* Update release number to 97.
Public Issues:
* Add a special case to the <<renderpass-compatibility, Render Pass
Compatibility>> rules allowing single-subpass renderpasses to be
compatible even if they have different resolve attachment references
(public issue 835).
* Fix the miss shader binding table record address rule in the
<<shader-binding-table-indexing-rules, Miss Shaders>> section to index
by code:missIndex, not code:sbtOffset (public issue 875).
Internal Issues:
* Add a missing anchor to the elink:VkSamplerCreateFlagBits language
(internal issue 1483).
* Add missing implicit valid usage include for slink:VkHdrMetadataEXT and
corresponding `noautovalidity` attributes in `vk.xml` for the
externally-defined metadata properties (internal issue 1514).
* Remove restrictions on the `mask` parameter of SPIR-V's
code:OpGroupNonUniformXor in the <<spirvenv-module-validation,
Validation Rules within a Module>> appendix (internal merge request
2971).
* Restore `noautovalidity` attribute for
slink:VkPipelineViewportWScalingStateCreateInfoNV::pname:pViewportWScalings
in `vk.xml` (internal merge request 2975).
* Update copyright dates on Khronos-copyrighted files to 2019 (internal
merge request 2980).
New Extensions:
* `VK_KHR_depth_stencil_resolve`
* `VK_EXT_buffer_device_address`
* `VK_EXT_memory_budget`
* `VK_EXT_memory_priority`
* `VK_EXT_validation_features`
* 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).
