emulator: opengl: 'large' buffer optimization
This patch modifies the guest encoding libraries to avoid
un-necessary copies when sending large buffers (e.g. pixels)
to the host. Instead, the data is sent directly through a
new IOStream method (writeFully()).
On my machine, this improves the NenaMark2 benchmark
(from 50.8 to 57.1 fps). More importantly, this speeds up
the display of non-GL surfaces too, which are sent through
the special rcUpdateColorBuffer() function in gralloc_goldfish.
This is noticeable in many parts of the UI (e.g. when scrolling
through lists).
To tag a given parameter, use the new 'isLarge' variable flag
in the protocol .attrib file.
Implemented for the following encoding functions:
rcUpdateColorBuffer
glTexSubImage2D
glTexImage2Di
glBufferData
glBufferSubData
glCompressedTexImage2D
glCompressedTexSubImage2D
glTexImage3DOES
glTexSubImage3DOES
glCompressedTexImage3DOES
glCompressedTexSubImage3DOES
+ Optimize the auto-generated encoder functions to avoid
repeated function calls (for size computations).
