This is a big step towards a cleaner api. The struct reference in
model_t really should be a pointer, but bsp submodel(?) loading messed
that up, though that's just a matter of taking more care in the loading
code. It seems sensible to make that a separate step.
This cleans up texture_t and possibly even improves locality of
reference when running through texture chains (not profiled, and not
actually the goal).
I'd missed a set of bit->lightnum conversions that resulting in lightnum
becoming much greater than 128 and thus trashing memory when the surface
was marked.
The depth limits in the gl and glsl renderers and in the trace code really
bothered me, but then the fix hit me: at load-time, recurse the trees
normally and record the depth in the appropriate place. The node stacks can
then be allocated as necessary (I chose to add a paranoia buffer of 2, but
I expect the maximum depth will rarely be used).
Where possible, symbols have been made static, prefixed with gl_/GL_ or
moved into the code shared by all renderers. This will make doing plugins
easier but done now for link testing.
Still nothing being rendered: still in the process of building the display
lists, but I'm making good progress. Get this into git before something
goes wrong :)
The links are now in "instance surfaces". For non-instanced models (world,
doors, plats etc (ie, world and its sub-models)), there will be one
instance surface per model surface. However, for instanced models (ammo
boxes etc), there will be many, dynamically allocated (not yet
implemented). This commit gets the static instance surfaces working.
This has several benifits:
o The silly issue with alias model pitches being backwards is kept out
of the renderer (it's a quakec thing: entites do their pitch
backwards, but originally, only alias models were rotated. Hipnotic
did brush entity rotations in the correct direction).
o Angle to frame vector conversions are done only when the entity's
angles vector changes, rather than every frame. This avoids a lot of
unnecessary trig function calls.
o Once transformed, an entity's frame vectors are always available.
However, the vectors are left handed rather than right handed (ie,
forward/left/up instead of forward/right/up): just a matter of
watching the sign. This avoids even more trig calls (flag models in
qw).
o This paves the way for merging brush entity surface rendering with the
world model surface rendering (the actual goal of this patch).
o This also paves the way for using quaternions to represent entity
orientation, as that would be a protocol change.
I got rather tired of there being multiple definitions of mostly compatible
plane types (and I need a common type anyway). dplane_t still exists for
now because I want to be careful when messing with the actual bsp format.
sane now. Also optimize QSG2 color handling, and fix some QSG2 bugs. Not that
anyone cares, nobody uses it anyways.
Should be faster, but isn't here. *grmbl*
Now just have one (known) issue with bmodels with fullbright textures not
rendering their base texture. Floating fullbrights are nifty!
Also a number of optimizations, which need wider performance testing.
"Fixes a bug in dynamic lights (lightstyles weren't being rendered correctly
due to bad assumptions about dlightbits)"
It compiles fine, and seems to work, so, here it is.

functions when told to. also make gcc warn if it can't inline a function.
Explicitly inline several functions (including moving VectorNormalize to
mathlib.h so it /can/ be) resulting in a 5.5% speedup for spam2 (88 to 92
fps)
