Fixed bug 4570 - Support Vulkan Portability rather than MoltenVK specifically
Dzmitry Malyshau
Current code, search paths, and error messages are written to only consider MoltenVK on macOS as a Vulkan Portability implementation. It's not the only implementation available to the users. gfx-portability [1] has been shown to run a number of titles well, including Dota2, Dolphin Emulator, and vkQuake3, often out-performing MoltenVK in frame rate and stability (see Dolphin benchmark [2]).
There is no reason for SDL to be that specific, it's not using any MVK-specific functions other than the WSI initialization ("VK_MVK_macos_surface"). gfx-portability exposes this extension as well, and a more generic WSI extension is in process. It would be good if SDL was written in a more generic way that expect a Vulkan Portability library as opposed to MoltenVK specifically.

revert the recent typecast assignment changes (see bug #4079)
also change the void* typedefs for the two vulkan function
pointers added in vulkan_internal.h into generic function
pointer typedefs.

Be clear that disabling Vulkan surface support disables the entire SDL Vulkan integration
