This change adds unary conversion folding when the source is a constant.
This fixes an ISV issue whereby:
```
const float16_t f = float16_t(42.0);
```
Wouldn't compile because the conversion operator would always produce an
EvqTemporary when it could have produced an EvqConst.
I've also added a test case that proves out that all basic-type to
basic-type conversions work.
UniformAndStorageBuffer8BitAccess capability.
When using the 8-bit storage extension it basically always used the
`UniformAndStorageBuffer8BitAccess` capability, even in cases where it
wasn't required. For instance if we are targeting Vulkan 1.1 (SPIR-V 1.3
or higher), and we are only using 8-bit types in an SSBO, we only need
the `StorageBuffer8BitAccess` capability.
I fixed this by enabling storage buffer use in Vulkan 1.1 / SPIR-V 1.3
or higher, and then changing the logic to match.
I also added some tests that will output different capabilities when run
on Vulkan 1.0 and 1.1, thus they are added twice to the test list (one
for each version).
Fixes#1539
These introduce limited support for 8/16-bit types such that they can only be accessed in buffer memory and converted to/from 32-bit types.
