## What
Addresses a long-standing issue of doing the blending operations in sRGB
space. Currently, the input HSL colors are provided in sRGB space and
converted to linear in the vertex shader. Conversion back to sRGB, which
is required on most platforms today, happens at the very end of the
pipeline when writing into sRGB render target.
Note-1: in the future we may consider doing HSL -> sRGB -> Linear
transform on CPU before feeding into shaders. However, I don't expect
any significant difference here given that we are likely bound by fill
rate and pixel shaders, anyway.
Note-2: the graphics stack is programmed to detect if the platform
supports presenting in linear color space and avoids converting to sRGB
at the end in this case. However, on my Z13 laptop this isn't supported
by the RADV driver.
