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.
preserve_contents was always true. We can't assume we don't have to
preserve clears because scissored and color masked clears exist.
This removes preserve_contents and assumes it as true at all times.

yuzu was already using the header for interpolation, but it was missing
the FragCoord.w multiplication described in the linked pull request.
This commit finally removes the FragCoord.w == 1.0f hack from the shader
decompiler.
While we are at it, this commit renames some enumerations to match
Nvidia's documentation (linked below) and fixes component declaration
order in the shader program header (z and w were swapped).

The intention behind a Vulkan wrapper is to drop Vulkan-Hpp.
The issues with Vulkan-Hpp are:
- Regular breaks of the API.
- Copy constructors that do the same as the aggregates (fixed recently)
- External dynamic dispatch that is hard to remove
- Alias KHR handles with non-KHR handles making it impossible to use
smart handles on Vulkan 1.0 instances with extensions that were included
on Vulkan 1.1.
- Dynamic dispatchers silently change size depending on preprocessor
definitions. Different files will have different dispatch definitions,
generating all kinds of hard to debug memory issues.
In other words, Vulkan-Hpp is not "production ready" for our needs and
this wrapper aims to replace it without losing RAII and exception
safety.
Changes the GraphicsContext to be managed by the GPU core. This
eliminates the need for the frontends to fool around with tricky
MakeCurrent/DoneCurrent calls that are dependent on the settings (such
as async gpu option).
This also refactors out the need to use QWidget::fromWindowContainer as
that caused issues with focus and input handling. Now we use a regular
QWidget and just access the native windowHandle() directly.
Another change is removing the debug tool setting in FrameMailbox.
Instead of trying to block the frontend until a new frame is ready, the
core will now take over presentation and draw directly to the window if
the renderer detects that its hooked by NSight or RenderDoc
Lastly, since it was in the way, I removed ScopeAcquireWindowContext and
replaced it with a simple subclass in GraphicsContext that achieves the
same result
