objects" rather than "Android fence sync objects."

Overview
This extension enables the creation of EGL fence sync objects that are
associated with an Android Sync HAL fence object. These EGL fence sync
objects have nearly identical semantics to those defined by the
KHR_fence_sync extension, except that they have an additional attribute
storing the file descriptor referring to the native Android fence object.
associated with a native synchronization fence object that is referenced
using a file descriptor. These EGL fence sync objects have nearly
identical semantics to those defined by the KHR_fence_sync extension,
except that they have an additional attribute storing the file descriptor
referring to the native fence object.
This extension assumes the existence of a native fence synchronization
object that behaves similarly to an EGL fence sync object. These native
objects must have a signal status like that of an EGLSyncKHR object that
indicates whether the fence has ever been signaled. Once signaled the
native object's signal status may not change again.

boolean attribute. It might be nice to pick up future signaling conditions

- Reworded the extension to refer to "native fence" objects rather than
"Android fence" objects.
- Added a paragraph to the overview that describes assumptions about the
