Encode stroke vs fill as tag flags, thereby reducing the number of scene
elements. Encoding change only, no functional changes.
The previous Stroke and Fill commands are merged to one command,
FillColor. The encoding to annotated element is divergent, which is
fixed when annotated elements move to tag flags.

Commit 9afa9b86b6 added Rust support for
encoding flags into elements. This change adds support to shaders by
introducing variant tag structs:
struct VariantTag {
uint tag;
uint flags;
}
and returning them from Variant_tag functions.
It also adds a flags argument to write functions for enum variants that
include TagFlags.
No functionality changes.

FillImage is like Fill, except that it takes its color from one or
more image atlases.
kernel4 uses a single image for non-Vulkan hosts, and the dynamic sized array
of image descriptors on Vulkan.
A previous version of this commit used textures. I think images are a better
choice for piet-gpu, for several reasons:
- Texture sampling, in particular textureGrad, is slow on lower spec devices
such as Google Pixel. Texture sampling is particularly slow and difficult to
implement for CPU fallbacks.
- Texture sampling need more parameters, in particular the full u,v
transformation matrix, leading to a large increase in the command size. Since
all commands use the same size, that memory penalty is paid by all scenes, not
just scenes with textures.
- It is unlikely that piet-gpu will support every kind of fill for every
client, because each kind must be added to kernel4.
With FillImage, a client will prepare the image(s) in separate shader stages,
sampling and applying transformations and special effects as needed. Textures
that align with the output pixel grid can be used directly, without
pre-processing.
Note that the pre-processing step can run concurrently with the piet-gpu pipeline;
Only the last stage, kernel4, needs the images.
Pre-processing most likely uses fixed function vertex/fragment programs,
which on some GPUs may run in parallel with piet-gpu's compute programs.
While here, fix a few validation errors:
- Explicitly enable EXT_descriptor_indexing, KHR_maintenance3,
KHR_get_physical_device_properties2.
- Specify a vkDescriptorSetVariableDescriptorCountAllocateInfo for
vkAllocateDescriptorSets. Otherwise, variable image2D arrays won't work (but
sampler2D arrays do, at least on my setup).

I realized there's a problem with encoding clip bboxes relative to the
current transform (see #36 for a more detailed explanation), so this is
changing it to absolute bboxes.
This more or less gets clips working. There are optimization
opportunities (all-clear and all-opaque mask tiles), and it doesn't deal
with overflow of the blend stack, but it seems to basically work.
Actually handle transforms in RenderCtx (was implemented in renderer but
not actually plumbed through). This also requires maintaining a state
stack, which will also be required for clipping.
This PR also starts work on encoding clipping, including tracking
bounding boxes.
WIP, none of this is tested yet.
Expand the the final kernel4 stage to maintain a per-pixel mask.
Introduce two new path elements, FillMask and FillMaskInv, to fill
the mask. FillMask acts like Fill, while FillMaskInv fills the area
outside the path.
SVG clipPaths is then representable by a FillMaskInv(0.0) for every nested
path, preceded by a FillMask(1.0) to clear the mask.
The bounding box for FillMaskInv elements is the entire screen; tightening of
the bounding box is left for future work. Note that a fullscreen bounding
box is not hopelessly inefficient because completely filling a tile with
a mask is just a single CmdSolidMask per tile.

Write the right_edge to the binning output.
More work on encoding the fill/stroke distinction and plumbing that
through the pipeline. This is a bit unsatisfying because of the code
duplication; having an extra fill/stroke bool might be better, but I
want to avoid making the structs bigger (this could be solved by
better packing in the struct encoding).
Fills are plumbed through to the last stage. Backdrop is WIP.
This patch adds a module that contains both scene and ptcl types (very
lightly adapted from piet-metal), as well as infrastructure for encoding
Rust-side.
WIP, it's not wired up in either the shader or on the Rust side.
