vkDeviceWaitIdle and vkQueueWaitIdle are expensive; a vkFence is cheaper
and the usual way to ensure a previous frame has completed before starting
another.

Most Gio programs have exlusive access to their OpenGL contexts, where
saving and restoring of the GL state is not required.
This change applies to all OpenGL platforms, but matters most for WASM
where syscalls are slow.

CFTypeRefs may not always contain valid pointers, so they must not be
stored in pointer types lest the Go runtime treats them as such.

This change implements a Vulkan port for the two renderers, old and
compute. Run with GIORENDERER=forcecompute to test the compute renderer.
To shake out bugs faster, it is also made the default on systems that
support it. To disable Vulkan and force the use of OpenGL, use the
`novulkan` tag:
$ go run -tags novulkan gioui.org/example/kitchen
Don't forget to file an issue describing the issue that prompted the use
of the tag.

The OpenGL (ES) implementations on Apple platforms are deprecated and
don't support GPU compute programs. This change adds support for the
replacement, the Metal GPU API.

Both the OpenGL and the Direct3D API are stateful and gpu.GPU renders to
the render target current when Frame is called.
Modern GPU API such as Metal don't have a concept of a current render
target, and the target even changes each frame.
Add RenderTarget and add an explicit target argument to GPU.Frame as
well as the underlying driver.Device.BeginFrame.

macOS is the only platform where desktop OpenGL is used. To support
foreign ANGLE contexts add a setting to override Gio's selection of
OpenGL implementation.
The bulk of this change is making all function pointers per-context
instead of global, and loading the OpenGL library dynamically. As a side
effect we're closer to Gio tolerating a platform without any OpenGL
implementation. For example, Apple has deprecated OpenGL and OpenGL ES
on its platforms and may remove them in the future.
Note that as a side-effect of this change, Gio needs Go 1.16 or newer to
run on iOS.

There are no longer any importers of package backend outside of
gioui.org/gpu. Move it internally, and rename it to the slightly more
specific "driver" while we're at it.
