Title: Caching of GLSL uniform locations (via Parameter objects)

I've added caching of GLSL uniform locations to save the overhead of the string hash check in the driver. Not sure if this is something that you're interested in, but I've at least done this much. Feel free to integrate it if it interests you. I won't be offended if you decide not to use it. :)

Oh, and I switched which GL constant is checked for max texture image units. That one is a straight-up fix, from what I can tell. I'd recommend grabbing that commit even if you don't want the parameter cache stuff, since it's typically the difference between using just 8 textures, or as many as the card can actually support.
