gallium: add API for setting window rectangles
Window rectangles apply to all framebuffer operations, either in inclusive or exclusive mode. They may also be specified as part of a blit operation. In exclusive mode, any fragment inside any of the specified rectangles will be discarded. In inclusive mode, any fragment outside every rectangle will be discarded. The no-op state is to have 0 rectangles in exclusive mode.

As opposed to manually drawing a textured quad, this lets the pipe driver choose
the optimal method for blitting (like using a special 2D engine), and usually
offers, for example, accelerated stencil-only copies even where
