vo_opengl: add ginseng upscaler

This is a variation of ewa_lanczos that is sinc-windowed instead of
jinc-windowed. Results are pretty similar, but the logic is simpler.
This could potentially replace the ugly ewa_lanczos code.

It's hard to tell, but from comparing stills I think this one has
slightly less ringing than regular ewa_lanczos.
