Fix deferring global array initialization

The initial implementation of DeferGlobalInitializers did not take
HLSL corner cases into account. In particular, in case there was a
const-qualified array variable with an initializer that contained
elements that weren't constant folded, initialization would not be
deferred and the global scope of HLSL output would contain a call to
angle_construct_into_*().

On the other hand, deferring global initializers was also done in
cases where it wasn't necessary. Initializers of non-const qualified
array variables that could be written as HLSL literals by HLSL output
were unnecessarily deferred.

This patch fixes both of these issues: Now all global initializers are
potential candidates for deferral instead of just those where the
symbol has the EvqGlobal qualifier, and initializers that are
constructors taking only constant unions as parameters are not
unnecessarily deferred.

#ANGLE The goal of ANGLE is to allow users of multiple operating systems to seamlessly run WebGL and other OpenGL ES content by translating OpenGL ES API calls to one of the hardware-supported APIs available for that platform. ANGLE currently provides translation from OpenGL ES 2.0 to desktop OpenGL, Direct3D 9, and Direct3D 11. Support for translation from OpenGL ES 3.0 to all of these APIs is nearing completion, and future plans include enabling validated ES-to-ES support.

ANGLE v1.0.772 was certified compliant by passing the ES 2.0.3 conformance tests in October 2011. ANGLE also provides an implementation of the EGL 1.4 specification.

ANGLE is used as the default WebGL backend for both Google Chrome and Mozilla Firefox on Windows platforms. Chrome uses ANGLE for all graphics rendering on Windows, including the accelerated Canvas2D implementation and the Native Client sandbox environment.

Portions of the ANGLE shader compiler are used as a shader validator and translator by WebGL implementations across multiple platforms. It is used on Mac OS X, Linux, and in mobile variants of the browsers. Having one shader validator helps to ensure that a consistent set of GLSL ES shaders are accepted across browsers and platforms. The shader translator can be used to translate shaders to other shading languages, and to optionally apply shader modifications to work around bugs or quirks in the native graphics drivers. The translator targets Desktop GLSL, Direct3D HLSL, and even ESSL for native GLES2 platforms.
