- Update to version 1.7:
  + New Vulkan extensions
    On supported drivers, the following extensions are now used:
    VK_EXT_custom_border_color is now used to support for arbitrary sampler
    border colors, which fixes issues in many Direct3D 9 games including Crysis
    and Halo 2 Vista (#1612).
    VK_EXT_robustness2 is used to handle out-of-bounds access to resources the
    same way as D3D11 does.
    Wine 5.8 is needed for winevulkan support, as well as the following drivers:
      - AMD, Intel: Mesa 20.2 (current development version)
      - Nvidia: 440.66.12 (Vulkan developer beta)
  + Bug fixes and Improvements
    Optimized render target clears and barriers, which may slightly improve
    GPU-bound performance in a number of games.
    On drivers that do not support a dedicated transfer queue (primarily RADV),
    the compute queue will now be used for asynchronous resource uploads in
    D3D11 games.
    Implemented some DXGI 1.6 functionality for future versions of World of
    Warcraft.
    Reduced memory usage especially in D3D9, which may help with out-of-memory
    errors in certain games such as Toxikk. Note that this is not a solution
    for the general 32-bit address space problem (#1318).
    Fixed Vulkan validation errors in Cloudpunk and other games using buffer
    resources incorrectly.
    Fixed build on GCC 10.1 (#1620).
    Fixed various D3D9 issues.
    Reworked the dxgi.tearFree option, see PR #1606 for details.
