f4103618ff Report an error if an out param is never written to.
GLSL ES2 behavior is explicitly undefined if an out-param is never
written to: "If a function does not write to an out parameter, the value
of the actual parameter is undefined when the function returns."

We do see divergence here in practice: SkVM's behavior (the parameter is
left alone) differs from my GPU's behavior (the parameter is zeroed
out).

SkSL will now report an error if an out parameter is never assigned-to.
There is no control flow analysis performed, so we will not report
cases where the out parameter is assigned-to on some paths but not
others. (Technically the return-on-all-paths logic could be adapted
for this, but it would be a fair amount of work.)

Structs are currently exempt from the rule because custom mesh
specifications require an `out` parameter for a Varyings struct, even if
your mesh program doesn't need Varyings.
