Per cdavis5e observation:
Since an MVKArrayRef<T> is just a pointer and a size, passing it around by
reference doesn't buy much. It might actually hurt performance, since cache
lines might be evicted to make room for the MVKArrayRef in memory.
For this reason, LLVM passes its ArrayRefs by value.
Unrelatedly, update runcts to log errors by default.
Define MVK_MACCAT build macro and use it to conditionally compile code to align
with build features and capabilities of Mac Catalyst platform on macOS 11.0+.
Treat Mac Catalyst as minor variation of macOS 11.0.
Update documentation.
Currently only support Mac Catalyst on macOS 11.0+, to avoid complexities of
deselecting iOS features and capabilities for Mac Catalyst on previous macOS versions.
Mac Catalyst (and Simulators) require use of XCFrameworks.
Currently unable to generate a dylib for Mac Catalyst.
Combine MoltenVKSPIRVToMSLConverter and MoltenVKGLSLToSPIRVConverter
frameworks into a single MoltenVKShaderConverter framework.
Update corresponding directory structures, symlinks, scripts, and build paths.
Update MoltenVK code to use new framework name for headers.
Add symlinks in API-Samples demo to support legacy
MoltenVKGLSLToSPIRVConverter header paths.
In addition to simplifying shader converter code and build management, the
use of only one shader converter framework fixes a race condition within Xcode,
prior to Xcode 12, when multiple targets use the same dependency XCFramework.
Remove EXCLUDED_ARCHS from all Xcode projects to allow fat platform libraries to be built.
Script copy_lib_to_staging.sh no longer breaks fat libraries into single-architecture
libraries, and simply copies fat file to XCFramework staging area.
This permits support for arm64 on macOS, and arm64e on iOS and tvOS.
Creating a Simulator dylib containing both x86_64 and arm64 (Apple Silicon)
architectures is not currently supported by Xcode, so Simulator dylibs are skipped.
XCFramework headers are still unusable due to an Xcode bug (documented in
create_xcframework_func.sh), but in testing for this, modifications to
create_xcframework_func.sh were made to test for the header file so that this
will work correctly when the Xcode bug is fixed and headers can be reintroduced.
- Delete fat library and framework scripts and templates.
- MoltenVK build package now only includes one XCFramework, and separate platform dylibs.
- Modify fetchDependencies and Makefile targets to not build fat libraries,
and to build simulators separately than platforms instead.
- Script package_moltenvk.sh now copies dylibs for all built platforms.
- Consolidate package_all.sh and delete package_one_os.sh.
- Swap names of copy_lib_to_staging.sh and copy_to_staging.sh scripts.
- Cube demo now uses MoltenVK as XCFramework, and support Simulator builds.
- Hologram demo now uses MoltenVK as dylibs from new packaging location.
- API-Samples demo now uses MoltenVK as XCFramework.
- Update documentation.
Create shader converters as XCFrameworks.
Don't create shader converters as fat libs, dylibs, or regular frameworks.
Rename create_xcframework.sh to create_xcframework_func.sh.
Use separate MoltenVK packaging scripts for one or all OS's.
Add package_one_os.sh.

Remove redundant GLSL shader converter dependencies in MoltenVK packaging targets.
Exclude arm64 architectures on macOS and Simulators.
Exclude arm64e architectures on iOS and tvOS.
Stop building fat libraries for external libraries.
Remove package_ext_libs.sh script.
Don't include Headers in ext lib XCFrameworks because of Xcode12 bug in using them.
fetchDependencies support option to skip all library builds.
fetchDependencies avoid sync locks if not building in parallel.
fetchDependencies build glslang headers.
Update ExternalRevisions/README.md glslang build integration section.
Update What's New.
Log ext lib build steps to provide user feedback.
Add package_ext_libs_finish.sh script to separate packaging
libraries from building them, to avoid build database conflicts.
Travis only build macOS ext libs.
Create fat builds of static, dynamic & framework libraries if both iOS
and simulator versions have been created from separate manual Xcode builds.
Refactor scripts for creating fat libraries to reuse across projects.
Add MVK_BUILT_PROD_DIR to replace use of BUILT_PRODUCTS_DIR in most scripts
to allow flexibility across per-platform compilation.
Create fat builds of external libraries if both iOS and simulator versions
have been created from separate manual Xcode builds.
Add Scripts/create_fat_libs.sh.
Remove Scripts/package_ext_libs_ios.sh and Scripts/package_ext_libs_macos.sh.
Add Scripts/packagePregenSpirvToolsHeaders script to automate packaging Spirv-Tools
headers in support of the fetchDependencies --skip-spirv-tools-build option.
Update Docs/Whats_New.md.
Add ExternalDependencies (Debug) scheme to ExternalDependencies Xcode project.
Add --debug option to fetchDependencies script.
Support Release, Debug & Latest directories in External/build directory.
Enable DEPLOYMENT_POSTPROCESSING build setting when compiling
SPIRV-Tools to avoid warning spam when building dylibs.
Disable visibility warnings when building MoltenVKShaderConverter
in Release mode from external libraries built in Debug mode.
Always use -Xlinker -w option when creating dylibs to disable visibility warnings.
tool now validates converted MSL with a test compilation.
Project build scripts now build dylib and framework in separate build directories
to enable MoltenVKShaderConverter to link to static library instead of dynamic library.
Final Package structure remains the same.
In Debug build, copy dylib dSYM files to Package.
Package/Latest directory now links relative to local Debug or Release directory.
Add install option to Makefile.
