In the hopefully-not-too-distant future, st_translate_xyz_program()
won't be called for GLSL programs. I'd like to move all that into
LinkShader and stop calling ProgramStringNotify in it. After that,
ProgramStringNotify will only translate assembly programs and will be
a no-op if a GLSL program is passed into it.
