D3D12: Search the default path of Windows SDK for DXC DLLs

This patch adds another way to get DXC DLLs (dxcompiler.dll and
dxil.dll) by searching the default installation path of Windows x64
SDK (C:\Program Files (x86)\Windows Kits\10\\bin\10.0.[version].0\x64)
so that now Dawn can find these two DLLs when Windows SDK is correctly
installed at the default location.

This patch also forces enabling the "use_dxc" toggle when Dawn can
find DXC DLLs and the device is created with "ShaderFloat16" extension
enabled because currently the HLSL shaders with float16_t can only be
compiled with DXC DLLs.

Dawn, a WebGPU implementation

Dawn is an open-source and cross-platform implementation of the work-in-progress 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 on Windows 10
    • Metal on macOS and iOS
    • Vulkan on Windows, Linux, ChromeOS, Android and Fuchsia
    • OpenGL as best effort where available
  • A client-server implementation of WebGPU for applications that are in a sandbox without access to native drivers
