// A ResourcePool governs resources that are shared between multiple EffectChains;
// in particular, resources that might be expensive to acquire or hold. Thus,
// if you have many EffectChains, hooking them up to the same ResourcePool is
// probably a good idea.
//
// However, hooking an EffectChain to a ResourcePool extends the OpenGL context
// demands (see effect_chain.h) to that of the ResourcePool; all chains must then
// only be used in OpenGL contexts sharing resources with each other. This is
// the reason why there isn't just one global ResourcePool singleton (although
// most practical users will just want one).
//
// Thread-safety: All functions except the constructor and destructor can be
// safely called from multiple threads at the same time, provided they have
// separate (but sharing) OpenGL contexts.
//
// Memory management (only relevant if you use multiple contexts): Some objects,
// like FBOs, are not shareable across contexts, and can only be deleted from
// the context they were created in. Thus, you will need to tell the
// ResourcePool explicitly if you delete a context, or they will leak (and the
// ResourcePool destructor will assert-fail). See clean_context().
