The current texture cache has several points that hurt maintainability
and performance. It's easy to break unrelated parts of the cache
when doing minor changes. The cache can easily forget valuable
information about the cached textures by CPU writes or simply by its
normal usage.The current texture cache has several points that hurt

This commit aims to address those issues.
Games using D3D idioms can join images and samplers when a shader
executes, instead of baking them into a combined sampler image. This is
also possible on Vulkan.
One approach to this solution would be to use separate samplers on
Vulkan and leave this unimplemented on OpenGL, but we can't do this
because there's no consistent way of determining which constant buffer
holds a sampler and which one an image. We could in theory find the
first bit and if it's in the TIC area, it's an image; but this falls
apart when an image or sampler handle use an index of zero.
The used approach is to track for a LOP.OR operation (this is done at an
IR level, not at an ISA level), track again the constant buffers used as
source and store this pair. Then, outside of shader execution, join
the sample and image pair with a bitwise or operation.
This approach won't work on games that truly use separate samplers in a
meaningful way. For example, pooling textures in a 2D array and
determining at runtime what sampler to use.
This invalidates OpenGL's disk shader cache :)

Hardware S2R special registers match gl_Thread*MaskNV. We can trivially
implement these using Nvidia's extension on OpenGL or naively stubbing
them with the ARB instructions to match. This might cause issues if the
host device warp size doesn't match Nvidia's. That said, this is
unlikely on proper shaders.

Implements a reduction operation. It's an atomic operation that doesn't
return a value.
This commit introduces another primitive because some shading languages
might have a primitive for reduction operations.
ATOM operates atomically on global memory. For now only add ATOM.ADD
since that's what was found in commercial games.
This asserts for ATOM.ADD.S32 (handling the others as unimplemented),
although ATOM.ADD.U32 shouldn't be any different.
This change forces us to change the default type on SPIR-V storage
buffers from float to uint. We could also alias the buffers, but it's
simpler for now to just use uint. While we are at it, abstract the code
to avoid repetition.
This commit introduces a mechanism by which shader IR code can be
amended and extended. This useful for track algorithms where certain
information can derived from before the track such as indexes to array
samplers.
Bindless textures were using u64 to pack the buffer and offset from
where they come from. Drop this in favor of separated entries in the
struct.
Remove the usage of std::set in favor of std::list (it's not std::vector
to avoid reference invalidations) for samplers and images.
In the process remove implementation of SUATOM.MIN and SUATOM.MAX as
these require a distinction between U32 and S32. These have to be
implemented with imageCompSwap loop.
