Added support for using the GLAD OpenGL loader library. To enable set GL_WITH_GLAD CMake option to ON (OFF by default).

Hi @bensanmorris and thanks for the PR. I'm not familiar with the GLAD framework. Could you explain what it is wna dwhy this would be needed?

bensanmorris commented 4 years ago

Hi rougier. GLAD is another OpenGL extension wrangler library and is an alternative to GLEW. Unlike GLEW, GLAD supports both OpenGL and OpenGL ES and provides a handy webservice for generating the required OpenGL / ES support along with additional extensions of interest. I've tested the PR on Windows, Linux, macOS and Android.
