mesa: allow MESA_GL_VERSION_OVERRIDE to override the API type
Change the format to MAJOR.MINOR[FC] For example: 2.1, 3.0FC, 3.1 The FC suffix indicates a forward compatible context, and is only valid for versions >= 3.0. Examples: 2.1: GL Legacy/Compatibility context 3.0: GL Legacy/Compatibility context 3.0FC: GL Core Profile context + Forward Compatible 3.1: GL Core Profile context 3.1FC: GL Core Profile context + Forward Compatible Signed-off-by: Jordan Justen <jordan.l.justen@intel.com> Reviewed-by: Chad Versace <chad.versace@linux.intel.com> Reviewed-by: Eric Anholt <eric@anholt.net>
