Substitute overrides in IR (vk)

This moves the substitute overrides transform in IR ie. after the
program has been converted to IR.

Substitute replaces all overrides with constants and propagates these
values. This can result in the emission of pipeline creation errors
when these constants are validated.

Short circuiting expressions must be handled carefully to avoid
spurious pipeline errors. We convert these to ConstExprIfs and then
after evaluating overrides we throw away the branch not taken.

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.
