Update the `ShaderCompilerGeneric` to support deferred compilation
using the batch compilation API, so we can get rid of
`drw_manager_shader`.
This approach also allows supporting non-blocking compilation
for static shaders.
This shouldn't cause any behavior changes at the moment, since batch
compilation is not yet used when parallel compilation is disabled.
This adds a `GPUWorker` and a `GPUSecondaryContext` as an easy to use
wrapper for managing secondary GPU contexts.

Rendering animations from Python scripts via `bpy.ops.render.opengl()`
did not trigger any of the notifications in the Metal back-end to
indicate a frame had been rendered and that the associated resources
could be released. This adds a call to GPU_render_step() after each
render. For the original asset in the bug report this reduces the high
memory watermark from 30gb to 13gb for 500 frames. 13gb is likely
still too high and therefore it is likely there are additional leaks
that need to be addressed so this should only be considered a partial
fix.
