All OpenGL functions are now methods on a Context interface. The
gl.Context matches the one loaded into thread-local storage in C.
For mobile apps, the context is owned by an app.App. For now, it is
provided through the events channel on a lifecycle event. Long-term,
it should probably be available by a method on app.App, but this is
inherently racey with our current use of a channel to deliver events.
Shiny-based programs will have a gl.Context associated with a each
shiny.Window. The expectation is each Window will have different
contexts, allowing them to draw separately.

All GL function calls fill out a C.struct_fnargs and drop it on the
work queue. The Start function drains the work queue and hands
over a batch of calls to C.process which runs them. This allows
multiple GL calls to be executed in a single cgo call.
A GL call is marked as blocking if it returns a value, or if it
takes a Go pointer. In this case the call will not return until
C.process sends a value on the retvalue channel.

Compiling a binary with "-tags gldebug" will add log
tracing to each GL function call. This is the best I
can offer in lieu of of real error handling.
A colleague has accused me of Aspect-oriented
programming. The wikipedia article on the topic lost
me in the first paragraph, so just for the record,
this was inspired by the way the cover tool rewrites
source code.
