2016-05-19docs: update v0 languages for device layer deprecationChia-I Wu
Clarify that a layer's vkEnumerateInstanceLayerProperties vkEnumerateInstanceExtensionProperties - should enumerate the layer itself vkEnumerateDeviceLayerProperties - is deprecated vkEnumerateDeviceExtensionProperties - must handle all layers by chaining vkCreateInstance - `pNext` handling is covered by the spec vkCreateDevice - allow validation layers to validate layer and extension names Clarify that the layer library's vkEnumerateInstanceLayerProperties vkEnumerateInstanceExtensionProperties - are not used by the desktop loader - can be aliases to the layer's versions when the layer library contains only one layer vkEnumerateDeviceLayerProperties vkEnumerateDeviceExtensionProperties - are not used by the desktop loader vkGetInstanceProcAddr - mention that the special cases for vkCreateDevice and device commands are for compatibility

2016-04-22doc: formalize the current loader-layer interfaceChia-I Wu
Expand the section "Discovery of layer entry points" into "Layer Library Interface". In general, the new section defines an interface that allows a loader to discover and insert layers while staying compliant. Other sections have additional guidelines for layers to follow.

2016-03-03misc: Remove lunarg_debug_marker extensionJon Ashburn
This device extensions was not completely supported in any layer. It had partial support (intercept) in draw_state and device_limits. This extension is being changed and has a formal proposal in Khronos as debug_marker_ext. Removing the existing extension since it is deprecated; once the debug_marker_ext gets registered by Khronos, layers might want to start using the ObjectTag/ObjectName commands to supplement error report messages in debug_report_ext. Since debug_report_ext might get changed as part of Khronos review, don't add it yet.
