Include GLES 3.0 and 3.1 headers when available
In ES builds configure will now check for OpenGL ES 3.0 and 3.1 availability. This allows qopengl.h to include the correct header and, by defining QT_OPENGL_ES_3 and QT_OPENGL_ES_3_1, the OpenGL wrappers can provide support for MapBuffer, VAOs, etc. on GLES 3.0+ too. Right now this is not possible since the only standard way to use an ES function specific to a given version is to use the function directly. The extension mechanism (eglGetProcAddress and friends), that is often used in desktop GL, is not available for such functions. [ChangeLog][QtGui] QtGui's OpenGL headers are now automatically including the highest available header (gl31.h, gl3.h or gl2.h) in OpenGL ES builds.
