This patch adjusts the interactive scenarios of the gems repository to
use the depot. This has three immediate benefits. First, once the depot
is populated with binary archives, the start time of the scenarios
becomes very quick because most dependency checks and build steps are
side-stepped. Second, the run scripts become more versatile. In
particular, run scripts that were formerly supported on base-linux only
(nit_fader, decorator, menu_view) have become usable on all base
platforms that have a 'drivers_interactive' package defined. Finally,
the run scripts have become much shorter.
Issue #2339
This patch adjusts the run script in two ways:
It removes the reliance on init's formerly built-in resource-request
handling by increasing the RAM quota for the backdrop instances. Since
commit "init: explicit response to resource requests", init no longer
hands out slack memory automatically.
Second, it makes sure that the backdrop appears under the precise label
"backdrop" at nitpicker by facilitating init's label-rewriting feature.
Without explicitly setting the label to "backdrop", nitpicker observes
the label "backdrop -> backdrop" (the first part comes from init, the
second part comes from the nitpicker-session argument specified by
backdrop itself). However, the client is only considered as default
background if labeled as "backdrop" (see nitpicker's '_create_session')
implementation.
Issue #2352
The init component used to create the CPU/RAM/PD/ROM sessions (the child
environment) for its children by issuing session requests to its parent,
which is typically core. This policy was hard-wired. This patch enables
the routing of the environment sessions of the children of init
according to the configured routing policy.
Because there is no hard-wired policy regarding the environment sessions
anymore, routes to respective services must be explicitly declared in
the init configuration. For this reason, the patch adjusts several run
scripts in this respect.
This patch removes the outdated '<if-args>' special handling of session
labels. The '<if-args>' feature will eventually be removed completely
(ref #2250)

Issue #2250
This patch unconditionally applies the labeling of sessions and thereby
removes the most common use case of 'Child_policy::filter_session_args'.
Furthermore, the patch removes an ambiguity of the session labels of
sessions created by the parent of behalf of its child, e.g., the PD
session created as part of 'Child' now has the label "<child-name>"
whereas an unlabeled PD-session request originating from the child
has the label "<child-name> -> ". This way, the routing-policy of
'Child_policy::resolve_session_request' can differentiate both cases.
As a consequence, the stricter labeling must now be considered wherever
a precise label was specified as a key for a session route or a server-
side policy selection. The simplest way to adapt those cases is to use a
'label_prefix' instead of the 'label' attribute. Alternatively, the
'label' attribute may used by appending " -> " (note the whitespace).
Fixes#2171
This patch adds two new painters located at gems/include/polygon_gfx.
Both painters draw convex polygons with an arbirary number of points.
The shaded-polygon painter interpolates the color and alpha values
whereas the textured-polygon painter applies a texture to the polygon.
The painters are accompanied by simplistic 3D routines located at
gems/include/nano3d/ and a corresponding example (gems/run/nano3d.run).
