-
Dual kawase blur method from tryone144 as well as his new feature/dual_kawase branch which implements the dual kawase blur method on the experimental glx backend.
-
Rounded corners code from sdhand which is also ported to the experimetnal XRender backend.
-
New code for rounded corners (+borders) on the glx backend using GLSL frangment shader for both legacy and experimental backends

It's been a while since this fork had some work and the good people at the main picom branch merged some of this code into the main branch.
However, not all code / features have been merged, ATM the status is as per the below:
- Rounded corners on legacy backends (both "glx" and "xrender")
- Dual-kawase blur on experimental "glx" backend only
- Rounded corners with "--experimental-backends"
- Rounded borders on the legacy "glx" backend
- Rounded border rules on the legacy "glx" backend
- Dual-kawase blur on the legacy "glx" backend
Since this fork was released a few issues were opened for bugs that were perhaps fixed in the main branch but not on this one, while I always recommend using the main branch as a better strategy than using older forked code, since not all features were yet implemented in the main branch I thought it might still be useful to rebase this fork on the most current work of the main branch.
However, this fork has also been forked quite a few times (over 15), not being certain what work was done based on this fork or what new bugs the rebase will introduce I created a new branch (next-rebase) for the rebased code.
