[Mesa-dev] [PATCH 5/6] i965/fs: Add ARB_fragment_program support to the NIR backend.

[Kenneth Graunke]

Use prog_to_nir where we would normally call glsl_to_nir, handle program
parameter lists, and skip a few things that don't exist.

Using NIR generates much better shader code than Mesa IR, since we get
real optimizations, as opposed to prog_optimize:

total instructions in shared programs: 314007 -> 279892 (-10.86%)
instructions in affected programs:     285173 -> 251058 (-11.96%)
helped:                                2001
HURT:                                  67
GAINED:                                4
LOST:                                  7
