/**
@brief %Query for samples

Queries count of samples passed from fragment shader or boolean value
indicating whether any samples passed. Can be used for example for conditional
rendering:
@code
SampleQuery q;

q.begin(SampleQuery::Target::AnySamplesPassed);
// render simplified object to test whether it is visible at all...
q.end();

// render full version of the object only if it is visible
if(q.result<bool>()) {
    // ...
}
@endcode
This approach has some drawbacks, as the rendering is blocked until result is
available for the CPU to decide. This can be improved by using conditional
rendering on GPU itself. The drawing commands will be sent to the GPU and
processed or discarded later, so CPU can continue executing the code without
waiting for the result.
@code
SampleQuery q;

q.begin(SampleQuery::Target::AnySamplesPassed);
// render simplified object to test whether it is visible at all...
q.end();

q.beginConditionalRender(SampleQuery::ConditionalRenderMode::Wait);
// render full version of the object only if the query returns nonzero result
q.endConditionalRender();
