Change log for February 27, 2017 Vulkan 1.0.42 spec update: * Bump API patch number and header version number to 42 for this update (the first anniversary edition). Github Issues: * Changed asciidoctor macros so cross-page links in the standalone reference pages function properly (public issue 462). Internal Issues: * Clarified host visibility discussion for slink:VkMemoryType, flink:vkInvalidateMappedMemoryRanges, elink:VkAccessFlagBits, and the <<synchronization-framebuffer-regions,Framebuffer Region Dependencies>> section, removing duplicated information and adding a central definition in the access types section (internal issue 552). * Change description of slink:vkGetPhysicalDeviceSurfacePresentModesKHR::pname:pPresentModes to return an array of values, not structures (internal issue 699). New Extensions: * Add a NOTE to the <<extensions,Layers & Extensions>> chapter describing the experimental status of `KHX` extensions. * Add new Khronos, Khronos Experimental, and vendor Vulkan extensions for release at GDC: ** VK_KHR_descriptor_update_template ** VK_KHR_push_descriptor ** VK_KHX_device_group ** VK_KHX_device_group_creation ** VK_KHX_external_memory ** VK_KHX_external_memory_capabilities ** VK_KHX_external_memory_fd ** VK_KHX_external_memory_win32 ** VK_KHX_external_semaphore ** VK_KHX_external_semaphore_capabilities ** VK_KHX_external_semaphore_fd ** VK_KHX_external_semaphore_win32 ** VK_KHX_multiview ** VK_KHX_win32_keyed_mutex ** VK_EXT_discard_rectangles ** VK_MVK_ios_surface ** VK_MVK_macos_surface ** VK_NVX_multiview_per_view_attributes ** VK_NV_clip_space_w_scaling ** VK_NV_geometry_shader_passthrough ** VK_NV_sample_mask_override_coverage ** VK_NV_viewport_array2 ** VK_NV_viewport_swizzle * Add new GLSL vendor extensions to support new builtin variables: ** GL_EXT_device_group ** GL_EXT_multiview

This extension allows descriptors to be written into the command buffer,
with the implementation being responsible for managing their memory.
Push descriptors may enable easier porting from older APIs and in some cases
can be more efficient than writing descriptors into descriptor sets.
