In cases where SurfaceFlinger is applying a color matrix (usually for
accessibility features), we previously would perform a render-to-
texture for the initial composition, and then apply the matrix during
a copy to the framebuffer. This changes that behavior to just apply the
matrix during composition without a render-to-texture pass.
This may result in a perceived change of the image in cases with alpha
blending, since the blending is performed at a different stage of the
pipeline and the system effectively performs non-linear blends.
However, neither this nor the prior render-to-texture pass is strictly
correct in that regard, and this approach is less error-prone and
likely faster.

This is an attempt at improving the experience of
users with color vision impairement.
At this time this feature can only be enabled for
debugging:
adb shell service call SurfaceFlinger 1014 i32 PARAM
with PARAM:
0 : disabled
1 : protanomaly/protanopia simulation
2 : deuteranomaly/deuteranopia simulation
3 : tritanopia/tritanomaly simulation
11, 12, 13: same as above w/ attempted correction/enhancement
The enhancement algorithm tries to spread the "error"
such that tones that would otherwise appear similar can be
distinguished.

the main reason for doing this is so that we can have
access to informations about a texture (like its dimension)
close to where we generate and use shaders in ES 2.0.
Previously, there wasn't any way to get to a texture's size
from a RenderEngine implementation.
