/**
@brief Base class for shaders

This class is designed to be used via subclassing. Subclasses define these
functions and properties:
 - <strong>Attribute location</strong> enum with indexes where the particular
   attribute is bound, for example:
@code
enum Attribute {
    Vertex = 1,
    Normal = 2,
    TextureCoords = 3,
};
@endcode
   See also bindAttribute().
 - @b Constructor, which attaches particular shaders, links the program, binds
   attribute locations and gets uniform locations, for example:
@code
    // Load shaders from file and attach them to the program
    Shader* vertexShader = Shader::fromFile(Shader::Vertex, "PhongShader.vert");
    Shader* fragmentShader = Shader::fromFile(Shader::Fragment, "PhongShader.frag");
    attachShader(vertexShader);
    attachShader(fragmentShader);

    // Bind attribute names to IDs
    bindAttribute(Vertex, "vertex");
    bindAttribute(Normal, "normal");
    bindAttribute(TextureCoords, "textureCoords");

    // Link, then delete now uneeded shaders
    link();
    delete vertexShader;
    delete fragmentShader;

    // Get locations of uniforms
    transformationMatrixUniform = uniformLocation("transformationMatrix");
    projectionMatrixUniform = uniformLocation("projectionMatrix");
    // more uniforms like light location, colors etc.
@endcode
 - <strong>Uniform binding functions</strong>, which set shader uniforms with
   setUniform() and setUniformArray() functions. Example:
@code
void setTransformationMatrixUniform(const Matrix4& matrix) {
    setUniform(transformationMatrixUniform, matrix);
}
@endcode

Basic workflow with AbstractShaderProgram subclasses is: instancing the class
(once at the beginning), then in every frame calling use(), setting uniforms
and calling Mesh::draw() (see its documentation for more).
