DESCRIPTION
     gluBuild1DMipmaps builds a series of prefiltered 1-D texture maps of
     decreasing resolutions called a mipmap. This is used for the antialiasing
     of texture mapped primitives.

     A return value of 0 indicates success, otherwise a GLU error code is
     returned (see gluErrorString).

     Initially, the width of data is checked to see if it is a power of two.
     If not, a copy of data is scaled up or down to the nearest power of two.
     This copy will be used for subsequent mipmapping operations described
     below. (If width is exactly between powers of 2, then the copy of data
     will scale upwards.)  For example, if width is 57 then a copy of data
     will scale up to 64 before mipmapping takes place.

     Then, proxy textures (see glTexImage1D) are used to determine if the
     implementation can fit the requested texture. If not, width is
     continually halved until it fits.

     Next, a series of mipmap levels is built by decimating a copy of data in
     half until size 1 is reached. At each level, each texel in the halved
     mipmap level is an average of the corresponding two texels in the larger
     mipmap level.

     glTexImage1D is called to load each of these mipmap levels.  Level 0 is a
     copy of data. The highest level is log2(width).  For example, if width is
     64 and the implementation can store a texture of this size, the following
     mipmap levels are built: 64x1, 32x1, 16x1, 8x1, 4x1, 2x1 and 1x1. These
     correspond to levels 0 through 6, respectively.

     See the glTexImage1D reference page for a description of the acceptable
     values for the type parameter. See the glDrawPixels reference page for a
     description of the acceptable values for the data parameter.

NOTES
     Note that there is no direct way of querying the maximum level. This can
     be derived indirectly via glGetTexLevelParameter. First, query for the
     width actually used at level 0. (The width may not be equal to width
     since proxy textures might have scaled it to fit the implementation.)
     Then the maximum level can be derived from the formula log2(width).

ERRORS
     GLUINVALIDVALUE is returned if width is < 1.

     GLUINVALIDENUM is returned if format or type are not legal.

     GLUINVALIDOPERATION is returned if type is GLUNSIGNEDBYTE332EXT
     and format is not GLRGB.

     GLUINVALIDOPERATION is returned if type is
     GLUNSIGNEDSHORT4444EXT and format is neither GLRGBA nor
     GLABGREXT.
