GOODNIGHT, SWEET PRINCE.

No semantic change, baby.

Follow-up to #186556 (and its tracking issue #186554), where I deprecated one of the worst landmines in Impeller by absorbing OpenGL ES's Y-axis difference into the vertex stage and pinned Texture::GetYCoordScale() to 1.0. Every call site is now passing 1.0 and every IPRemapCoords call reduces to identity, so this PR removes the cruft. :)

Pre-launch Checklist

Follow-up to flutter#186556, which absorbed GLES's Y-axis difference into the vertex stage and pinned Texture::GetYCoordScale() to 1.0. With every call site now passing 1.0 and every IPRemapCoords call reducing to identity, this PR deletes the cruft: the y_coord_scale parameter from the IPSample helpers in texture.glsl, the *_y_coord_scale uniform field from every affected vertex and fragment shader, the IPRemapCoords helper (and the now-empty conversions.glsl), the C++ RemapQuadCoords helper in gaussian_blur_filter_contents.cc, the frame_info.*_y_coord_scale = ...->GetYCoordScale() assignments in 21 callers, the dead DCHECK branch in texture_contents.cc, and Texture::GetYCoordScale() (plus its TextureGLES override).

It looks like this pull request may not have tests. Please make sure to add tests or get an explicit test exemption before merging.

If you are not sure if you need tests, consider this rule of thumb: the purpose of a test is to make sure someone doesn't accidentally revert the fix. Ask yourself, is there anything in your PR that you feel it is important we not accidentally revert back to how it was before your fix?

Reviewers: Read the Tree Hygiene page and make sure this patch meets those guidelines before LGTMing. If you believe this PR qualifies for a test exemption, contact "@test-exemption-reviewer" in the #hackers channel in Discord (don't just cc them here, they won't see it!). The test exemption team is a small volunteer group, so all reviewers should feel empowered to ask for tests, without delegating that responsibility entirely to the test exemption group.

Code Review

This pull request removes the Y-coordinate scaling logic (y_coord_scale and GetYCoordScale) across Impeller's shaders, textures, and rendering contents, simplifying texture sampling coordinates. The review feedback highlights two instances in atlas_contents.cc where removing the texture_sampler_y_coord_scale assignment leaves a declared frame_info variable completely uninitialized, which could lead to rendering issues if it is bound to the vertex shader.

ahh, that code review was warm and fuzzy.

LGTM, CI isn't happy about the formatting though.

Apply clang-format to the gradient and helper shaders (whitespace/layout only, no semantic change) and refresh impeller/tools/malioc.json so the perf baseline reflects the removal of the *_y_coord_scale uniforms (uniform_registers_used drops by ~2 across the affected shaders).
