Jon Leech 56e0289318 Change log for January 05, 2019 Vulkan 1.1.97 spec update:
* 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`

An application using external memory may wish to synchronize access to that
memory using fences.
This extension enables an application to create fences from which non-Vulkan
handles that reference the underlying synchronization primitive can be
exported.
=== New Object Types
None.
=== New Enum Constants
* ename:VK_STRUCTURE_TYPE_EXPORT_FENCE_CREATE_INFO_KHR
=== New Enums
* elink:VkFenceImportFlagBitsKHR
=== New Structs
* slink:VkExportFenceCreateInfoKHR
=== New Functions
None.
=== Promotion to Vulkan 1.1
All functionality in this extension is included in core Vulkan 1.1, with the
KHR suffix omitted.
The original type, enum and command names are still available as aliases of
the core functionality.
=== Issues
This extension borrows concepts, semantics, and language from
`<<VK_KHR_external_semaphore>>`.
That extension's issues apply equally to this extension.
