    Disable partial swap for gl es type of gl · 6f370b54
    Maksim Sisov authored
    Currently, partial swap is disabled on Linux with Mesa drivers and
    with gl_type: gl.
    
    Likely, we could not experience any glitches crrev.com/c/1685909,
    but once that CL has been merged, partial swap became broken on
    Mesa with OpenGL ES (which Wayland uses). Not sure why it started
    to happen, but I can assume that the problem is in the Mesa impl
    for Wayland as well. Even though, the spec says Wayland compositor
    updates only that part of a surface, which has damage, other parts
    of a surface showing black squares.
    
    One reason behind that might be missing EGL_NV_post_sub_buffer
    extension, which we can't test while being in the GPU process
    when dma buffers are used. It is required to create an egl
    surface to test against that extension. However, the spec
    does not say anything about that. Ideally, Wayland compositor
    must handle that by itself, make a union of damages and copy
    parts of backbuffer to frontbuffer without getting OpenGL
    into play, but something bad happens. At this point,
    the problem has only been spotted on Mesa drivers. Others
    will be tested asap.
    
    Thus, remove the gl type and enforce the workaround for both
    Mesa with OpenGL and OpenGL ES.
