Remove #include <KHR/khrplatform.h>
I've noticed that GLEW includes the <KHR/khrplatform.h>
header.
This header should not be included directly.

I'm not sure there is enough information here to take action on this. Can anyone shed further light?
Unfortunately, the link above is no longer valid.
Honestly, I don´t see any reason why this should not be included. From https://github.com/KhronosGroup/EGL-Registry/blob/57b4876de0f33677ece92dd9de0ef105ce69139d/api/KHR/khrplatform.h
* This file should be included as
* #include <KHR/khrplatform.h>
* by Khronos client API header files that use its types and defines.
Using it is actually the only way to guarantee matching API definitions across multiple headers. GLEW defines the API, and thus should use it.
Now, there may be a problem if one header does use it, and another does not, see e.g.: https://github.com/KhronosGroup/OpenGL-Registry/pull/183/files
The correct approach is obviously to use khrplatform.h
everywhere. In case this is not possible (because someone uses some outdated vendor GL header files, which use a different definition), it may work to only include khrplatform.h
in case e.g. GLByte has not been defined previously.
