New Procedures and Functions

    GLuint CreateImageCHROMIUM(ClientBuffer buffer,
                               GLsizei width,
                               GLsizei height,
                               GLenum internalformat)

    Create an image from <buffer> with width equal to <width> and
    height equal to <height> and format equal to <internalformat>.

    Returns a unique identifier for the image that could be used in
    subsequent operations.

    INVALID_VALUE is generated if <width> or <height> is nonpositive.

    INVALID_VALUE is generated if <internalformat> is not one of
    RED, RGB, RGBA, BGRA_EXT, ATC_RGB_AMD, ATC_RGBA_INTERPOLATED_ALPHA_AMD,
    COMPRESSED_RGB_S3TC_DXT1_EXT, COMPRESSED_RGBA_S3TC_DXT5_EXT or
    ETC1_RGB8_OES.

    void DestroyImageCHROMIUM(GLuint image_id)

    Frees the image previously created by a call to CreateImageCHROMIUM.

    INVALID_OPERATION is generated if <image_id> is not a valid image id.

Dependencies on EXT_texture_format_BGRA8888

       ATC_RGBA_INTERPOLATED_ALPHA_AMD formats.

Dependencies on EXT_texture_compression_s3tc

    If EXT_texture_compression_s3tc is not supported:
     * delete any reference to the COMPRESSED_RGB_S3TC_DXT1_EXT and
       COMPRESSED_RGBA_S3TC_DXT5_EXT formats.

Dependencies on OES_compressed_ETC1_RGB8_texture

    If OES_compressed_ETC1_RGB8_texture is not supported:
     * delete any reference to the ETC1_RGB8_OES format.
