ADDED VULKAN EXTENSION SUPPORT

- VK_EXT_descriptor_indexing: This extension adds several small features which together enable applications to create large descriptor sets containing substantially all of their resources and selecting amongst those resources with dynamic (non-uniform) indexes in the shader.
- VK_KHR_get_display_properties2: This extension provides new entry points to query device display properties and capabilities in a way that can be easily extended by other extensions, without introducing any further entry points.
- VK_KHR_8bit_storage: This extension allows the use of 8-bit types in uniform and storage buffers and pushes constant blocks.
- VK_KHR_draw_indirect_count: This extension allows an application to source the number of draw calls for indirect draw calls from a buffer.
- VK_KHR_create_renderpass2: This extension provides a new entry point to create render passes in a way that can be easily extended by other extensions through the substructures of render pass creation.
- EXT_vertex_attribute_divisor: This extension allows instance-rate vertex attributes to be repeated for a certain number of instances instead of advancing for every instance when instanced rendering is enabled.
