=== Description
This extension adds some line rasterization features that are commonly used
in CAD applications and supported in other APIs like OpenGL.
Bresenham-style line rasterization is supported, smooth rectangular lines
(coverage to alpha) are supported, and stippled lines are supported for all
three line rasterization modes.

=== Issues
1) Do we need to support Bresenham-style and smooth lines with more than one
rasterization sample? i.e. the equivalent of glDisable(GL_MULTISAMPLE) in
OpenGL when the framebuffer has more than one sample?
*RESOLVED*: Yes.
For simplicity, Bresenham line rasterization carries forward a few
restrictions from OpenGL, such as not supporting per-sample shading, alpha
to coverage, or alpha to one.
