refactor CL/CUDA specific initialization stuffs into
examples/common/clDeviceContext and cudaDeviceContext, and
update examples to use those structs.
also
- remove CL/CUDA tests from osd_regression. The tests for those kernels will be covered by glImaging.
- update cuda initialization to use the GL-interoperable device if available.
- remove CL specialization from glShareTopology, following the same pattern as we took in the previous OsdGLMesh refactoring. (still something strange with XFB kernels though)
- fix file permissions.
Removed OpenCL/D3D11 specialization and add DEVICE_CONTEXT as a template
parameter. For the kernels which don't need a context object (e.g.
CPU, OpenGL, cuda) just ignore the context, and for the kernels which
use a context (e.g. OpenCL, DirectX) takes a context or a user-defined
class as which encapsulates device contexts. Note that OpenCL requires
two objects, cl_context and cl_command_queue. The user-defined
class must provide GetContext() and GetCommandQueue() for strongly typed
binding to osd VertexBuffers and ComputeContexts.
Osd::Mesh and MeshInterface have been used as a handy harness to host
multiple GPU kernels and graphics APIs. However it has CL/DirectX
specializations and duplicates large amount of plubming code. With this
change, glMesh.h and d3d11Mesh.h become just typedefs and all logic is
put into mesh.h without specializations.
Also cleaned up unused header files and code formatting.
- make sure we don't get conflicting enums (CODE_ERROR)
- fix template specialization for Far::TopologyRefinerFactory in regression/common/vtr_utils
- fix remaining error reporting code around osd
Sync'ing the 'dev' branch with the 'feature_3.0dev' branch at commit 68c6d11fc36761ae1a5e6cdc3457be16f2e9704a
The branch 'feature_3.0dev' is now locked and preserved for historical purposes.
* added the numVertexElements argument to Osd*DrawContext::Create, which is used to initialize the patch arrays when calling OsdDrawContext::ConvertPatchArrays
* removed the unused level argument from Osd*DrawContext::_initialize
* maintenance work on CL/D3D11 bindings to get them to compile

2 client APIs are changed.
- VertexBuffer::UpdateData() takes start vertex offset
- ComputeController::Refine() takes FarKernelBatchVector
Also, ComputeContext no longer holds farmesh.
Client can free farmesh after OsdComputeContext is created.
(but still need FarKernelBatchVector to apply subdivision kernels)
- [Feature Adaptive GPU Rendering of Catmull-Clark Surfaces](http://research.microsoft.com/en-us/um/people/cloop/tog2012.pdf).
- New API architecture : we are planning to lock on to this new framework as the basis for backward compatibility, which we will enforce from Release 1.0 onward. Subsequent releases of OpenSubdiv should not break client code.
- DirectX 11 support
- and much more...
