Support VK_KHR_buffer_device_address but not VK_EXT_buffer_device_address
To avoid mess in the code. They are not identical! "EXT" version lacks flag VK_MEMORY_ALLOCATE_DEVICE_ADDRESS_BIT* flag. Refers to #56

- Lost allocations: Allocate memory with appropriate flags and let the library remove allocations that are not used for many frames to make room for new ones.

- Statistics: Obtain detailed statistics about the amount of memory used, unused, number of allocated blocks, number of allocations etc. - globally, per memory heap, and per memory type.

1) (For Vulkan version < 1.2) Call `vkEnumerateDeviceExtensionProperties` for the physical device.

Check if the extension is supported - if returned array of `VkExtensionProperties` contains "VK_EXT_buffer_device_address"

or "VK_KHR_buffer_device_address".

Check if the extension is supported - if returned array of `VkExtensionProperties` contains

2) Call `vkGetPhysicalDeviceFeatures2` for the physical device instead of old `vkGetPhysicalDeviceFeatures`.

Attach additional structure `VkPhysicalDeviceBufferDeviceAddressFeatures*` to `VkPhysicalDeviceFeatures2::pNext` to be returned.

Check if the device feature is really supported - check if `VkPhysicalDeviceBufferDeviceAddressFeatures*::bufferDeviceAddress` is true.
|
||||
|
||||
3) (For Vulkan version < 1.2) While creating device with `vkCreateDevice`, enable this extension - add "VK_EXT_buffer_device_address"

or "VK_KHR_buffer_device_address" to the list passed as `VkDeviceCreateInfo::ppEnabledExtensionNames`.

4) While creating the device, also don't set `VkDeviceCreateInfo::pEnabledFeatures`.

Fill in `VkPhysicalDeviceFeatures2` structure instead and pass it as `VkDeviceCreateInfo::pNext`.
