* Update release number to 78.
Public Issues:
* Change markup so parameter descriptions include links to structures,
instead of just their names (public issue 697).
* Resume publishing updated Vulkan 1.0 + KHR extensions and Vulkan 1.0 +
all extensions versions of the specification (public issue 722).
* Reapply fixes from public pull request 698 for
`VK_ANDROID_external_memory_android_hardware_buffer`, which accidentally
were reverted at some point (public pull request 724).
* Fix undefined format valid usage statements for slink:VkImageCreateInfo
in the presence of the
`VK_ANDROID_external_memory_android_hardware_buffer` extension (public
pull request 725).
* Miscellaneous markup consistency fixes (public pull request 728).
Internal Issues:
* When building specifications containing vendor extensions, add terms to
the Khronos spec copyright specifying that the result is not a ratified
specification (internal issue 739).
* Change the value of the
pname:maxDescriptorSetUpdateAfterBindUniformBuffers minimum limit to 72
(6 times pname:maxPerStageDescriptorUpdateAfterBindUniformBuffers) in
the <<features-limits-required, Required Limits>> table (internal issue
1300).
Other Issues:
* Fix link to resource image view compatibility table in the valid usage
statements for slink:VkImageFormatListCreateInfoKHR (internal pull
request 2711).
* Update release number to 76.
Internal Issues:
* Add an exception clause to the license on `vk.xml`, enabling its use
with GPL-based projects (internal issue 1017).
* Remove the generated `vulkan_ext.[ch]` files, which are no longer
supported. Add `src/ext_loader/README.md` explaining why, and update
files in `xml/` to not generate them by default (internal issue 1268)
Other Issues:
* Fix typos in valid usage statements for the
ftext:vkDrawIndexedIndirectCount* commands, replacing
sizeof(VkDrawIndirectComment) with sizeof(VkDrawIndexedIndirectCommand).
* Modify the <<spirvenv-module-validation, Validation Rules within a
Module>> section to require code:NonReadable or code:NonWriteable in
SPIR-V code for images with an image format of code:Unknown if one of
the requisite code:shaderImageReadWithoutFormat or
code:shaderImageWriteWithoutFormat features is disabled.
New Extensions:
* `VK_KHR_get_display_properties2`
* `VK_KHR_draw_indirect_count`
associated material at the top level, vk.xml and associated material in
xml/, and generated include and source files in include/vulkan/ and
src/ext_loader/, respectively (public issue 436).
