asarium 357cd76252 Render hardpoint model outlines using geometry shaders
This adds support for rendering models using thick lines (that means
lines wider than 1 pixel) which is required by the hardpoint HUD gauge.
This feature was present before the switch to OpenGL code and had to be
removed since the core profile does not support rendering lines wider
than 1 pixel.

This uses a geometry shader for converting all the triangles from a
model to 3 quads along the triangle lines which are as thick as set by
the model renderer. Geometry shaders are quite slow if they generate a
lot of geometry (and this generates 4 times the usual amount of geometry
in the shader) so it's probably not a very fast rendering operation but
it is only needed once per frame so it shouldn't be too bad.

I also added support for the RenderDoc API since I needed that for
debugging and it might be useful in the future. It will only become
active if RenderDoc is actually attached to the process so in most cases
the new code will do nothing.

asarium 1571caa95e Set team_glow_enabled uniform to proper value
This was missed when converting the model uniforms to a uniform buffer
and caused some issues with team colors. This sets that uniform to the
value it had before the uniform buffer changes.

This fixes #1683.

asarium c463709399 Remove gr_set_fog
Specifying the fog rendering options is now handled by the materials
system and the implementation of gr_set_fog was pretty much empty so I
removed it.

asarium c6975fda3c Use uniform buffer blocks for passing uniform data to shaders
This uses UBOs for building a buffer object of uniform data before
using that data to draw objects. This should reduce the CPU overhead by
reducing the amount of glUniform calls required for executing a single
draw call. This is especially useful if rendering is limited by the CPU
which should help performance for people with slower CPUs.

This fixes #910.
