It's already documented that to unmap a buffer it has to have been mapped.
Vulkan was the only backend that was returning an OOM on missing `Buffer.block` but `Buffer.map_buffer` already returns an error in this case.
The Vec only ever contained 0 or 1 command buffers.
We now acquire an encoder on every submit for pending writes but that's not a problem since those are coming from a pool anyway.
* Expose gpu allocation configuration options
This commit adds hints to control memory allocations strategies to the configuration options. These hints allow for automatic profiles such as optimizing for performance (the default, makes sense for a game), optimizing for memory usage (typically more useful for a web browser or UI library) and specifying settings manually.
The details of gpu allocation are still in flux. The goal is to switch vulkan and metal to gpu_allocator which is currently used with d3d12. gpu_allocator will also likely receive more configuration options, in particular the ability to start with smaller memory block sizes and progressively grow the block size. So the manual settings already provision for this upcoming option. Another approach could be to wait and add the manual option after the dust settles.
The reason for providing presets and defining values in the backends is that I am convinced that optimal fonigurations should take hardware capabilities into consideration. It's a deep rabbithole, though, so that will be an exercise for later.

* Allow unconsumed inputs in fragment shaders by removing them from vertex
outputs when generating HLSL.
Fixes https://github.com/gfx-rs/wgpu/issues/3748
* Add naga:🔙:hlsl::FragmentEntryPoint for providing information
about the fragment entry point when generating vertex entry points via
naga:🔙:hlsl::Writer::write. Vertex outputs not consumed by the
fragment entry point are omitted in the final output struct.
* Add naga snapshot test for this new feature,
* Remove Features::SHADER_UNUSED_VERTEX_OUTPUT,
StageError::InputNotConsumed, and associated validation logic.
* Make wgpu dx12 backend pass fragment shader info when generating
vertex HLSL.
* Add wgpu regression test for allowing unconsumed inputs.
* Address review
* Add note that nesting structs for the inter-stage interface can't
happen.
* Remove new TODO notes (some addressed and some transferred to an issue
https://github.com/gfx-rs/wgpu/issues/5577)
* Changed issue that regression test refers to 3748 -> 5553
* Add debug_assert that binding.is_some() in hlsl writer
* Fix typos caught in CI
Also, fix compiling snapshot test when hlsl-out feature is not enabled.
