[WIP] First rushed attempt getting os x frame working

[einarf]

Work in progress

Leaving this PR here hanging for a bit to share what I have done so far.

If anyone have any input on how to get the surface of the tkinter window and register it in the context?

CGLSetSurface connects a surface that is part of a window to a GL context

[einarf]

I have no idea yet. Thanks for the links. Will add that to the list of things to dig into.

Can let this PR hang here for a while. We can merge it if I give up this attempt, but we should probably disable the darwin import.

An alternative is using AGL : https://developer.apple.com/documentation/agl/agl

Probabably a good idea to do a deep dive into the internals in TkInter. I'll make a Frame implementation for both cgl and agl. Time will see what works out.

The togl 2.0 source is using agl and is a great reference!

[einarf]

Still have not forgotten about this one. I think using agl is the right path. Still doing local experiments for now until I figure out the best solution.

[einarf]

AGL seem to be the way to go. I just need to figure out how to get the proper window pointer.
