Fix Vulkan surface capabilities being advertised when its query failed. (#6510)

* distinguish `GetSurfaceSupportError` between backend unsupported and failing to get surface caps

* Fix vulkan backend returning invalid surface configuration

* changelog entry

 #### General
 
 - Handle query set creation failure as an internal error that loses the `Device`, rather than panicking. By @ErichDonGubler in [#6505](https://github.com/gfx-rs/wgpu/pull/6505).
+- Ensure that `Features::TIMESTAMP_QUERY` is set when using timestamp writes in render and compute passes. By @ErichDonGubler in [#6497](https://github.com/gfx-rs/wgpu/pull/6497).
+- Check for device mismatches when beginning render and compute passes. By @ErichDonGubler in [#6497](https://github.com/gfx-rs/wgpu/pull/6497). 
+- Lower `QUERY_SET_MAX_QUERIES` (and enforced limits) from 8192 to 4096 to match WebGPU spec. By @ErichDonGubler in [#6525](https://github.com/gfx-rs/wgpu/pull/6525).
 
 #### Naga
 
 - Fix crash when a texture argument is missing. By @aedm in [#6486](https://github.com/gfx-rs/wgpu/pull/6486)
 - Emit an error in constant evaluation, rather than crash, in certain cases where `vecN` constructors have less than N arguments. By @ErichDonGubler in [#6508](https://github.com/gfx-rs/wgpu/pull/6508).
