common, vo_opengl: add/use helper for formatted strings on the stack
Seems like I really like this C99 idiom. No reason not to generalize it do snprintf(). Introduce mp_tprintf(), which basically this idiom to snprintf(). This macro looks like it returns a string that was allocated with alloca() on the caller site, except it's portable C99/C11. (And unlike alloca(), the result is valid only within block scope.) Use it in 2 places in the vo_opengl code. But it has the potential to make a whole bunch of weird looking code look slightly nicer.
