This change will register a callback to Vulkan debug messaging
allowing us to filter out messages and log them using CLog.
This change only provides the initial changes, and more tweaks
are expected to on formatting and filtering.

A lot of files were missing copyright field in the header and
the Blender Foundation contributed to them in a sense of bug
fixing and general maintenance.
This change makes it explicit that those files are at least
partially copyrighted by the Blender Foundation.
Note that this does not make it so the Blender Foundation is
the only holder of the copyright in those files, and developers
who do not have a signed contract with the foundation still
hold the copyright as well.
Another aspect of this change is using SPDX format for the
header. We already used it for the license specification,
and now we state it for the copyright as well, following the
FAQ:

Previous GHOST_ContextVK would create a logical device for each
context. Blender uses multiple contexts at the same time and wasn't able
to share resources between them as the logical device where different.
This patch will create a single logical device and share them between
multiple contexts. This allows sharing memory/shaders between contexts
and make sure that all memory allocations are freed from the device it
was allocated from.
Some allocations in Blender are freed when there isn't a context, this
was failing in the previous implementation. We didn't noticed it before
as we didn't test multiple contexts.
This patch also moves device specific data structures from VKContext to
VKDevice like the descriptor pools, debug layers etc.

This PR uses the VK_EXT_debug_utils extension, but it's only for labeling, so it doesn't rely on the VK_LAYER_KHRONOS_validation functionality.
The functions that do these things are loaded into the runtime as vulkan extensions.
Declare the function pointers in a struct and make them members of vk_context.
