58b0ae84b5 renderer_vulkan: Make unconditional use of VK_KHR_timeline_semaphore
This reworks how host<->device synchronization works on the Vulkan
backend. Instead of "protecting" resources with a fence and signalling
these as free when the fence is known to be signalled by the host GPU,
use timeline semaphores.

Vulkan timeline semaphores allow use to work on a subset of D3D12
fences. As far as we are concerned, timeline semaphores are a value set
by the host or the device that can be waited by either of them.

Taking advantange of this, we can have a monolithically increasing
atomic value for each submission to the graphics queue. Instead of
protecting resources with a fence, we simply store the current logical
tick (the atomic value stored in CPU memory). When we want to know if a
resource is free, it can be compared to the current GPU tick.

This greatly simplifies resource management code and the free status of
resources should have less false negatives.

To workaround bugs in validation layers, when these are attached there's
a thread waiting for timeline semaphores.

6c53edd4d3 vulkan: Remove unnecessary includes
Reduces some header churn and reduces rebuilds when some header
internals change.

While we're at it we can also resolve a missing include in buffer_cache.

1fe7df4517 vk_descriptor_pool: Initial implementation
Create a large descriptor pool where we allocate all our descriptors
from. It has to be wide enough to support any pipeline, hence its large
numbers.

If the descritor pool is filled, we allocate more memory at that moment.
This way we can take advantage of permissive drivers like Nvidia's that
allocate more descriptors than what the spec requires.
