Jon Leech ca4abe0d34 Change log for January 23, 2017 Vulkan 1.0.39 spec update:
* Bump API patch number and header version number to 39 for this update.

Github Issues:

  * Clarified that only accesses via the specified buffer/image subresource
    ranges are included in the access scopes (public issue 306).
  * Add missing valid usage statements for flink:vkCreateComputePipelines
    and flink:vkCreateGraphicsPipelines (public issue 427).

Internal Issues:

  * Add a Note to the <<invariance,Invariance>> appendix about a difference
    between OpenGL and Vulkan with regards to how primitives derived from
    offsets are handled (internal issue 355).
  * Add the +<<VK_KHR_get_physical_device_properties2>>+,
    +<<VK_KHR_maintenance1>>+, and +<<VK_KHR_shader_draw_parameters>>+
    extensions (internal issue 448).
  * Add the +<<VK_EXT_shader_subgroup_vote>>+ and
    +<<VK_EXT_shader_subgroup_ballot>>+ extensions (internal issue 449).
  * Update the texture level-of-detail equation in the
    <<textures-scale-factor,Scale Factor Operation>> section to better
    approximate the ellipse major and minor axes (internal issue 547).
  * Forbid non-explicitly allowed uses of interface decorations in the
    introduction to the <<interfaces,Shader Interfaces>> chapter (internal
    issue 607).
  * Replace use of MathJax with KaTeX, for improved load-time performance as
    well as avoiding the scrolling-and-scrolling behavior due to MathJax
    asynchronous rendering when loading at an anchor inside the spec. This
    change also requires moving to HTML5 output for the spec instead of
    XHTML, and there is a visible difference in that the chapter navigation
    index is now in a scrollable sidebar instead of at the top of the
    document. We may or may not retain the nav sidebar based on feedback
    (internal issue 613).
  * Improve consistency of markup and formatting in extension appendices
    (internal issue 631).

Other Issues:

  * Add explicit valid usage statements to slink:VkImageCopy requiring that
    the source and destination layer ranges be contained in their respective
    source and destination images.
  * Add valid usage language for swapchain of flink:vkAcquireNextImage. If
    the swapchain has been replaced, then it should not be passed to
    flink:vkAcquireNextImage.
  * Add a valid usage statement to flink:vkCreateImageView, that the image
    must have been created with an appropriate usage bit set.
  * Noted that slink:VkDisplayPresentInfoKHR is a valid extension of
    slink:VkPresentInfoKHR in the <<wsi_swapchain,WSI Swapchain>> section.
  * Update valid usage for flink:vkCmdSetViewport and flink:vkCmdSetScissor
    to account for the multiple viewport feature. If the feature is not
    enabled, the parameters for these functions have required values that
    are defined in the <<features-features-multiViewport,multiple
    viewports>> section of the spec but were not reflected in the valid
    usage text for these functions.
  * Add the +<<VK_EXT_swapchain_colorspace>>+ extension defining common
    color spaces.
