As a consequence, most API is gone from gpu/gl, and embedding Gio in
foreign frameworks don't need to provide an OpenGL implementation.
The next change simplifies the GLFW embedding example accordingly.

The error message is not appropriate where there are multiple backends,
and there's a much better chance Gio will run with the direct3d backend
where no external DLLs are required.

A recent change made the OpenGL functions an interface of the functions
required for the implementation of GPU, a renderer for Gio operations.
That allowed for running Gio on external systems where OpenGL is
available.
However, to allow for non-OpenGL flavored backends such as Vulkan,
Metal and Direct3D, this change introduces Backend for the high-level
operations required by GPU. This change also adds a concrete backend
to package gl.
Type Backend is a first cut heavily based on OpenGL. Future changes will add
more backends, where the Backend interface quite possibly will need refinement.

The rendering implementation is needed for using Gio UI with external
window libraries such as GLFW. Expose it in the new package gpu.

We'd like to support Gio using a different renderer binding than
the builtin. A first step is to define the Functions interface
in package gl, and extract the concrete implementations to a
separate package.
