gallium: extend resource_resolve to accommodate BlitFramebuffer
Resolve via glBlitFramebuffer allows resolving a sub-region of a renderbuffer to a different location in any mipmap level of some other texture, and, with a new extension, even scaling. Therefore, location and size parameters are needed. The mask parameter was added because resolving only depth or only stencil of a combined buffer is possible as well. Full information about the blit operation allows the drivers to take the most efficient path they possibly can.
