ASTC texture decoding is currently handled by a CPU decoder for GPU's without native ASTC decoding support (most desktop GPUs). This is the cause for noticeable performance degradation in titles which use the format extensively.
This commit adds support to accelerate ASTC decoding using a compute shader on OpenGL for GPUs without native support.
The current texture cache has several points that hurt maintainability
and performance. It's easy to break unrelated parts of the cache
when doing minor changes. The cache can easily forget valuable
information about the cached textures by CPU writes or simply by its
normal usage.The current texture cache has several points that hurt
