* Update release number to 124.
Github Issues:
* Fix Makefile SPECREMARK macro to work when not building in a git tree
(public issue 992).
* Ignore pname:aspectMask for unused attachments in
slink:VkSubpassDescription2KHR valid usage statements (public pull
request 1028).
* Minor markup / spelling fixes (public pull requests 1035, 1045).
Internal Issues:
* Fix markup in Valid Usage statement for slink:VkCreateFramebuffer
(internal issue 1823).
* Add a new <<synchronization-signal-operation-order, _signal operation
order_>> section to the synchronization chapter which describes in
detail the ordering guarantees provided by the API between fence and
semaphore signal operations (internal merge request 3368).
* Move generated `appendix/meta/` files into the Makefile GENERATED
directory (internal merge request 3381).
New Extensions
* `<<VK_KHR_shader_clock>>`
* `<<VK_KHR_timeline_semaphore>>`
* Update release number to 104.
Public Issues:
* Remove the incorrect line from "`Initial`" to "`Invalid`" state in the
<<commandbuffer-lifecycle-diagram, Lifecycle of a command buffer>>
diagram (public issue 881).
* Add Fuchsia platform to <<boilerplate-wsi-header-table, Window System
Extensions and Headers>> table (public pull request 933).
* Change the type of
slink:VkBufferDeviceAddressCreateInfoEXT::pname:deviceAddress from
basetype:VkDeviceSize to basetype:VkDeviceAddress. These are both
typedefs of code:uint64_t, so it is an ABI-compatible change (public
issue 934).
Internal Issues:
* Remove generated header files and update the CI tests to build a copy of
the headers for use by the hpp-generate / hpp-compile CI stages. Targets
to generate the headers will not be removed, but keeping these generated
files in the repository increased the frequency of conflicts between
branches when merging to master (internal issue 745).
* Reword "`undefined: behavior if *action*" to "`must: not do *action*`"
in the places the old terminology was used, and add a new
<<writing-undefined, Describing Undefined Behavior>> section of the
style guide to explain how to write such language in the future
(internal issue 1579).
* Move almost all Python scripts into the toplevel `scripts/` directory.
Apply extensive internal edits to clean up and simplify the scripts, and
try to follow PEP8 guidelines. Generalize the scripts with the use of a
Conventions object controlling many aspects of output generation, to
enable their use in other Khronos projects with similar requirements.
Autogenerate extension interface refpages (these are experimental and
may be retired going forward).
New Extensions:
* `VK_AMD_display_native_hdr`
* `VK_EXT_full_screen_exclusive` (internal issue 1439)
* `VK_EXT_host_query_reset`
* `VK_EXT_pipeline_creation_feedback` (internal issue 1560)
* `VK_KHR_surface_protected_capabilities` (internal issue 1520)
