Erik Faye-Lund 4ae273dcf4 mesa: make compressed-format emulation optional
There's good reasons to emulate compressed formats; mobile and desktop
HW generally have different ideas of what formats are worth the extra
silicon, so they support different formats based on the legacy they were
designed to support. This means we can get better application
compatibility by emulating these formats.

But, that comes at a price, namely that applications that supports
multiple formats don't really have a way to detect which ones are
natively supported and which ones are not. This means they might make
the wrong choice, and end up wasting memory and bandwidth when that
could have been avoided.

So let's make the emulation optional, by introducing a DRIconf variable
to disable it.

This intentionally still leaves in place transcoding support, because
that's still *probably* a win. Besides, those needs to be opted into
anyway.

Source
------

This repository lives at https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/mesa/mesa.
Other repositories are likely forks, and code found there is not supported.


Build & install
---------------

You can find more information in our documentation (`docs/install.rst
<https://docs.mesa3d.org/install.html>`_), but the recommended way is to use
Meson (`docs/meson.rst <https://docs.mesa3d.org/meson.html>`_):

.. code-block:: sh

  $ meson setup build
  $ ninja -C build/
  $ sudo ninja -C build/ install

appropriate, you should ask your question on `OFTC's #dri-devel
<irc://irc.oftc.net/dri-devel>`_, someone will redirect you if
necessary.
Remember that not everyone is in the same timezone as you, so it might
take a while before someone qualified sees your question.
