Editing EXT CSQC COPYTOTEXTURE

===Extension Proposal===
Suggested extension for copying a portion of the screen to a texture in client side QuakeC. This will essentially be a wrapper for the OpenGL function ''glCopyTexImage2D'' (http://www.opengl.org/documentation/specs/man_pages/hardcopy/GL/html/gl/copyteximage2d.html).

Builtin functions:
<pre>string csqc_allocdynamictexture();</pre>

Allocates a dynamic texture, returns a string which can be used as any precached texture could be.

<pre>vector csqc_copytotexture(float x, float y, float w, float h, string texture);</pre>

''x, y, w, and h'' specify the portion of the screen from which to copy pixels. They use the exact same coordinate space as ''R_SetView'' does for the view portal, were the top left of the screen is 0, 0, and the width and height are vid_conwidth and vid_conheight respectively.

''texture'' specifies the name of the destination texture which will receive the new data. It must have been allocated with ''csqc_alloctexture''.

If the engine supports automatically precaching textures as soon as they are used, then the same should be implemented for this extension - the texture name will no longer need to have been precached with a dummy texture.

''glCopyTexImage2D'' requires that the destination texture have width and height be a power of two, though they don't have to be the same length. csqc_copytotexture should accept any width and height, and automatically use a larger texture. The vector returned is the s and t texture coordinates of the corner of the desired texture within the larger power-of-2 sided texture.

====Possible Issues====
glCopyTexImage2D copies pixels upside-down compared to quake's 2D coordinate system:

<tt>Pixel ordering is such that lower x and y screen coordinates correspond to	lower s	and t texture coordinates.</tt>

This means that the texture coordinates will be upside down in QuakeC.

I think the desired image will be aligned to the top left of the texture, but upside down. (It might be aligned to the bottom, have to check).
