This support was always there in Metal. It was just hidden from public view--but not from prying eyes on the Objective-C metadata. I had initially thought they were using OpenGL/Vulkan values for the logic operation. When that didn't work, I then tried D3D11 values. I guess D3D11 makes sense, because the Intel GPU drivers were the first to support this in Metal. Move the definition of `MVK_USE_METAL_PRIVATE_API` into `"MVKCommonEnvironment.h"` so we can use it from non-C++ code.
