Integrate with vector_math

[bergwerf]

There is a pretty cool pub package for vector and matrix operations; vector_math (http://pub.dartlang.org/packages/vector_math). It would be awesome if you could integrate with this package so I can use the same types (e.g. it also has a Vector3List with a single Float32List backend).

Hi Herman (and Raymond):

I am working on this but since it is a rather big change breaking compatibility with older code
in rather dramatic way I was thinking of combining this with a WebGL 2.0 port.

Cheers,
Robert

Yeah, I think it makes sense to switch to vector_math too.

awesome!

I went ahead and did this in branch:
https://github.com/rhulha/ChronosGL/tree/NewShaderLogic

Note that this branch contains many incompatible API changes
beyond the vector_math changes.
I am also still exploring stuff like "phases" and do not consider the API fully stable.
In case of doubt have a look at the examples.

Not that this does not include anything related to WebGL 2.0.
Dartium is still at Chrome 45 equivalent so it might be while before we can
experiment with WebGL 2.0 and Dart.

@rhulha
I put a few "TODO(rhulha)" in places where I did not quite knew what to do.

I'll try to take a look but I am strapped for time :/

I consider this done now.
In addition to the vector_math changes there has been a lot of "churn" in the API.
I am happy with the new abstractions, so they should be quite stable now.

Please have a look at the high level overview here: https://github.com/rhulha/ChronosGL/blob/NewShaderLogic/class_glossary.md
and check the examples to see how things work in detail.
