Gotta be sure :)
With the new system mostly up and running (just bsp rendering and
descriptor sets/layout handling to go, and they're independent of the
old render pass system), the old system can finally be cleared out.
Many thanks to Peter and Darian for clearing up my misunderstanding of
how vkResetCommandPool works. The manager creates command buffers from
the command pool on an as-needed basis (when the queue of available
buffers is empty), and keeps track of those buffers in a queue. When the
pool is reset, the queues (one each for primary and secondary command
buffers) are reset such that the tracked buffers are available again.
This is with the new render job scheme. I very much doubt it actually
works (can't start testing until everything passes, and it's disabled
for the moment (define in vid_render_vulkan.c)), but it's helping iron
out what more is needed in the render system.
I don't remember why I kept the abbreviated configs for images and image
views, but it because such that I need to be able to specify them
completely. In addition, image views support external images.
The rest was just cleaning up after the changes to qfv_resobj_t.
Partial because frame buffer creation isn't handled yet (using six
layers), but using layer a layer capable view and shaders doesn't cause
problems (other than maybe slightly slower code).
I had debated putting the blending in the compose subpass or a separate
pass but went with the separate pass originally, but it turns out that
removing the separate pass gains 1-3% (5-15/545 fps in a timedemo of
demo1).
It's a bit flaky for particles, especially at higher frame rates, but
that's due to supporting only 64 overlapping pixels. A reasonable
solution is probably switching to a priority heap for the "sort" and
upping the limit.
