gl_arb_decompiler: Use NV_shader_buffer_{load,store} on assembly shaders

NV_shader_buffer_{load,store} is a 2010 extension that allows GL applications
to use what in Vulkan is known as physical pointers, this is basically C
pointers. On GLASM these is exposed through the LOAD/STORE/ATOM
instructions.

Up until now, assembly shaders were using NV_shader_storage_buffer_object.
These work fine, but have a (probably unintended) limitation that forces
us to have the limit of a single stage for all shader stages. In contrast,
with NV_shader_buffer_{load,store} we can pass GPU addresses to the
shader through local parameters (GLASM equivalent uniform constants, or
push constants on Vulkan). Local parameters have the advantage of being
per stage, allowing us to generate code without worrying about binding
overlaps.
