If the EGL implementation supports the EGL_IMG_hibernate_process
extension, use it to hibernate (and hopefully release memory or other
resources) when the process isn't actively using EGL or OpenGL ES. The
idleness heuristic used in this change is:
(a) Wake up when entering any EGL API call, and remain awake for the
duration of the call.
(b) Do not hibernate when any window surface exists; this means the
application is very likely in the foreground.
(c) Do not hibernate while any context is made current to a thread.
The app may be using a client API without the EGL layer knowing,
so it is not safe to hibernate.
(d) Only check these conditions and attempt to hibernate after a
window surface is destroyed or a thread's context is detached. By
not attempting to hibernate at the end of every EGL call, we avoid
some transient wakeups/hibernate cycles when the app is mostly idle,
or is starting to become active but hasn't created its window
surface yet.
On a Galaxy Nexus, hibernating frees 1567 VM pages from the process.
Both hibernating and waking can take anywhere from 30ms to over 100ms
-- measurements have been very inconsistent.

- don't advertise extensions that are not supported
by any implementation
- remove EGL_ANDROID_swap_rectangle which is not
implemented by anybody and confuses people
- add some comments about mandatory extensions

This change adds the ANDROID suffix to the all the types and functions
defined by the EGL_ANDROID_blob_cache extension.

This change makes the makes the stub EGL_ANDROID_blob_cache callbacks
actually use a BlobCache object.

This change adds an enum value and a description of the expected
implementations to the EGL_ANDROID_recordable extension specification.
It also adds the new enum value to the 'eglext.h' header.

ANDROID_swap_rectangle allows to specify the rectangle affected by eglSwapBuffers(), anything outside of this rectangle is unchanged. in particular EGL_BUFFER_DESTROYED only applies to that rectangle. This extension as well as EGL_BUFFER_PRESERVED allow major optimizations on surfaceflinger, which can redraw only the dirty area during compositing.
However, ANDROID_swap_rectangle allows further optimizations in EGL by reducing the amount of copy-back needed. ANDROID_swap_rectangle is particularily important for software implementations.
