Chip Davis e6424654e3 Add basic support for VK_KHR_external_fence{,_capabilities}.
Like with `VK_KHR_device_group` and `VK_KHR_external_memory`, this just
adds the groundwork needed to support future extensions; it provides no
actual support for external fences.

We should be able to easily support `VK_KHR_external_fence_fd`, by using
a POSIX semaphore. Since the fence FDs produced by that extension are
opaque, only supporting `close(2)` and `dup(2)`, we shouldn't have to
worry about portable programs poking the FD in weird ways. Hopefully.

Other types of external fences we might support include GCD semaphores
(`dispatch_semaphore_t`) and Mach semaphores (`semaphore_t`). I really
think we want support for GCD semaphores, because that's the most likely
object we're going to see passed between processes on Darwin given GCD's
built-in support for XPC.

I have deliberately omitted mention of these extensions from the user
guide. `VK_KHR_external_memory` was not mentioned in there, presumably
because no actual external memory types are actually supported.

Also, add missing `vkGetInstanceProcAddr()` entry for
`vkGetPhysicalDeviceExternalBufferPropertiesKHR()`. We have the
function, and we export the extension's name string. We might as well
make it available via `vkGetInstanceProcAddr()`.
