Currently the GPU module for python has different ways to handle enums.
- Organizing items in `PyC_StringEnumItems` arrays and parsing them with `PyC_ParseStringEnum`.
- Using dedicated functions for each type of enum (`bpygpu_ParsePrimType`, `pygpu_ParseVertCompType` and `pygpu_ParseVertFetchMode`).
Although apparently more efficient (especially `pygpu_ParseVertCompType`
which transforms strings into integers for simple comparison), these
dedicated functions duplicate functionality, increase the complexity of
the code and consequently make it less readable.

BF-admins agree to remove header information that isn't useful,
to reduce noise.
- BEGIN/END license blocks
Developers should add non license comments as separate comment blocks.
No need for separator text.
- Contributors
This is often invalid, outdated or misleading
especially when splitting files.
It's more useful to git-blame to find out who has developed the code.
See P901 for script to perform these edits.
Mixing file rename with other changes should be avoided.
Using 'module_py_api' convention here
is in keeping with imbuf, idprop, blf & bmesh.
No reason for gpu to have a different convention.
Instead of crashing, an error message is displayed if a function of the gpu module is called without a GPU context.

The changes are:
- The shader now is passed as a parameter of the batch `draw` method (batch.draw(shader)). Since the batch always has to set a shader before drawing;
- The batch methods to specify a value to a uniform have been removed. Uniforms are parameters of the program (here called shader). If you change a uniform, it changes in all batchs that use the same program;
- New methods were added to set uniforms by the shader;
- The `batch.program_set_builtin` was removed. It is a duplicate of `program_set` but without a shader object. We need the shader object to configure the uniform;

Maybe it's still early to set the new drawing api for python.
But joining these two modules is an initial step.
```
>>> gpu.
matrix
select
types
```
```
>>> gpu.types.GPU
Batch(
OffScreen(
VertBuf(
VertFormat(
```
The creation of a new offscreen object is now done by the `GPUOffscreen.__new__` method.
