/**
 * Native bindings to the ARB_half_float_pixel extension.
 * 
 * This extension introduces a new data type for half-precision (16-bit) floating-point quantities. The floating-point format is very similar to the IEEE
 * single-precision floating-point standard, except that it has only 5 exponent bits and 10 mantissa bits. Half-precision floats are smaller than full
 * precision floats and provide a larger dynamic range than similarly sized normalized scalar data types.
 * 
 * This extension allows applications to use half-precision floating-point data when specifying pixel data. It extends the existing image specification
 * commands to accept the new data type.
 * 
 * Floating-point data is clamped to [0, 1] at various places in the GL unless clamping is disabled with the ARB_color_buffer_float extension.
 * 
 * Requires {@link GL15 OpenGL 1.5}. Promoted to core in {@link GL30 OpenGL 3.0}.
