* During pipeline configure the function would acquire some payload space from the descriptor update queue,
write the descriptor data on the GPU thread and give the scheduler a pointer to the beginning of said space to update it later.
TickFrame resets the payload cursor, used to track acquires, back to the beginning of the buffer.
This wasn't a problem before since WaitWorker was called at the end of the frame but now it is.
If a frame writes to a cursor before the scheduler catches up, it will crash
* To fix this the payload buffer has been increased to account for the in flight frames that are allowed to exist now.
TickFrame will switch between the payload spaces instead of resetting

Move descriptor lookup and update code to a separate thread. Delaying
this removes work from the main GPU thread and allows creating
descriptor layouts on another thread. This reduces a bit the workload
of the main thread when new pipelines are encountered.
The "VK" prefix predates the "Vulkan" namespace. It was carried around
the codebase for consistency. "VKDevice" currently is a bad alias with
"VkDevice" (only an upcase character of difference) that can cause
confusion. Rename all instances of it.
Migrates the video core code closer to enabling variable shadowing
warnings as errors.
This primarily sorts out shadowing occurrences within the Vulkan code.
The original idea of returning pointers is that handles can be moved.
The problem is that the implementation didn't take that in mind and made
everything harder to work with. This commit drops pointer to handles and
returns the handles themselves. While it is still true that handles can
be invalidated, this way we get an old handle instead of a dangling
pointer.
This problem can be solved in the future with sparse buffers.
The update descriptor is used to store in flat memory a large chunk of
staging data used to update descriptor sets through templates. It
provides a push interface to easily insert descriptors following the
current pipeline. The order used in the descriptor update template has
to be implicitly followed. We can catch bugs here using validation
layers.
