#34 File Extension for ARB vertex buffer object (VBO)

[Brian Leair]

Swig interface and updated typemaps to PyOpenGL
2.0.1.09 to add support for VBOs. Unless contains
updated NeHe lesson 45 and OpenGLContext test script

Okay, have reviewed and tried to integrate the patch for
2.0.2. I'm not really thrilled about initialising the
extension within the core GL, but I suppose it's the
cleanest solution at the moment.

The typemap for pointers:
%typemap(python, in) (GLvoid * pointer_or_offset,
_GL_Argument_Type arg_type)

does not seem to be working properly; the problem is that we
wind up always having to pass in a "treat pointer as
pointer" argument type for every pointer-setting call.
That's likely a SWIG 1.3.23 change? Don't know at the moment.

I moved the non-simple (pointer) typemap into complex
typemaps, as simple typemaps is more for the
brain-dead-simple stuff.
