It turned out I needed access to the physical device from a buffer
object, so rather than storing the vulkan logical device directly in
buffer (and other) objects, store the qfv logical device.
The better accuracy is for specific cases (90 degree rotations around a
main axis: the matrix element for that axis is now 1 instead of
0.99999994). The speedup comes from doing fewer additions (multiply
seems to be faster than add for fp, at least in this situation).
I added Sys_RegisterShutdown years ago and never really did anything
with it: now any system that needs to be shutdown can ensure it gets
shutdown on program exit, and in the correct order (ie, reverse to init
order).
This makes sure that some unchecked event doesn't cause a lockup.
However, blocking input is really not the way to go: need to implement a
state machine and use non-blocking event reads.
Or really, allow it if the user specifically requests it: the default is
blocked. Modern systems (particularly displays) do not really like
changing resolution, so doing so by default seems rather wrong.
It's just a wrapper around hashtab, but it makes checking if a string is
in a set easy. Way overkill when only a few extensions are enabled, but
more might come later.
This paves the way for clean initialization of the Vulkan renderer, and
very much cleans up the older renderer initialization code as gl and sw
are no longer intertwined.
This fixes the segfault and pushes things very much in the desired
direction of proper system independence for rendering and presentation
separation (though things were headed in the right direction before).
Things are still a mess, but a proper cleanup will be a lot of work and
will, really, involve properly splitting quake-specific code* out from
the rest of the renderer.
* data loading and format specific stuff
A single graphics-capable queue should be enough for now. However, I'm
not sure I'm happy with a lot of the code: it's a bit difficult to write
flexibly configured code for Vulkan (or seems to be at this stage),
especially in C.
