Vim syntax highlighting for OpenGL Shading Language

GLSL synatx highlighting is supported for:

- files with extensions supported by [Khronos reference compiler](https://github.com/KhronosGroup/glslang): `.vert`, `.tesc`, `.tese`, `.geom`, `.frag`, and `.comp`
- files with `.glsl` extension
- HTML `<script>` tags with `type` set to `x-shader-vertex` or `x-shader-fragment`

If you need support highlighting in files with other extensions (e.g. `.vs` and `.fs`) you can add it using [autocommand](http://vimdoc.sourceforge.net/htmldoc/autocmd.html#:autocmd):

```viml
" in your .vimrc (_vimrc for Windows)
autocmd! BufNewFile,BufRead *.vs,*.fs set ft=glsl
```

or using [modeline](http://vimdoc.sourceforge.net/htmldoc/options.html#modeline) in your shader files:

```glsl
// vim: set ft=glsl:
```

## Supported GLSL Versions

- OpenGL Shading Language: all versions from 1.10 to 4.50
- OpenGL ES Shading Language: versions 1.00 and 3.00
