Motivation: When discussing with @Jeroen-Bakker and @aras_p about how to
approach sorting when rendering Gaussian splats in Blender, we realised that
compute shaders could help there (and have many other use cases), and that also
due to Blender 4.0 being on OpenGL >= 4.3, we can now rely on compute shaders
existing.
This PR is an initial pass for that functionality. It comes with a Python example, which
runs a compute shader and saves the output to a texture, which is then rendered in the
viewport.
There is no exposed support for storage buffers yet, but I expect I'll be able to work on
them soon if this is accepted.
The newly added parts are:
1. `gpu.compute.dispatch()`
2. a way set the compute source to `GPUShaderCreateInfo`: `shader_info.compute_source()`
3. a way to set the image store for `GPUShaderCreateInfo`: `shader_info.image()`
4. a way to set the `local_group_size` for `GPUShaderCreateInfo`: `shader_info.local_group_size(x,y,z)`
5. a way to get `max_work_group_size` from capabilities: `gpu.capabilities.max_work_group_size_get(index)`
6. a way to get `max_work_group_count` from capabilities: `gpu.capabilities.max_work_group_count_get(index)`
