Straightforward port. I took the oportunity to remove some C vector
functions (ex: copy_v2_v2).
This makes some changes to DRWView to accomodate the alignement
requirements of the float4x4 type.

Additional mat3 constructors added, global variable namespace collisions
for uniform and object color avoided via re-name.
Metal vertex format compatibility added for shaders wherein vertex data
goes through a double-conversion and cannot be implicitly converted during
Metal vertex assembly e.g. bitmasks passed directly as unsigned type in
shader interface for certain shader interfaces.

This is a new implementation of the draw manager using modern
rendering practices and GPU driven culling.
This only ports features that are not considered deprecated or to be
removed.
The old DRW API is kept working along side this new one, and does not
interfeer with it. However this needed some more hacking inside the
draw_view_lib.glsl. At least the create info are well separated.
The reviewer might start by looking at `draw_pass_test.cc` to see the
API in usage.
Important files are `draw_pass.hh`, `draw_command.hh`,
`draw_command_shared.hh`.
In a nutshell (for a developper used to old DRW API):
- `DRWShadingGroups` are replaced by `Pass<T>::Sub`.
- Contrary to DRWShadingGroups, all commands recorded inside a pass or
sub-pass (even binds / push_constant / uniforms) will be executed in order.
- All memory is managed per object (except for Sub-Pass which are managed
by their parent pass) and not from draw manager pools. So passes "can"
potentially be recorded once and submitted multiple time (but this is
not really encouraged for now). The only implicit link is between resource
lifetime and `ResourceHandles`
- Sub passes can be any level deep.
- IMPORTANT: All state propagate from sub pass to subpass. There is no
state stack concept anymore. Ensure the correct render state is set before
drawing anything using `Pass::state_set()`.
- The drawcalls now needs a `ResourceHandle` instead of an `Object *`.
This is to remove any implicit dependency between `Pass` and `Manager`.
This was a huge problem in old implementation since the manager did not
know what to pull from the object. Now it is explicitly requested by the
engine.
- The pases need to be submitted to a `draw::Manager` instance which can
be retrieved using `DRW_manager_get()` (for now).
Internally:
- All object data are stored in contiguous storage buffers. Removing a lot
of complexity in the pass submission.
- Draw calls are sorted and visibility tested on GPU. Making more modern
culling and better instancing usage possible in the future.
- Unit Tests have been added for regression testing and avoid most API
breakage.
- `draw::View` now contains culling data for all objects in the scene
allowing caching for multiple views.
- Bounding box and sphere final setup is moved to GPU.
- Some global resources locations have been hardcoded to reduce complexity.
What is missing:
- ~~Workaround for lack of gl_BaseInstanceARB.~~ Done
- ~~Object Uniform Attributes.~~ Done (Not in this patch)
- Workaround for hardware supporting a maximum of 8 SSBO.

* Fixed crash in debug draw code. Apparently this is
only used by PBVH draw?
* Debug draw code can now be forcibly enabled in release
mode (i.e. RelWithDebugInfo) by uncommenting a commented
out #define.
* Fixed colors in debug draw mode.
* PBVH node boxes in debug mode now flash a different color
when they are updated.
This is a complete rewrite of the draw debug drawing module in C++.
It uses `GPUStorageBuf` to store the data to be drawn and use indirect
drawing. This makes it easier to do a mirror API for GPU shaders.
The C++ API class is exposed through `draw_debug.hh` and should be used
when possible in new code.
However, the debug drawing will not work for platform not yet supporting
`GPUStorageBuf`. Also keep in mind that this module must only be used
in debug build for performance and compatibility reasons.
