This extension provides versions of flink:vkBindBufferMemory and
flink:vkBindImageMemory that allow multiple bindings to be performed at
once, and are extensible.

This extension also introduces ename:VK_IMAGE_CREATE_ALIAS_BIT_KHR, which
allows "`identical`" images that alias the same memory to interpret the
contents consistently, even across image layout changes.
