GL: implement EGL context creation in Dawn native.

An abstract base class (Device::Context) is used to avoid adding dependencies to Device, with ContextEGL derived from it. This also
leaves open the possibility of supporting other native GL contexts
in the future (e.g., glX). One temporary EGLContext is created by opengl::Backend during Adapter discovery, then one is created for and
owned by each Device.

Contexts for the desktop GL backend are also managed via EGL, which
works for most modern drivers. This also means that GLFW is now
always used in GLFW_NO_API mode.

Since contexts are now per-device, all of the default GL state
setting and debug output setup was moved from Adapter to Device.

Dawn, a WebGPU implementation

Dawn is an open-source and cross-platform implementation of the work-in-progress WebGPU standard. More precisely it implements webgpu.h that is a one-to-one mapping with the WebGPU IDL. Dawn is meant to be integrated as part of a larger system and is the underlying implementation of WebGPU in Chromium.

Dawn provides several WebGPU building blocks:

  • WebGPU C/C++ headers that applications and other building blocks use.
    • The webgpu.h version that Dawn implements.
    • A C++ wrapper for the webgpu.h.
  • A “native” implementation of WebGPU using platforms' GPU APIs:
    • D3D12 on Windows 10
    • Metal on macOS and iOS
    • Vulkan on Windows, Linux, ChromeOS, Android and Fuchsia
    • OpenGL as best effort where available
  • A client-server implementation of WebGPU for applications that are in a sandbox without access to native drivers
  • Tint is a compiler for the WebGPU Shader Language (WGSL).
