This type of indices is not natively supported on modern GPU and
gives warning on some implementation. The memory savings it
provides is also quite minimal and unlikely to be visible on
nowadays hardware.
This remove some uneeded struct members and makes primitive
restart always enabled by default. This can be broken by addons
if they are not careful enough but many other states have this
problem.
Also leverage GL_PRIMITIVE_RESTART_FIXED_INDEX if
ARB_ES3_compatibility is supported. This removes all API calls
to change restart index depending on indices length.
This will have multiple benefit.
TODO detail benefits (culling, more explicit, handling of clipping planes)
For now the view usage is wrapped to make changes needed more progressive.
On Windows 10 with a post Februari 2019 Intel driver, the box selection
is not working. It only detects the object centers, but not the drawn
triangles of the basic engine.

Cycles now uses the color space on the image datablock, and uses OpenColorIO
to convert to scene linear as needed. Byte images do not take extra memory,
they are compressed in scene linear + sRGB transfer function which in common
cases is a no-op.
Eevee and workbench were changed to work similar. Float images are stored as
scene linear. Byte images are compressed as scene linear + sRGB and stored in
a GL_SRGB8_ALPHA8 texture. From the GLSL shader side this means they are read
as scene linear, simplifying the code and taking advantage of hardware support.
Further, OpenGL image textures are now all stored with premultiplied alpha.
Eevee texture sampling looks a little different now because interpolation
happens premultiplied and in scene linear space.
Overlays and grease pencil work in sRGB space so those now have an extra
conversion to sRGB after reading from image textures. This is not particularly
elegant but as long as engines use different conventions, one or the other
needs to do conversion.
This change breaks compatibility for cases where multiple image texture nodes
were using the same image with different color space node settings. However it
gives more predictable behavior for baking and texture painting if save, load
and image editing operations have a single color space to handle.

If the draw uses the same id as the previous draw, there is no need to read the depth
buffer at this point, avoiding a CPU-GPU sync bubble.
Fixes T62511 Selection is significantly slower in production scenes.
With this patch glReadPixels is not the bottleneck. Regular drawing Is still very
slow so I would suggest fixing the regular drawing first before trying to
improve the selection algorithm.
If image buffer is not loaded and blender attempts to reload it (during
`BKE_image_acquire_ibuf`) over and over for each frame rendered.
When attempting this reload, image_load_image_file is calling
`BKE_image_free_buffers` and tag the Image to the (GPU) image_free_queue
(because this run on the rendering thread).
If the main thread decide to redraw the UI and go through `GPU_free_unused_buffers` they all get deleted and if that happens before the rendering thread use them ... segfault.
If I replace the environment textures with correct ones (the file does not seems to contain them), there is no crash when rendering.
I used a list of GPUTexture from blender Image to increase and decrease the
reference counter correctly.
This add very little memory and computation overhead.
