    Shader atomic counter tests

Tests:
 + dEQP-GLES31.functional.shaders.atomic_counter.*

Includes:
 + Calls to atomicCounter(), atomicCounterIncrement() and atomicCounterDecrement()
   - Only in compute shaders
   - With different number of parallel shaders
   - With different number of calls per shader
   - With different combinations of operations
   - With conditional calls depending on thread and call number
 + Atomic counters with different offsets
 + Atomic counters with default layout qualifier and implicit offset and binding
 + Invalid offsets and bindings in layout qualifier
 + Invalid offsets and bindings in default layout qualifier

Excludes:
 + Multiple binding points and buffers
   - Only single binding point is required by specification
 + Use in other than compute shader
   - Specification requires zero binding points in other shader types
 + Usage in multiple shaders at same time
 + Multiple shader innovocations

Description:

Test cases perform atomic counter calls and saves results to a SSBO. The SSBO
and the atomic counter buffer are read back from the device after executing
the shader. Atomic counter values are verified by comparing against the
initial value subtracted by total number of calls to atomicCounterDecrement()
and incremented by total number of calls to atomicCounterIncrement() performed
by the shader. SSBO value verification depends on the set of functions used in
the shader. Values returned by call to atomicCounterDecrement() are
incremented by one so that all values in the SSBO are values of counter before
peforming operation. Atomic counter values returned by different atomic
counters are verified separately.

Test cases using only atomicCounter() call are verified by checking that all
calls returned the same value as set initially to the atomic counter.

Test case using either atomicCounterIncrement() or atomicCounterDecrement()
call check that each value returned is unique and all values are in continuous
range from initial value to the expected result value.

Test cases using either atomicCounterIncrement() or atomicCounterDecrement()
and atomicCounter() call perform call to atomicCounter() before and after each
call to atomicCounterIncrement()/atomicCounterDecrement(). Test cases check
that value returned by atomicCounterIncrement()/atomicCounterDecrement() is
between values returned by previous and following call to atomicCounter().

Test cases with calls to both atomicCounterIncrement() and
atomicCounterDecrement() are verified by counting how many times each value
was returned by each function. Using these counts we check that there is
possible order in which operations could have been performed. Following pseudo
code checks that there is possible order in which increments and decrements
could have happened.

// Minimum value returned by atomicCounterDecrement() or atomicCounterIncrement()
minValue
// Maximum value returned by atomicCounterDecrement() or atomicCounterIncrement()
maxValue
// incrementCounts[value] is how many times value was returned by atomicCounterIncrement()
incrementCounts[]
// decrementCounts[value] is how many times value-1 was returned by atomicCounterDecrement()
decrementCounts[]
// Value of counter before any operation has been performed
initialValue
// Value of counter after executing shader
resultValue

pos = initialValue

while incrementCounts[pos] + decrementCounts[pos] == 0:
	// Prefer operations that would move away from the result value.
	if incrementCounts[pos] > 0 and pos > resultValue:
		incrementCounts[pos]--
		pos++
	else if decrementCounts[pos]:
		decrementCounts[pos]--
		pos--
	else
		incrementCounts[pos]--
		pos++

	// Last value might have never been returned by call
	// to atomicCounterIncrement() or atomicCounterDecrement()
	// if it's outside of range.
	if pos < minValue or pos > maxValue:
		break

// Check that incrementCounts and decrementCounts contain only zero values.

Test set includes negative shader compilation cases as well. In such cases the
compilation is simply expected to fail.
