Elias Naur a5b6bda941 add support for element flags to shaders
Commit 9afa9b86b6 added Rust support for
encoding flags into elements. This change adds support to shaders by
introducing variant tag structs:

struct VariantTag {
    uint tag;
    uint flags;
}

and returning them from Variant_tag functions.

It also adds a flags argument to write functions for enum variants that
include TagFlags.

No functionality changes.

Elias Naur 07e07c7544 ensure consistent path segment transformation
As described in #62, the non-deterministic scene monoid may result in
slightly different transformations for path segments in an otherwise
closed path.

This change ensures consistent transformation across paths in three steps.

First, absolute transformations computed by the scene monoid is stored
along with path segments and annotated elements.

Second, elements.comp no longer transforms path segments. Instead, each
segment is stored untransformed along with a reference to its absolute
transformation.

Finally, path_coarse performs the transformation of path segments.
Because all segments in a path share a single transformation reference,
the inconsistency in #62 is avoided.

Fixes #62

Elias Naur ad444f615c elements.comp: use shared array of structs directly
The NVIDIA shader compiler bug that forced splitting of the state struct
into primitive types is now fixed.

Elias Naur 6a4e26ef2a all: add optional memory checks
Defining MEM_DEBUG in mem.h will add a size field to Alloc and enable
bounds and alignment checks for every memory read and write.

Notes:
- Deriving an Alloc from Path.tiles is unsound, but it's more trouble to
  convert Path.tiles from TileRef to a variable sized Alloc.
- elements.comp note that "We should be able to use an array of structs but the
  NV shader compiler doesn't seem to like it". If that's still relevant, does
  the shared arrays of Allocs work?

Elias Naur 4de67d9081 unify GPU memory management
Merge all static and dynamic buffers to just one, "memory". Add a malloc
function for dynamic allocations.

Unify static allocation offsets into a "config" buffer containing scene setup
(number of paths, number of path segments), as well as the memory offsets of
the static allocations.

Finally, set an overflow flag when an allocation fail, and make sure to exit
shader execution as soon as that triggers. Add checks before beginning
execution in case the client wants to run two or more shaders before checking
the flag.

The "state" buffer is left alone because it needs zero'ing and because it is
accessed with the "volatile" keyword.

Elias Naur a2a2d12c5d path_coarse.comp: fix intersection inconsistencies, take 2
The previous attempt to fix inconsistent intersections because of floating
point inaccuracy[0] missed two cases.

The first case is that for top intersections with the very first row would fail
the test

tag == PathSeg_FillCubic && y > y0 && xbackdrop < bbox.z

In particular, y is not larger than y0 when y0 has been clipped to 0.

Fix that by re-introducing the min(p0.y, p1.y) < tile_y0 check that does work
and is just as consistent. Add similar check, min(p0.x, p1.x) < tile_x0, for
deciding when to clip the segment to the left edge (but keep consistent xray check
for deciding left edge *intersections*).

The second case is that the tracking left intersections in the [xray, next_xray]
range of tiles may fail when next_xray is forced to last_xray, the final xray value.

Fix that case by computing next_xray explicitly, before looping over the
x tiles. The code is now much simpler.

Finally, ensure that xx0 and xx1 doesn't overflow the allocated number of tiles
by clamping them *after* setting them. Adjust xx0 to include xray, just as xx1
is adjusted; I haven't seen corruption without it, but it's not obvious xx0
always includes xray.

While here, replace a "+=" on a guaranteed zero value to just "=".

Elias Naur 29cfb8b63e eliminate inconsistent line intersections from path_coarse.comp
The finite precision of floating point computations can lead the coarse
renderer into inconsistent tile intersections, which implies impossible line
segments such as lines with gaps or double intersections. The winding number
algorithm is sensitive to these errors which show up as incorrectly filled
paths.

This change forces all intersections to be consistent.
First, the floating point top edge intersection test is removed; top edge intersections are
completely determined by left edge intersections.
Then, left edge intersections are inserted from the tile with the last top edge
intersection. The next top edge is then fixed to be the last tile with a left
edge intersection.

More details in the patch comments.

Elias Naur 19f4d9fa95 change tile segment representation to (origin, vector)
Eliminates the precision loss of the subtraction in the sign(end.x - start.x)
expression in kernel4. That's important for the next change that avoids
inconsistent line intersections in path_coarse.

Raph Levien f53d00e6bc Add transforms and state stack
Actually handle transforms in RenderCtx (was implemented in renderer but
not actually plumbed through). This also requires maintaining a state
stack, which will also be required for clipping.

This PR also starts work on encoding clipping, including tracking
bounding boxes.

WIP, none of this is tested yet.

Raph Levien 3a8227d025 Non-load balanced coarse path raster
This is a bit of a revert of the load-balanced ("more parallel") coarse
path rasterizer, but includes fills and also uses atomicExchange.

I'm doing it this way because it should be considerably easier to do
flattening in this structure, even though there will be some performance
regression.

Path segments are unsorted, but other elements are using the same

This is a checkpoint. At this point, there are unoptimized versions
of tile init and coarse path raster, but it isn't wired up into a
working pipeline. Also observing about a 3x performance regression in
element processing, which needs to be investigated.
