Emit an error if the profile is different.
This is a follow-up commit to commits cc45e82 (x11/gl: Ensure we use the
3.2 core profile) and 2d9081d (wayland/gl: Ensure we use the 3.2 core
profile), so that we do the same on GDK-Win32. Update variable names and
comments so that the code is clearer to people, as we still need a
temporary legacy WGL context first before we can use
wglCreateContextAttribsARB() to create a WGL core (3.2+) context.

Using version 1.20 with a forward compatible 3.2 core context is incorrect
since OpenGL 3.2 deprecates shader version 1.20 (See section E.2). The latest
fglrx drivers will not compile these shaders.

Since we dropped the legacy OpenGL compatibility profile, we need to use
recent OpenGL APi and concepts. This also means that the example code
gets a tad more complicated.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=741946
We simply don't want to care about legacy OpenGL.
All supported platforms also have support for OpenGL ≥ 3.2; it would
complicate the internal code; and would force us to use legacy GL
contexts internally if the first context created by the user is a legacy
GL context, and disable creation of core-3.2 contexts after that.
We will need to fix all our code examples to use the Core 3.2 profile.

Like what is being done in the X11 and Wayland backends, create the
GdkWin32GLContext in 2 steps, where we only create the actual WGL context
in _gdk_win32_gl_context_realize().

Users of the GdkGLContext API should be allowed to set properties on the
shim GdkGLContext instance prior to realization, so that the
backend-specific implementation can use the value of those properties
when creating the windowing system specific resources.
The main three options are:
• a major/minor version tuple, to request a specific GL version
• a debug bit, to request a "debug context", which provides additional
validation and run time checking
• a forward compatibility bit, to request a context that does not
have deprecated functionality

One of the major requests by OpenGL users has been the ability to
specify settings when creating a GL context, like the version to use
or whether the debug support should be enabled.
We have a couple of requirements in terms of API:
• avoid, if at all possible, the "C arrays of integers with
attribute, value pairs", which are hard to write and hard
to bind in non-C languages.
• allow failing in a recoverable way.
• do not make the GL context creation API a mess of arguments.
Looking at prior art, it seems that a common pattern is to split the
construction phase in two:
• a first phase that creates a GL context wrapper object and
does preliminary checks on the environment.
• a second phase that creates the backend-specific GL object.
We adopted a similar pattern:
• gdk_window_create_gl_context() creates a GdkGLContext
• gdk_gl_context_realize() creates the underlying resources
Calling gdk_gl_context_make_current() also realizes the context, so
simple GL users do not need to care. Advanced users will want to
call gdk_window_create_gl_context(), set up the optional requirements,
and then call gdk_gl_context_realize(). If either of these two steps
fails, it's possible to recover by changing the requirements, or simply
creating a new GdkGLContext instance.

This guarantees we only create 1 extra style cascade in total for hidpi
and not one per style context.
Style cascades are now nested like this:
GtkSettings root cascade (scale == 1)
|
+-- GtkSettings per scale cascade (for any scale, no custom providers)
|
+-- GtkStyleContext custom cascade (for any scale, custom providers)
This requires a bunch of care when changing cascade-related properties
inside GtkStyleContext, so that it ends up with a properly setup
cascade, but I think I got those cases right.
The only thing we don't do yet is reverting to a GtkSettings cascade
when the last custom provider is removed from a custom cascade.
The default ->upload_texture() works also for Windows since commit 27cf0fa,
as some of the problems described in 742953 also applied for GL core
contexts on Windows as well before 27cf0fa. Clean up the GDK-Win32 code a
little bit as a result.
