL engine is Cairo, OpenGL or something else,
useful to optimize drawing code.
Fixes a crash when typing fast in the place footprint filter box.
Also adds a bunch more checking to GAL locking, including making
sure the same person unlocks as locked, and preventing piece-meal
calls (the RAII objects must be used).
