Alyssa Rosenzweig 0fcddd4d2c pan/bi: Rework varying linking on Valhall
Valhall introduces hardware-allocated varyings. Instead of allocating varying
descriptors on the CPU with a slot based interface, the driver just tells the
hardware how many bytes to allocate per vertex and loads/stores with byte
offsets. This is much nicer!

However, this requires us to rework our linking code to account for separable
shaders. With separable shaders, we can't rely on driver_location matching
between stages, and unlike on Midgard, we can't resolve the differences with
curated command stream descriptors. However, we *can* rely on slots matching. So
we should "just" determine the byte offsets based on the slot, and then
separable shaders work.

For GLES, it really is that easy.

For desktop GL, it's not -- desktop GL brings unpredictable extra varyings like
COL1 and TEX2. Allocating space for all of these unconditionally would hamper
performance. To cope, we key fragment shaders to the set of non-GLES varyings
written by the linked vertex shader. Then we may define an efficient ABI, where
only apps only pay for what they use.

Fixes various tests in dEQP-GLES31.functional.separate_shader.random.* on
Valhall.

Other repositories are likely forks, and code found there is not supported.


Build & install
---------------

You can find more information in our documentation (`docs/install.rst
<https://mesa3d.org/install.html>`_), but the recommended way is to use
Meson (`docs/meson.rst <https://mesa3d.org/meson.html>`_):

.. code-block:: sh

  $ mkdir build
  $ cd build
  $ meson ..
  $ sudo ninja install

appropriate, you should ask your question on `OFTC's #dri-devel
<irc://irc.oftc.net/dri-devel>`_, someone will redirect you if
necessary.
Remember that not everyone is in the same timezone as you, so it might
take a while before someone qualified sees your question.
