Fixed WGL_ARB_pixel_format attribute selection for doublebuffering,
stereoscopic rendering and hardware acceleration. Implemented
minimization strategy to select the optimal PixelFormatDescriptor in the
fallback path.
Instead of creating a list of all available formats and iterating
through that, we let the driver decide which is the best accelerated
format to use for the user parameters. If no such format exists, we fall
back to generic acceleration or software acceleration, in turn.
This affects issue #21
Starting with OpenGL 4.2, strings passed to GL.ShaderSource are allowed
to contain multi-byte characters in comments (issue #18). This patch
modifies the marshaling code to use UTF8.GetBytes in order to marshal
strings, instead of Marshal.StringToHGlobalAnsi().
Don't filter window messages passed to our window (see
http://blogs.msdn.com/b/oldnewthing/archive/2005/02/09/369804.aspx).
Additionally, return the correct values for all messages we are actually
handling and clean up unmanaged memory after we are done with the
window.
Instead of combining PeekMessage+GetMessage, we can simply call
PeekMessage(Remove) to achieve the same effect. This also allows us to
remove the IsIdle property, which is no longer used anywhere.
The temporary context is now retained until the actual context has been
constructed. If we don't do this, then WGL_ARB_create_context may fail
to work correctly on specific GPUs (e.g. Intel). This may affect issue
#19.
The correct way to query number of available pixel formats is to use
Wgl.Arb.GetPixelFormatAttrib(NumberPixelFormatsArb), not
Wgl.Arb.ChoosePixelFormats. This fixes an issue where Intel drivers
would fail to report any pixel formats in GetModesARB, even when
WGL_ARB_pixel_format is supported.

On many/most platforms, GraphicsContexts can only be released by the
thread where they are current. This means that the user must call
GraphicsContext.Dispose() or risk a resource leak.
Since we cannot release contexts on the finalizer thread, we should keep
strong references, instead of weak references, until the user explicitly
calls Dispose().
This patch fixes issues with SDL2 crashing when running the MonoGame
WindowsGL test suite.
Misbehaving clients that shall not be named here may call
GameWindow.Close() inside the GameWindow.Closing event. This causes
recursion in SDL2, crashing the application.
This patch adds a guard to protect against recursion when calling
GameWindow.Close().
Several projects are still using the last svn revision from the
sourceforge repository (r3127). These overloads provide an upgrade path
from r3127 to OpenTK 1.1.
