When we have multiple command buffers in flight, we need to make
sure we don't start rendering before the previous texture uploads
are complete.

Before re-using a VkCommandBuffer, we need to wait for its
operations to complete. Right now we unconditionally wait for
rendering to complete in vulkan_end(), however we have plans to
fix this [1]. To fully avoid blocking, we need to handle multiple
command buffers in flight at the same time (e.g. for multi-output,
or for rendering followed by texture uploads).
Implement a pool of command buffers. When we need to render, we
pick a command buffer from the pool which has completed its
operations. If we don't find one, try to allocate a new command
buffer. If we don't have slots in the pool anymore, block like we
did before.

Up until now we were using a VkFence for GPU-to-CPU
synchronization. This has some limitations that become a blocker
when trying to have multiple command buffers in flight at once
(e.g. for multi-output). It's desirable to implement a command
buffer pool [1], but VkFence cannot be used to track command buffer
completion for individual subpasses.
Let's just switch to timeline semaphores [2], which fix this issue,
make synchronization a lot more ergonomic and are a core Vulkan 1.2
feature.

Avoids the need to open-code the realloc() logic.

In wlroots we add comments near struct wl_list members to indicate
which type it's linked to. The Vulkan renderer had some comments
with mistakes, and some members without a comment.

This was unused. Even if it was, it'd be better to have bool fields
instead.

Avoids having to walk the list of all textures.

Avoids having to walk the list containing all of the render buffers.

We don't need to store the list of enabled extensions.
While at it, rename variables to be less confusing.

These are unused.

They are never used in practice, which makes all of our flag
handling effectively dead code. Also, APIs such as KMS don't
provide a good way to deal with the flags. Let's just fail the
DMA-BUF import when clients provide flags.

This new renderer is implemented with the existing wlr_renderer API
(which is known to be sub-optimal for some operations). It's not
used by default, but users can opt-in by setting WLR_RENDERER=vulkan.
The renderer depends on VK_EXT_image_drm_format_modifier and
VK_EXT_physical_device_drm.
