            Note that this class is abstract - the particular
            RenderSystem that is in use at the time will create
            a concrete subclass of this. Note that the concrete
            class will be available via the abstract singleton
            obtained from TextureManager::getSingleton(), but
            you should not assume that it is available until you
            have a) initialised Ogre (after selecting a RenderSystem
            and calling initialise from the Root object), and b)
            created at least one window - this may be done at the
            same time as part a if you allow Ogre to autocreate one.

            Not all texture format are supports filtering by the hardware, i.e. some
            cards support floating point format, but it doesn't supports filtering on
            the floating point texture at all, or only a subset floating point formats
            have flitering supported.
        @par
            In the case you want to write shader to work with floating point texture, and
            you want to produce better visual quality, it's necessary to flitering the
            texture manually in shader (potential requires four or more texture fetch
            instructions, plus several arithmetic instructions) if filtering doesn't
            supported by hardware. But in case on the hardware that supports floating
            point filtering natively, it had better to adopt this capability for
            performance (because only one texture fetch instruction are required) and
            doesn't loss visual quality.
        @par
            This method allow you queries hardware texture filtering capability to deciding
            which verion of the shader to be used. Note it's up to you to write multi-version
            shaders for support various hardware, internal engine can't do that for you
            automatically.
        @note
            Under GL, texture filtering are always supported by driver, but if it's not
            supported by hardware natively, software simulation will be used, and you
            will end up with very slow speed (less than 0.1 fps for example). To slove
            this performance problem, you must disable filtering manually (by use
            <b>filtering none</b> in the material script's texture_unit section, or
            call TextureUnitState::setTextureFiltering with TFO_NONE if populate

        Why do we do this? Well, it's because the Singleton
        implementation is in a .h file, which means it gets compiled
        into anybody who includes it. This is needed for the
        Singleton template to work, but we actually only want it
        compiled into the implementation of the class based on the
        Singleton, not all of them. If we don't change this, we get
        link errors when trying to use the Singleton-based class from
        an outside dll.
        @par
        This method just delegates to the template version anyway,
        but the implementation stays in this single compilation unit,
        preventing link errors.
