The old one is deprecated, and will be removed in a future release.
Unfortunately, to avoid deprecation warnings, all use of NoInit in the
Math library temporarily have to be Magnum::NoInit This will be cleaned
up when the deprecated alias is removed.
It's a lot of code, but it still seems to be the fastest option of all
we have. This was the original idea when implementing half-float support
in 2016 but then I shelved it in favor of a simpler (but slower) code,
keeping the table only for the benchmark, calculated at runtime. But now
we need a batch version of this, so this comes handy.
Together with an assorted set of off-by-one changes to tests involving
packing, in addition to the changes done in the previous test cleanup
commit. Now Color3 sRGB conversion rountrips correctly.
Most of the code is in the actual test where I'm comparing and
benchmarking three different implementations (a
naive/straightforward/ground-truth one, the chosen one and a fast though
cache-spilling table-based one) to ensure the behavior is consistent
across all of them and that the performance is within reasonable bounds.
The Corrade::TestSuite benchmarking stuff needs serious improvements,
though.
To be more consistent with GLSL naming. Also, the original naming was
quite misleading, as normalize() is used in GLSL for something
completely different.
If building with deprecated APIs, the Functions.h header includes the
new Packing.h header and the {de,}normalize() functions are defined as
deprecated aliases to the new functions. This will be removed at some
point in the future.
