Jon Leech b9e9296cd8 Change log for June 24, 2017 Vulkan 1.0.53 spec update:
* Bump API patch number and header version number to 53 for this update.

Github Issues:

Internal Issues:

  * Clarify mappings of coordinates for mutable, compatible image views in
    slink:VkImageViewCreateInfo (internal issue 815).
  * Make ename:VK_BIND_SFR_BIT require a logical device with multiple
    physical devices, so that standard sparse image block dimensions are
    only required on systems that support multi-GPU (internal issue 835).
  * Convert all files from use of // refBegin .. // refEnd comments to
    delimit ref pages, to use of open blocks, and update style guide
    accordingly (internal issue 839).
  * Add valid usage for slink:VkWriteDescriptorSet when performing updates
    to a ename:VK_STORAGE_IMAGE descriptor with layout
    ename:VK_IMAGE_LAYOUT_GENERAL.
  * Add a hack to the validity generator script to support an odd
    interaction between flink:vkCmdFillBuffer and an extension (internal
    issue 853).
  * Remove redundant text describing slink:VkBufferCreateInfo::pname:usage,
    which was already covered by implicit valid usage (internal issue 854).
  * Update implicit validity generator script to properly handle the
    pname:sType and pname:pNext members of "returnedonly" structures
    (internal issue 874).
  * Note that slink:VkApplicationInfo::pname:pApplicationName &
    slink:VkApplicationInfo::pname:pEngineName are optional, and add missing
    implicit valid usage statements for flink:vkDestroyInstance.
  * Added missing valid usage for flink:vkCmdWriteTimestamp to require a
    timestamp query pool.
  * Simplify and/or split "`non-atomic`" valid usage statements.

New Extensions:

  * `VK_AMD_gpu_shader_int16`
  * `VK_EXT_blend_operation_advanced`
  * `VK_EXT_sampler_filter_minmax`
  * `VK_NV_framebuffer_mixed_samples`

-----------------------------------------------------
Note: the 1.0.52 spec wasn't published on github, so the 1.0.53 release
combines both change sets.
-----------------------------------------------------

Change log for June 13, 2017 Vulkan 1.0.52 spec update:

  * Bump API patch number and header version number to 52 for this update.

Github Issues:

Internal Issues:

  * Clarify behavior when non-coherent memory has
    <<memory-device-unmap-does-not-flush, not been flushed before being
    unmapped>> (internal issue 819).
  * Fix description of code:WorkgroupSize builtin to note it decorates an
    object, not a variable (internal issue 836).
  * Fix asciidoc attributes so that trailing '{plus}' symbols in [eq] style
    equations are rendered properly (internal issue 845).
  * Add language to the "`Extension Handles, Objects, Enums, and Typedefs`"
    section of the Procedures and Conventions document stating that any new
    handle type requires a corresponding entry in the elink:VkObjectType
    enumerated type (internal issue 856).
  * Update style guide to use slink macro for Vulkan handle type names, and
    define narrow conditions under which to use the *name and *text macros
    instead of *link (internal issue 886).
  * Add a dependency of the <<VK_KHX_device_group,VK_KHX_device_group>>
    extension on VK_KHX_device_group_creation to +vk.xml+ and the extension
    appendix.
  * Change the copyright on Vulkan specification asciidoc *source* files to
    CC-BY 4.0, and update the proprietary Khronos copyright applied to the
    generated *output* formats (internal issue 327). This enables broader
    re-use and modification of the Vulkan specification sources, while not
    affecting the Reciprocal IP License between Vulkan Adopters and Working
    Group Members.

New Extensions:

  * `VK_NV_fill_rectangle`
  * `VK_NV_fragment_coverage_to_color`
