Update QVulkan(Device)Functions to Vulkan 1.2
This also needs improvements to qvkgen. What we get with this patch are the Vulkan 1.1 and 1.2 core API's additional 11 instance-level and 30 device-level commands present in QVulkanFunctions and QVulkanDeviceFunctions. All of these are attempted to be resolved upon construction. When the implementation does not return a valid function pointer for some of them (e.g. because it is a Vulkan 1.0 instance or physical device), calling the corresponding wrapper functions will lead to unspecified behavior. This is in line with how QOpenGLExtraFunctions works. The simple autotest added to exercise some Vulkan 1.1 APIs demonstrates this in action. The member functions in the generated qvulkan(device)functions header and source files are ifdefed by VK_VERSION_1_{0,1,2}. This is essential because otherwise a Qt build made on a system with Vulkan 1.2 headers would cause compilation breaks in application build environments with Vulkan 1.0/1.1 headers when including qvulkanfunctions.h (due to missing the 1.1/1.2 types and constants, some of which are used in the function prototypes). In practice this should be alright - the only caveat to keep in mind is that the Qt builds meant to be distributed to a wide variety of systems need to be made with a sufficiently new version of the Vulkan headers installed, just to ensure that the 1.1 and 1.2 wrapper functions are compiled into the Qt libraries.
