90fc671ef8 gl backend: Avoid roundtripping via surface when updloading
Do custom uploads rather than using gdk_cairo_surface_upload_to_gl(),
because this way we avoids a roundtrip (memcpy and possibly conversion)
to the cairo image surface format.

8e59cdabac Add GDK_MEMORY_R8G8B8A8_PREMULTIPLIED
This is the default OpenGL format, and in fact the only pixel format
that GLES supports uploading as. Actually, the premultiplied part is
really just about how we use the textures, but all textures in GTK
are premultiplied.

13d943f763 texture: Change download vfunc
A problem with textures is that they can become too big for GPU memory,
which would require tiling. But for tiling we only need to download
the pixels needed by the tile.

Similarly, there might be interest to not upload full textures if a
renderer knows it only needs a small part.

Both of these methods require the ability to specify an area of the
texture to be downloaded. So change the download vfunc to include
this parameter now before we add even more textures later.

A private gdk_texture_download_area() function has also been added, but
nobody is using it yet.

8920639a2b texture: Add GdkMemoryTexture
GdkMemoryTexture is a texture implementation for holding data in memory
(read: GBytes). You specify the GdkMemoryFormat that data is in and off
you go.

Renderers can use this to add uploads in various different formats and
don't need to fallback to GDK doing the conersion on the CPU.

Supported formats can be extended if we need new ones, for now I just
added the relevant ones for Cairo and GdkPixbuf.

The constructor is also private still, because I'm not sure we want to
export GdkMemoryFormat.
Wrappers that do from_cairo_surface() and for_pixbuf() do exist though.
