OpenGL: documentation for the builtin GPU shaders

This is intended to help developers to know how and when to use each shader.
There are plenty of undocumented shaders, but it's a matter of filling them in.

The script I used to quickly find the related shaders for a const is: P700

Original patch: D2318
