tint: work around zero-init bug on some GPUs for workgroup size(1)

This was seen specifically on Windows with an AMD GPU, when using DXC to
compile compute shaders with workgroup size of 1. Flaky, but
reproducible when running CTS test:
webgpu:shader,execution,zero_init:compute,zero_init:addressSpace="workgroup";workgroupSize=[1,1,1];*

We are generating valid code in Tint, but this workaround makes it so
that DXC opts to emit the zero-init instructions rather than tagging the
groupshared variable as 'zeroinitializer'. This seems to make the buggy
driver happy.

Dawn, a WebGPU implementation

Dawn is an open-source and cross-platform implementation of the WebGPU standard. More precisely it implements webgpu.h that is a one-to-one mapping with the WebGPU IDL. Dawn is meant to be integrated as part of a larger system and is the underlying implementation of WebGPU in Chromium.

Dawn provides several WebGPU building blocks:

  • WebGPU C/C++ headers that applications and other building blocks use.
    • The webgpu.h version that Dawn implements.
    • A C++ wrapper for the webgpu.h.
  • A “native” implementation of WebGPU using platforms' GPU APIs: D3D12, Metal, Vulkan and OpenGL. See per API support for more details.
  • A client-server implementation of WebGPU for applications that are in a sandbox without access to native drivers
  • Tint is a compiler for the WebGPU Shader Language (WGSL) that can be used in standalone to convert shaders from and to WGSL.
