[OE-core] proposal: replace GLUT with FreeGLUT

[Neena Busireddy]

Hello,

GLUT is dead upstream for almost three years now ( https://cgit.freedesktop.org/mesa/glut/  ) and it makes sense to replace GLUT with FreeGLUT .
Some of the reasons to replace with FreeGLUT are listed here :
http://freeglut.sourceforge.net/

Also, current mesa-glut recipe does not generate GLUT library. I tested this when I enabled GLUT in mesa-demos.

I discussed this issue with Otavio and he suggested to replace GLUT with FreeGLUT and upgrade mesa-demos to 8.3.

Any suggestions or thoughts?


Thanks,
Neena
