Erik Faye-Lund 4d066836e3 docs: convert articles to reructuredtext
This uses the previously added scripts to convert the documentation to
reStructuredText, which is both easier to read offline, and can be used
to generate modern HTML for online documentation.

No modification to the generated results have been done.

Mesa 10.2 Release Notes / June 6, 2014
======================================
Mesa 10.2 is a new development release. People who are concerned with
stability and reliability should stick with a previous release or wait
for Mesa 10.2.1.
Mesa 10.2 implements the OpenGL 3.3 API, but the version reported by
glGetString(GL_VERSION) or glGetIntegerv(GL_MAJOR_VERSION) /
glGetIntegerv(GL_MINOR_VERSION) depends on the particular driver being
used. Some drivers don't support all the features required in OpenGL
3.3. OpenGL 3.3 is **only** available if requested at context creation
because compatibility contexts are not supported.

radeonsi
- GL_ARB_multi_bind on all drivers
- GL_ARB_sample_shading on nv50 (GT21x only), nvc0
- GL_ARB_separate_shader_objects (desktop OpenGL) and
GL_EXT_separate_shader_objects (OpenGL ES 2.0 and 3.0) on all drivers
- GL_ARB_stencil_texturing on i965/gen8+
- GL_ARB_texture_cube_map_array on nv50 (GT21x only)
- GL_ARB_texture_gather on nv50 (GT21x only), nvc0
- GL_ARB_texture_query_lod on nv50 (GT21x only), nvc0

- GL_ARB_vertex_type_10f_11f_11f_rev on nv50, nvc0, radeonsi
- GL_ARB_viewport_array on nv50, r600
- GL_INTEL_performance_query on i965/gen5+
Bug fixes
---------
TBD.
Changes
-------
- Renamed *--with-llvm-shared-libs* to *--enable-llvm-shared-libs*
The option is used to control how mesa is linked against LLVM, and
now defaults to enabled (shared linking).
- Split *libxatracker.so* into a standalone library which can be used
with any gallium driver.
Previously the library was linked statically against vmware's virtual
gpu driver(svga), whereas now it loads a shared pipe_*.so driver.
Provide the following options during configure, if you would like
support for svga driver *--enable-xa --with-gallium-drivers=svga*
Note: The files are installed in $(libdir)/gallium-pipe/ and the
interface between them and libxatracker.so is **not** stable.
- The environment variable GALLIUM_MSAA that forced a multisample GLX
visual was removed.
