When combining OpenTK with a third-party OpenGL toolkit, it is now
possible to implement a suitable GetAddress() and GetCurrentContext()
implementation in terms of the third-party toolkit. If no
implementation is specified, then OpenTK will try to guess the most
suitable implementation within its own platform backends.
If no custom implementation is defined, and if no suitable
implementation can be found, then OpenTK will throw a
PlatformNotSupportedException. If a suitable implementation is found or
defined, then OpenTK will attempt to load OpenGL entry points using
that implementation.
In this case third-party toolkit remains solely responsible for
managing its context via its MakeCurrent(), SwapBuffers(), etc
implementations.
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.
Implementations may reuse OpenGL context handles that have been
destroyed. If a context is finalized but not Disposed, then OpenTK may
keep a reference to the old context handle, causing a crash when the
same handle is returned for a new context. To fix that, new context
handles will now replace old handles in case of a clash.
The static initializer of GetCurrentContext would always default to the
desktop PlatformFactory, which caused problems when trying to run OpenGL
ES code on the desktop. The initializer is now removed and
GetCurrentContext is set in the context constructor, before creating any
contexts.
Added GraphicsContext() constructor that takes an existing, valid OpenGL context. This can be used for interop with third-party toolkits which create the OpenGL context themselves.

* Source/OpenTK/Platform/Dummy/DummyGLContext.cs: Added IsDisposed
property to IGraphicsContext and implemented in all context classes.
Removed 'bool disposed' fields from these classes in favor of the
new property.
Added GraphicsContextBase, which acts as the foundation of all IGraphicsContext implementations.
Added DesktopGraphicsContext, which acts as the foundation of all desktop (i.e. not ES) IGraphicsContext implementations.
Modified all IGraphicsContext implementations to inherit from GraphicsContextBase and/or DesktopGraphicsContext.
Removed OpenTK.Graphics.Glu class (reason: deprecated upstream; most functionality provided by OpenTK math; not compatible with OpenGL 3.0+.) OpenTK.Graphics.Glu can be accessed through OpenTK.Compatibility.
Added OpenGL|ES-specific ErrorHelper classes.
Moved OpenTK.Graphics.DisplayDevice and OpenTK.Graphics.DisplayResolution to the root OpenTK namespace (reason: their functionality is not specific and does not depend on OpenTK.Graphics).
Split Graphics*Exception classes into different files.
Made GraphicsErrorException public (reason: necessary for OpenTK.Compatibility).
Improved CreateDummyContext logic to detect and use the context handle of the current thread or a specified handle.
Removed GetCurrentContext() methods from platform-specific context implementations (everything now goes through the relevant IPlatformFactories).
Added GraphicsContext.ErrorChecking property to temporarily disable error checking if necessary.
Error checking is now added to all functions in debug mode (the generator would miss specific CLS-compliant overloads before).
Added OpenGL 3.0 support for GLX contexts.
Added support for creating dummy contexts (useful if you are creating contexts from an external library).
Cleaned up unused and stale code.
