SPDX standardizes how source code conveys its copyright and licensing
information. See https://spdx.github.io/spdx-spec/1-rationale/ . SPDX
tags are adopted in many large projects, including things like the Linux
kernel.
Since we are calling this off the UI thread, we can't use anything which
accesses the underlying NSView object. We create and set the Metal layer
on the UI thread before the video backend is initialized. This extension
is both compatible with MoltenVK and gfx-portability for accepting a
layer at surface creation.
The path to the MoltenVK library can be specified by the
LIBMOLTENVK_PATH environment variable, otherwise it assumes it is
located in the application bundle's Contents/MacOS directory.
