Use TSpan for TType's array sizes Until C++20, std::vector doesn't have a constexpr constructor, which means TType cannot use a `TVector` for `mArraySizes` if an arrayed type needs to be created constexpr. This is needed for the upcoming textureGatherOffsets implementation. A new TSpan class is introduced, based on std::span (from C++20) that holds the pointer/size allocated from a TVector without owning it. Since TVector's allocation are made from a pool, the allocated memory will live beyond the vector's destruction. `TType::mArraySizes` is changed to this type. This change will allow a new constexpr constructor to be added to TType that takes a TSpan as array directly, a value which is constexpr initialized from a static array (instead of TVector).

The goal of ANGLE is to allow users of multiple operating systems to seamlessly run WebGL and other OpenGL ES content by translating OpenGL ES API calls to one of the hardware-supported APIs available for that platform. ANGLE currently provides translation from OpenGL ES 2.0 and 3.0 to desktop OpenGL, OpenGL ES, Direct3D 9, and Direct3D 11. Support for translation from OpenGL ES to Vulkan is underway, and future plans include compute shader support (ES 3.1) and MacOS support.

ANGLE v1.0.772 was certified compliant by passing the ES 2.0.3 conformance tests in October 2011. ANGLE also provides an implementation of the EGL 1.4 specification.
ANGLE is used as the default WebGL backend for both Google Chrome and Mozilla Firefox on Windows platforms. Chrome uses ANGLE for all graphics rendering on Windows, including the accelerated Canvas2D implementation and the Native Client sandbox environment.
Portions of the ANGLE shader compiler are used as a shader validator and translator by WebGL implementations across multiple platforms. It is used on Mac OS X, Linux, and in mobile variants of the browsers. Having one shader validator helps to ensure that a consistent set of GLSL ES shaders are accepted across browsers and platforms. The shader translator can be used to translate shaders to other shading languages, and to optionally apply shader modifications to work around bugs or quirks in the native graphics drivers. The translator targets Desktop GLSL, Direct3D HLSL, and even ESSL for native GLES2 platforms.
