Hans-Kristian Arntzen 38a305bb6e Vulkan: Add proc address query functions to HW interface.
Allows cores to avoid linking directly against any extra library.
Update HW interface version to 2 to signal ABI change.

Note that the interface is still experimental and can change at any time.

*
* If num_semaphores is non-zero, the frontend will wait for the
* semaphores provided to be signaled before using the results further
* in the pipeline.
*
* Using semaphores is optional for synchronization purposes,
* but if not using
* semaphores, an image memory barrier in vkCmdPipelineBarrier
* should be used in the graphics_queue.
* Example:
*
* vkCmdPipelineBarrier(cmd,
* srcStageMask = VK_PIPELINE_STAGE_ALL_GRAPHICS_BIT,
* dstStageMask = VK_PIPELINE_STAGE_FRAGMENT_SHADER_BIT,
* image_memory_barrier = {
* srcAccessMask = VK_ACCESS_COLOR_ATTACHMENT_WRITE_BIT,
* dstAccessMask = VK_ACCESS_SHADER_READ_BIT,
* });
*
* The use of pipeline barriers instead of semaphores is encouraged
* as it is simpler and more fine-grained. A layout transition
* must generally happen anyways which requires a
* pipeline barrier.
*
* The image passed to set_image must have imageUsage flags set to at least
* VK_IMAGE_USAGE_TRANSFER_SRC_BIT and VK_IMAGE_USAGE_SAMPLED_BIT.
* The core will naturally want to use flags such as
* VK_IMAGE_USAGE_COLOR_ATTACHMENT_BIT and/or
* VK_IMAGE_USAGE_TRANSFER_DST_BIT depending
* on how the final image is created.
*
* The image must also have been created with MUTABLE_FORMAT bit set if
* 8-bit formats are used, so that the frontend can reinterpret sRGB
* formats as it sees fit.
*
* Images passed to set_image should be created with TILING_OPTIMAL.
* The image layout should be transitioned to either
* VK_IMAGE_LAYOUT_GENERIC or VK_IMAGE_LAYOUT_SHADER_READ_ONLY_OPTIMAL.
* The actual image layout used must be set in image_layout.
*
* The image must be a 2D texture which may or not be layered
* and/or mipmapped.
*
* The image must be suitable for linear sampling.
* While the image_view is typically the only field used,
* the frontend may want to reinterpret the texture as sRGB vs.
* non-sRGB for example so the VkImageViewCreateInfo used to
* create the image view must also be passed in.
*
* The data in the pointer to the image struct will not be copied
* as the pNext field in create_info cannot be reliably deep-copied.
* The image pointer passed to set_image must be valid until
* retro_video_refresh_t has returned.
*
* If frame duping is used when passing NULL to retro_video_refresh_t,
* the frontend is free to either use the latest image passed to
* set_image or reuse the older pointer passed to set_image the
* frame RETRO_HW_FRAME_BUFFER_VALID was last used.
*
* Essentially, the lifetime of the pointer passed to
* retro_video_refresh_t should be extended if frame duping is used
* so that the frontend can reuse the older pointer.
*
* If frame duping is used, the frontend will not wait for any semaphores.

* frontend by calling e.g. vkAcquireNextImageKHR before calling
* retro_run().
*
* This index will correspond to which swapchain buffer is currently
* the active one.
*
* Knowing this index is very useful for maintaining safe asynchronous CPU
* and GPU operation without stalling.
*
* The common pattern for synchronization is to receive fences when
* submitting command buffers to Vulkan (vkQueueSubmit) and add this fence
* to a list of fences for frame number get_sync_index().
*
* Next time we receive the same get_sync_index(), we can wait for the
* fences from before, which will usually return immediately as the
* frontend will generally also avoid letting the GPU run ahead too much.
*
* After the fence has signaled, we know that the GPU has completed all
* GPU work related to work submitted in the frame we last saw get_sync_index().
*
* This means we can safely reuse or free resources allocated in this frame.
*
* In theory, even if we wait for the fences correctly, it is not technically
* safe to write to the image we earlier passed to the frontend since we're
* not waiting for the frontend GPU jobs to complete.
*
* The frontend will guarantee that the appropriate pipeline barrier
* in graphics_queue has been used such that
* VK_PIPELINE_STAGE_COLOR_ATTACHMENT_OUTPUT_BIT cannot
* start until the frontend is done with the image.

* structures ahead of time.
*
* While this value will typically remain constant throughout the
* applications lifecycle, it may for example change if the frontend
* suddently changes fullscreen state and/or latency.
*
* If this value ever changes, it is safe to assume that the device

* amortized into a single call. For this mode, semaphores in set_image
* will be ignored, so vkCmdPipelineBarrier must be used to synchronize
* the core and frontend.
*
* The command buffers in set_command_buffers are only executed once,
