That way we don't need to move the clip rounded rect manually through
the vertex shader into the fragment shader but can just look at the push
constants.
Simplifies shaders a lot.
One cannot use #if...#endif within macro calls in Visual Studio and
possibly other compilers, and there are more uses of VLAs that need to be
replaced with g_newa().
There were also checks for the clip type in gskvulkanrenderpass.c which
were possibly not done right (using the address of the type value to check
for a type value), which triggered errors as one is attempting to compare
a pointer type to an enum/int type.

Note: We interpolate premultiplied colors as per the CSS spec. This i
different from Cairo, which interpolates unpremultiplied.
So in testcases with translucent gradients, it's actually Cairo that is
wrong.
This is now tracking the clips added by the clip nodes.
If any particular node can't deal with a clip, it falls back to Cairo
rendering. But if it can, it will render it directly.
Instead of constantly recalculating this (especially recursively for
parents!) we do it only on construction, because everything is
immutable anyway. Also, most nodes had a bounds already and can
use the new parent member instead.
We also do direct access to the node bounds rather than calling
gsk_render_node_get_bounds in various places, which means
we do less copying.
This way we can pass the command pool around.
And that allows us to allocate and submitcustom buffers.
And that is necessary to make staging images work.
This code makes renderers fall back to Cairo rendering if they don't
know how to handle a render node's type.
This allows adding new render nodes with impunity.
Instead of having a setter for the transform, have a GskTransformNode.
Most of the oprations that GTK does do not require a transform, so it
doesn't make sense to have it as a primary attribute.
Also, changing the transform requires updating the uniforms of the GL
renderer, so we're happy if we can avoid that.
Add SURFACE and TEXTURE operations. This way, we actually render more
than one node every frame because not everything is a fallback node
anymore that gets composited with its children into a cairo surface.
Instead of pushing the root matrix, push the world matrix for the
current node. That way, the bounds we emit as vertices are actually
properly transformed.
First, we collect all the info about descriptor sets into a hash table,
then we use its size to determine the amount of sets and allocate those
before we finally go ahead and use the hash table's contents to
initialize the descriptor sets.
And then we're ready to render.
And move the actual rendering code there.
A RenderPass is a collection of operations on the same target that
get executed one after another. It roughly targets VkRenderPass or
rather the subpasses of a VkRenderPass.
For now, only the infrastructure is there. No real stuff is happening.
