An application may wish to reference device fences in multiple Vulkan
logical devices or instances, in multiple processes, and/or in multiple
APIs.
This extension provides a set of capability queries and handle definitions
that allow an application to determine what types of "`external`" fence
handles an implementation supports for a given set of use cases.
