The main usage of ShaderManager::isValid was to have OpenGL2 specific
code pathes. Now we have an actual OpenGL2Compositing type and we know
that the ShaderManager is valid if we have this compositing type and we
know that it is not valid on OpenGL1Compositing. This gives us a much
better check and allows us to use the isValid method just for where we
want to check whether the shaders compiled successfully.
In addition some effects require OpenGL2, so we do not need to check
again that the ShaderManager is valid. Such usages are removed.
SceneOpenGL turns into an abstract class with two concrete subclasses:
* SceneOpenGL1
* SceneOpenGL2
It provides a factory method which first creates either the GLX or EGL
backend which is passed to a static supported() method in the concrete
sub classes. These method can test whether the backend is sufficient to
be used for the OpenGL version in question. E.g. the OpenGL 2 scene
checks whether the context is direct.
The actual rendering is moved into the subclasses with specific OpenGL 1
and OpenGL 2 code. This should make the code more readable and requires
less checks whether a Shader is bound. This is now known through the
Scene: the OpenGL1 scene will never have a shader bound, the OpenGL2 scene
will always have a shader bound.
To make this more reliable the ShaderManager is extended by a disable
method used by SceneOpenGL1 to ensure that the ShaderManager will never
be used. This also obsoletes the need to read the KWin configuration
whether legacy GL is enabled. The check is moved into the supported
method of the OpenGL2 scene.

This patch adds an optional texture cache to the blur effect such that damaged windows in
front of the blurred region dont trigger a repaint of the whole blurred region which pretty
often results in a avalanche repaint of nearly the whole screen.

If the environment variable KWIN_GL_DEBUG is set to 1
the define KWIN_SHADER_DEBUG is added to the glsl
source code allowing to add some custom ifdefed
visual debug handling.
As an example it's added to scene-fragment.glsl to
paint everything in a greenish way.
The uniforms textureWidth and textureHeight were only needed for
normal windows. For everything else it was just 1.0/1.0, that is
normalized.
The makeArrays method is changed to produce normalized texcoords
obsoleting the need for these uniforms. So two uniforms less, one
calculation in vertex shaders less and many many lines of code
removed.
At the same time makeArrays is also adjusted to take care of
yInverted of the texture, which is needed as we no longer can use
the enableUnnormalizedTexCoords which did the yInverted transformation.

Second part of cleaning up the lib directory: the effects library
now lives in libkwineffects/ directory.
For existing effects nothing changes as the install path is unchanged.
The change obsoletes the lib/ directory.
As glplatform.h has not yet been exported I dared to export it and
adjust the places where it is used.
