The class now supports incremental filling, multiple fonts, texture
arrays, removes all reliance on STL containers and is finally properly
documented.
To avoid complete breakage of every use, as much as possible was kept as
deprecated APIs -- in particular the reserve() with the nasty
std::vectors, the insert() that assumes a 2D cache and a single font
and textureSize() that returns a 2D vector. Those behave the same as
before, but will assert if the cache is an array or contains more than
one font.
On the other hand, begin() / end() access with std::unordered_map iterators
(ew!) was removed as the internals simply aren't a hashmap anymore. The
image() that returned an Image2D is now used to fill the glyph cache
instead of querying its potentially processed contents, and returns a
MutableImageView3D. I considered keeping it and adding sourceImage()
instead, but such naming turned out to be too inconsistent. For querying
processed image data (such as with the distance field cache) there's a
new processedImage() query, guarded by new GlyphCacheFeature bits -- if
both ImageProcessing and ProcessedImageDownload is set, it can be used
to retrieve the processed image (so, similar as ImageDownload was
before), and if neither is set, the cache contents are queryable
directly through image(), without needing any special support from
the GPU API.
Existing code is updated only in the minimal way possible to ensure that
no serious breakage was introduced by reimplementing the deprecated APIs
on top of the new backend. Porting away from deprecated APIs will be
done in next commits. The GlyphCache and DistanceFieldGlyphCache have
their public API kept intact for now, as a similar rework will be needed
for them as well.
Additionally, the MagnumFont and MagnumFontConverter plugins aren't
compiling yet as they require substantial changes to deal with the new
glyph cache features. That is not the case with other plugins in the
magnum-plugins repository tho, for those the backwards compatibility
"just works". On the other hand, since layout of the AbstractGlyphChange
changed, I'm bumping the AbstractFont plugin interface version to
force-trigger a rebuild of dependent projects. Because I ran a stale
magnum-player binary, it worked without crashing or GL errors but just
didn't show ANY text whatsoever due to ABI differences, and I wasted
some precious minutes before realizing that a simple rebuild would fix
it.
