Vulkan: Implement shader buffers descriptor cache. Implements a descriptor set cache for UBOs, SSBOs, and atomic counter buffers. Storage Images and framebuffer fetch input attachments are not yet included. Requires moving the buffer barrier handling into ContextVk, similarly to how we handle the barriers for Textures. The packed description key for the descriptors uses a "fast" vector with a basic minimum size. For most cases of a few buffers this will fit easily in stack memory, but for larger programs with many buffers we fit this into heap memory. The key has a large upper bound due to the high ES 3.2 requirements and the need to index several values such as the offset and binding size. We use dynamic offsets for uniform buffers when possible. This ensures applications like Manhattan 3.1 that use sets of common buffers with changing offsets hit the cache most of the time. Because of resource limits we pick at compilation time whether to use dynamic or static descriptor sets. Mostly this applies to tests that use a large number of uniform buffers. A future implementation could be smart and would recompile the program with heuristics to use a minimal number of dynamic indices. Reduces the number of descriptor set updates from ~300 -> ~30 per frame in Manhattan 3.1 and in Asphalt 9 from 900+ to as low as 0 per frame.
