Weighted, Blended Order-Independent Transparency algorithm has been added rasterization pipeline.
In contrast to classical blending transparency it makes transparent objects look independent
from point of view. It also gives better depth occlusion when being used together with a weight factor
based on value of a GL depth buffer. The feature supports desktop OpenGL, OpenGL ES 3.0, ANGLE
and can be used together with MSAA on desktop GL.
To be used it require availability of:
1) Shaders pipeline.
2) Floating point color format for framebuffer (GL_ARB_color_buffer_float).
3) Multiple render targets (GL_ARB_draw_buffers).
Patch does not modify API and does not require application porting.
It adds new rendering options to Graphic3d_RenderingParams structure:
a) Transparency method from enumeration.
b) Scalar factor [0-1] controlling influence of a fragment's depth to its visibility.
Patch also simplifies processing of transparent objects for standard method:
rendering priority of transparent graphical structures is managed automatically,
therefore there is no need to care about it at application's side.

OpenGl_VertexBuffer::bindAttribute() - activate normalization for non-GL_FLOAT types,
since color attribute is defined as 32-bit vector of 4 unsigned byte values.
OpenGl_Context - add methods SetColor4fv() and SetPointSize()
for parameters redirection to active GLSL program
(as alternative to glColor4fv() and glPointSize()).
OpenGl_ShaderProgram - define default precision for float types

behavior on systems without VBO (compatibility with broken OpenGL drivers on Windows).
OpenGl_PrimitiveArray - use OpenGl_VertexBufferCompat when VBO is unavailable,
remove duplicated code. Use OpenGl_VertexBuffer::HasNormalAttribute()
method to activate lighting.
