Fahim Imaduddin Dalvi c0e1e31674 Implement instancing for scenery objects
This commit implements instancing for scenery objects by introducing a
OBJECT_INSTANCED verb in stg files. Instances can be defined by their
positions, rotations and scales. The framework also supports extending
object instancing with custom effects, including an additional colorization
effect that allows for setting the colors for each instance of the same
model.

    Use header file defined indices for vertex attributes

    Vertex attributes were hardcoded across the code, this commit changes
    the implementation to use constants defined in the header file. Also
    change the indices used to be compatible with the future HDR pipeline.

    Clean up shader code

    Use *.glsl library code to minimize duplication across object-instancing*
    shaders. Rename variables to follow Shader Style Guide:

    Add support for multiple effects and add a colored instancing effect.

    This commit adds shaders and a corresponding effect for colored
    instanced objects using the new custom attributes provided by the
    corresponding SimGear commit.

    Properly handle model/texture/effects

    Simgear:
    Previously, the model was being loaded without any options, this is
    now fixed. *ac models have their effect instantiated manually, while
    *xml models require an explicit <effect> tags. Also, the already
    loaded model node is edited (for adding vertex attributes, statesets
    etc) instead of creating a new node (for deferred texture loading and
    other stuff to work).

    FGData:
    Reverted object-instancing effect to match model-default more closely
    to make texturing work.

    Implement model-default effects for instanced objects.

    Not perfect yet, normal models are quite a bit darker, and we are loading
    the model using OSG directly, instead of SGModelLib.

    Implemented instance rotation and scaling

    This commit adds support for optional per-instance rotation and
    scaling, defaulting to no scaling and rotation if none is specified.

    Implemented texture handling

    The code assumes there is a single texture, and this is applied
    to the single drawable geometry created for instancing. This commit
    breaks texture-less object support for instancing.
