Agreed but as far as I can tell we shouldn't even need gl_linked_shader
after glLinkProgram.

We should probably just free it after linking. Everything we want
*should* have been copied to gl_program, however in practice it seems
there are some things we still get from gl_linked_shader
like NumImages, but with the changes I landed recently we could just
be getting this from the new shader_info struct.
