Proves out the viability of this style of implementation. Ideally we'd
have a more officially sanctioned way of doing similar things later :)
Unfortunately, the overhead removal is too great to ignore on target
platform. Makes use of a private (reserved) extension for now ...

Elden Ring does not detect the proper error code and create a new
pipeline library. Instead, create a fresh new library, which works
around the issue.
The game has a pattern of LoadPipeline -> if fail -> CreatePSO ->
StorePipeline. Sometimes, in the same process it will LoadLibrary from
its own cache (could explain some stutters),
so it's very useful to have this either way.

Just like handling min/maxImageExtent of 0, we can just fall back to
user buffers.
Elden Ring hits this case on application teardown.

Elden Ring in particular spam frees and allocates command pools despite
this being a very bad idea.
Add a simple 8-entry cache which seems to take care of it.

We can mark a descriptor as being SINGLE_DESCRIPTOR, which means we
only need one descriptor copy. This way, we can avoid doing somewhat
expensive work (every nanosecond counts here):
- Bitscan loop
- Read deep into d3d12_device guts (often a cache miss). The memory
index depends on the bitscan, which causes bubble.
When we have a single descriptor, we can just store the binding
information inline and avoid this jank.

Tune memory layout so that we can deduce various information without
making a single pointer dereference:
- d3d12_descriptor_heap*
- heap offset
- Pointer to various side data structures we need to keep around.
Instead of having one big 64 byte data structure with tons of padding,
tune it down to 32 + 8 bytes per descriptor of extra dummy data.
To make all of this work, use a somewhat clever encoding scheme for CPU
VA where lower bits store number of active bits used to encode
descriptor offset. From there, we can mask away bits to recover
d3d12_descriptor_heap. Metadata is stored inline in one big allocation,
and we can just offset from there based on extracted log2i_ceil(descriptor count).

For cases where games spam committed allocations and don't use
NOT_ZEROED. We still rely on zerovram behavior for initial backing which
should be enough in most cases.
Strictly speaking however, we are forced to clear the allocations every
time if application does not use the flag correctly.

Useful for Intel since Intel hardware cannot support more than 1M
descriptors in general, and opting in to correct behavior should improve
CPU overhead as well when copying descriptors.

This became basically a rewrite in the end, and it got too awkward to
split these commits in any meaningful way.
The goals here were primarily to:
- Support serializing SPIR-V and load SPIR-V.
To do this robustly requires a lot more validation and checks to make
sure end up compiling the same SPIR-V that we load from cache.
This is critical for performance when games have primed their pipeline
libraries and expect that loading a PSO should be fast. Without this,
we will hit vkd3d-shader for every PSO, causing very long load times.
- Implement the required validation for mismatched PSO descriptions.
- Rewrite the binary layout of the pipeline library for flexibility
concerns and performance.
If the pipeline library is mmap-ed from disk - which appears to be
the intended use - we only need to scan through the TOC to fully parse
the library contents.
From a flexibility concern, a blob needs to support inlined data,
but a library can use referential links. We introduce separate
hashmaps which store deduplicated SPIR-V and pipeline cache blobs,
which significantly drop memory and storage requirements.
For future improvements, it should be fairly easy to add information
which lets us avoid SPIR-V or pipeline cache data altogether if
relevant changes to Vulkan/drivers are made.

If we're going to create different SPIR-V files from what the

This key represents the variations of SPIR-V which would be generated
from otherwise identical inputs like DXBC blobs and root signatures.
Typically, changing VKD3D_CONFIG flags or enabled extensions will affect
this key. This ensures that we will not attempt to use a cached SPIR-V
file unless we can trust that the SPIR-V interface will match.

In DEATHLOOP, there is a render pass which renders out a simple image,
which is then directly followed by a compute dispatch, reading that
image. The image is still in RENDER_TARGET state, and color buffers are
*not* flushed properly on at least RADV, manifesting as a very
distracting glitch pattern. This is a game bug, but for the time being,
we have to workaround it, *sigh*.
For a simple workaround, we can detect patterns where we see these
events in succession:
- Color RT is started
- StateBefore == RENDER_TARGET is not observed
- Dispatch()
In particular, when entering the options menu, highly distracting
glitches are observed in the background.

HZD issues an aliasing barrier for an alias of a resource that it
still needs.
Because D3D12 requires you to call DiscardResource or a full resource
clear/copy, we can just rely on those to do the actual image layout
transition and treat the aliasing barrier as a pure sync + flush.
This behavior is also observed in a test case where D3D12 drivers
do not seem to discard / fast-clear anything in an aliasing barrier.
