This PR allows for the glsl backend to output push constants as uniform buffers to allow for push constant emulation.
It only allows for one push constant per entry point, which is fine in my opinion since even vulkan glsl only allows one
push_constant
decoration per shader.It also changes the
ReflectionInfo
to return a name of the uniform buffer used for the emulation if it was used andOptions
to take the binding to use for the buffer if explicit bindings are supported.This interface is deeply tied with the changes for push constant emulation on wgpu, so it might be useful to also see it JCapucho/wgpu@ee3887e
Note: I don't have much experience with openGL so the code might not be the best.
