Add 16f option to render_bit_depth command

Browse source 
This change adds an option to let sway render onto XBGR16161616F
buffers, assuming hardware and drivers support this. Such half-float
formats may be used in the future for applications (including nested
Sway) to submit high-dynamic-range buffers.

Using this option is even more likely to reveal bugs in graphics
drivers, monitors, and screenshot tools than 'render_bit_depth 10'.

default is currently 8 bits per channel. The "16f" option requests
color channels encoded in half-precision floating point format.
Setting higher values will not have an effect if hardware and software lack
support for such bit depths. Successfully increasing the render bit depth
