This change implements support for compute programs in the Direct3D 11
driver. The compute renderer doesn't work for me yet; my NVIDIA GTX 970
and Intel GPUs both display corrupted output and hangs.

Changes to the gioui.org/shader module are generally breaking changes,
which means that a particular version of gioui.org must be build with a
particular version of gioui.org/shader. Until now, the gpu package
checked the module version against an expected version and would fail at
runtime if there's a mismatch.
This change replaces all that complexity with a simple procedural
change: bump the module major version of gioui.org/shader at each such
incompatible change. It doesn't matter that we'll eventually reach
gioui.org/v1234/shader; the module is internal and won't break clients.

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.

This change adds a CPU fallback for devices that don't support the old
renderer nor have GPU support for compute programs.
Most of the hard work is implemented in the gioui.org/cpu module. It
uses the SwiftShader project with light modification to output
statically compiled CPU .o files for each compute program.
The CPU fallback only covers Linux and Android on arm, arm64, amd64
architectures. There is no fundamental reason support can't be extended
to other platforms:
- macOS and iOS are probably easy, but it's likely that virtually every
device has GPU support for compute shaders.
- Windows needs a Cgo-less port, or a build constraint to require a C
compiler (Gio core doesn't).
- FreeBSD and OpenBSD are probably also easy to do because they're so
similar to Linux.
- The 386 binaries didn't work properly in my tests, so fixes to
SwiftShader is probably needed. However, I expect virtually every
Intel device can run amd64 binaries.
