The former is deprecated and pretty much all modern drivers
support VK_EXT_debug_utils.
Android drivers dont support it. On those drivers,
we use the implementation provided by the validation layers.

Before this change, we simply fail if the device does not expose one
queue family that supports both graphics and present. Currently this is
fine, since devices tend to lay out their queues in this way. NV, for
instance, tends to have one queue family for all graphics operations and
one more for transfer only. However, it's not a hard requirement, and it
is cheap to use a separate queue, so we might as well.
This reverts commit d23fd17e1a.
Dynamic sampler indexing is broken in VK_NV_glsl as of 385.41. The
performance gap doesn't seem to be as wide with the updated driver, so
to save maintaining two code paths, it's easier to just drop the
extension support completely.
This stops the virtual method call from within the Renderer constructor.
The initialization here for GL had to be moved to VideoBackend, as the
Renderer constructor will not have been executed before the value is
required.
Hopefully will fix the crash in vkDestroyInstance on the NV Shield TV,
and likely reduce boot times slightly for drivers that take a while
to create instances.
