All enum errors have (hopefully) been changed to a luax_enumerror, which has a
fixed error message. If additionally a list of valid options is passed, it
lists that in the error message. For every enum error with few options I've
implemented this using a getConstants call.
This solution has been designed specifically to reduce the number of template
instantiations (as I've been told that was a concern). All new template code
happens in places where there already was an instantiation of the relevant
StringMap. Of course there is still std::vector<std::string>...

- Added an optional mipmap index argument to the non-table variant of love.graphics.setCanvas, and an optional ‘mipmap’ field to the table variant.
- Canvas:setMipmapFilter now works.
- Added Canvas:generateMipmaps.
- Added Canvas:getMipmapMode.
- Added a new ‘mipmaps’ enum field to the table passed into love.graphics.newCanvas. Accepted values are “none” (default), “manual”, and “auto”.
If a Canvas has the manual mipmap mode, you will either need to render to a mipmap level or call Canvas:generateMipmaps. If it has the auto mode, mipmaps will be automatically generated after rendering to that Canvas. Generating mipmaps is not free.

- Add Texture:setDepthSampleMode(comparemode). Only works on textures with depth pixel formats. A texture with the depth sample mode set will only work with a depth sampler.
- Add DepthImage, DepthArrayImage, and DepthCubeImage sampler keywords to glsl3.

Also fixed Canvas MSAA (resolves issue #1271).
stencil-formatted Canvases can’t be drawn, and can only be used as the value for a new ‘depthstencil’ field to the table-argument variant of love.graphics.setCanvas.

Added love.graphics.drawLayer(texture, layerindex, …). ‘texture’ must be an array texture.
Added SpriteBatch:add/setLayer.
Added Quad:get/setLayer. This applies to array textures that are drawn without specifying an explicit layer index in the draw call.
Added love.graphics.newQuad variants which have layer arguments.

branch : minor
- Add love.graphics.newArrayImage, newCubeImage, and newVolumeImage.
- Add love.graphics.newCanvas(w, h, layers) and newCanvas(w, h, layers, settings). Add ‘type’ field to the settings table of newCanvas.
- Add new love.graphics.setCanvas variants: setCanvas(canvas, slice), and setCanvas(canvastable) where canvastable is in the format: {{canvas1, layer=2}, {canvas2, face=5}}
- Add Texture:getTextureType, getDepth, getLayerCount, getMipmapCount, and getFormat.
- Remove Image:getData and Image:refresh.
- Add Image:replacePixels(imagedata [, slice] [, mipmap]).
- Update Canvas:newImageData to accept a slice argument.
- Add love.image.newCubeFaces(imagedata).

With the highdpi window flag enabled on a retina-capable display and OS, content should now appear to the user at the same size and in the same positions as with the flag disabled.
As a result, mouse and touch coordinates, Texture and graphics dimensions, and the graphics coordinate system now use pixel density-scaled units instead of pixels. Raw pixel units should generally only be used for things such as shader algorithms which execute per-pixel and rely on accurate pixel dimensions. love.window.fromPixels and friends typically don’t need to be used anymore.
Images, Canvases, and Fonts can have an optional explicit ‘pixel density’ set when creating them. This allows for easily loading high pixel density content which displays at the same size as regular or low pixel density content.
API changes:
- Added Texture:getPixelWidth/getPixelHeight/getPixelDimensions and Texture:getPixelDensity. Texture:getWidth/getHeight return the pixel density-scaled width and height (as it will appear on the screen when drawn) rather than the number of pixels on each texture dimension.
- Added love.graphics.getPixelWidth/getPixelHeight/getPixelDimensions.
- Added optional ‘pixeldensity’ field to the settings table parameter of love.graphics.newImage. It defaults to 1, or if the file the Image was loaded from has “@2x”, “@3x”, etc. at the end of its name, it uses that number as the pixel density scale by default.
- love.graphics.newCanvas now takes a table as its third parameter, with fields “format”, “msaa”, and “pixeldensity”. pixeldensity defaults to the main screen’s pixel density. The width and height parameters specify the visual size that the Canvas will be drawn at / can be drawn to (pixel density-scaled units).
- love.graphics.newVideo accepts a table as its second parameter, with optional fields “audio” and “pixeldensity”. pixeldensity defaults to 1.
- love.graphics.newFont variants have an optional pixeldensity parameter at the end of the argument list. For TrueType fonts this defaults to the current pixel density scale of the screen, and for BMFonts and ImageFonts this defaults to 1.
- Added Font:getPixelDensity.
- Renamed love.window.getPixelScale to love.window.getPixelDensity.

The above are batched together into a single draw call when called without other drawing calls in between, as long as the following criteria are met:
- The texture is the same.
- The primitive type is the same (points cannot be batched with non-points).
- The love.graphics state is the same (aside from the current color - i.e. setColor - and the transform state).
- The active shader’s uniform values are the same.
You can examine the ‘drawcalls’ field of love.graphics.getStats() to help determine if your code is allowing for optimum batching.

Instead of a global type enum and bitfield, all types now have their own
love::Type static member. This means they automatically assign their ids, build
their bitsets, etc. As a bonus, it simplifies wrapper code since most functions
already know which type they're pushing to or getting from lua, so they can
directly get the static member (if it's called 'type').

If mipmaps are enabled on image creation, the image will use the default mipmap filter (now 'nearest' by default.) Image:setMipmapFilter will error if the image was not created with mipmaps enabled.

The list includes RGBA with 4-bit components, RGBA with 10-bit R, G, and B components and a 2-bit alpha component, RGB with 9-bit RGB components and a 5-bit exponent component (for HDR rendering), and several more.
