glsl: implement loop unrolling for simple 'for' loops
Loops such as this will be unrolled:
for (i = 0; i < 4; ++i) {
body;
}
where 'body' isn't too large.
This also helps to fix the issue reported in bug #19190. The problem there
is indexing vector types with a variable index. For example:
vec4 v;
v[2] = 1.0; // equivalent to v.z = 1.0
v[i] = 2.0; // variable index into vector!!
Since the for-i loop can be unrolled, we can avoid the problems associated
with variable indexing into a vector (at least in this case).
