This extension provides new entry points to query device features, device
properties, and format properties in a way that can be easily extended by
other extensions, without introducing any further entry points.
The Vulkan 1.0 feature/limit/formatproperty structures do not include
ptext:sType/ptext:pNext members.
This extension wraps them in new structures with ptext:sType/ptext:pNext
members, so an application can query a chain of feature/limit/formatproperty
structures by constructing the chain and letting the implementation fill
them in.
A new command is added for each ftext:vkGetPhysicalDevice* command in core
Vulkan 1.0.
The new feature structure (and a chain of extension structures) can also be
passed in to device creation to enable features.

This extension also allows applications to use the physical-device
components of device extensions before flink:vkCreateDevice is called.

=== Promotion to Vulkan 1.1

KHR suffix omitted.
The original type, enum and command names are still available as aliases of
the core functionality.

=== Issues

None.

----------------------------------------

    // Get features with a hypothetical future extension.

    // After this call, features and hypotheticalFeatures have been filled out.

    // Properties/limits can be chained and queried similarly.
