glTF should provide API information about gltf

[pjcozzi]

For glTF 1.0, we really only need the "WebGL : 1.0" profile. This will work for WebGL, OpenGL ES 2.0, and OpenGL compatibility profile (unfortunately still widely used).

However, moving forward, we definitively want other profiles to support the modern GLSL on desktop and other features like binary shaders, new shader stages, 32-bit indices, etc.

A client could negotiate this via a rest API.

Excellent.

profile is part of the new schema. @fabrobinet can we close this?
