It was semi-manually derived from apitrace's spec/gtypes.py, which was semi-automatically derived from Khronos glenum.spec + OES.

We could have the machinery to generate this from Khronos' enum.spec , or Mesa's XML, but there are many tradeoffs so I took the fastest route for me. I can add a TODO comment for that effect, but I believe that it will take some time until we actually need to update the list.
