Checking whether given type can be used for mesh indices or image data
was always done like this, because it was also needed to get OpenGL type
ID for the type:
TypeTraits<typename TypeTraits<T>::IndexType>::glType()
This was cumbersome, now the check is done using function, which
returns the OpenGL type ID directly:
TypeTraits<T>::indexType()
Also replaced TextureType with imageType() and renamed glType() to just
type().
It should improve performance, because what can be computed at compile
time is now computed at compile time. In addition these things have been
changed or improved:
* Removed constructors from T*, as they cannot be AFAIK written using
constexpr functions only and they only do unnecessary data copying
most of the time. The functionality is now provided using static
functions Matrix*::from() and Vector*::from() which returns either
const or non-const reference to original data, so no copy is
performed. These functions also have explicit warning about unsafe
operations.
* Defaulted copy constructors and assignment operators, using
"default initialization" for arrays instead of memsetting it with
zeros. It should behave the same and this way we don't need any
memcpy(), memset() etc. from <cstring>, which is good.
All HTML code and Doxygen shortcuts such as @c, @b and @em are now
rewritten using Markdown syntax, which makes it more readable.
Also updated Doxyfile. Doxygen 1.8 at least is required to generate
the documentation now.
SubdivideCleanBenchmark times are untouched with this change, but the
hash should be better for MeshTools::CombineIndices, where the previous
hash generated all zeros in most cases.
