It's nice that the igt parts are almost done. I think this might need rebasing on top of

I'm glad there are tests, but the internal accuracy of the CAIRO_FORMAT_RGB24 is only 8 bits, so it wouldn't test this properly.

Fortunately we will start using CAIRO_FORMAT_RGB96F and RGBA128F soon. :)

See https://patchwork.freedesktop.org/patch/284507/

We should be able to convert native float to half float with an intrinsic.
