375: Use callback for `request_adapter` r=kvark a=grovesNL For now this is mostly a signature change which allows us to start using a callback for `request_adapter`. Once we have an event loop, the callback could be scheduled to make this asynchronous. At that point the examples and server would have to be updated, because they currently rely on the callback running immediately (inline). The reason for this change is that `request_adapter` is supposed to return a `Promise` in JS, so we can represent it with callbacks at the C API, and `Future` in Rust (though we'll probably keep using callbacks initially). I also changed `request_adapter` to provide an adapter with `AdapterId::ERROR` when no adapters are available, so we can add basic error handling to wgpu-rs (https://github.com/gfx-rs/wgpu-rs/issues/117).

This is an active GitHub mirror of the WebGPU native implementation in Rust, which now lives in Mozilla-central. Issues and pull requests are accepted, but we merge them in m-c manually and then sync to GitHub instead of landing directly here.
WebGPU
This is an experimental WebGPU implementation as a native static library. It's written in Rust and is based on gfx-hal and Rendy libraries. The corresponding WebIDL specification can be found at gpuweb project.
The implementation consists of the following parts:
wgpu-native- the native implementation of WebGPU as a C API librarywgpu-remote- remoting layer to work with WebGPU across the process boundaryffi- the C headers generated by cbindgen for both of the libraries
