1602: New DX12 backend (unfinished) r=kvark a=kvark
**Connections**
Continuation of #1471
**Description**
Mostly fresh implementation on DX12 backend for wgpu-hal
Core changes:
- texture usage is filtered before passing to `create_texture_view`, so that wgpu-hal can assume every bit is important.
- all the copies involving textures are limited to one array layer at a time
- remove render pass boundary usages
**Testing**
Examples (not running yet)

1599: Fix Limits for lava/llvmpipe and re-enable and re-work CI r=kvark,groves,wumpf a=cwfitzgerald
**Connections**
No longer fixes#1551.
**Description**
This PR has a couple things going on at once.
- Fixes limits for llvmpipe, lavapipe, and rpi4.
- Added a downlevel limit to express that RPI4 does not allow storage buffers in vertex shaders on GL.
- Added a `Limits::downlevel_default()` that takes minimum limits from GLES and adds some more documentation on how to choose limits.
- Moved all examples to the new downlevel limits
- Reworks CI to re-enable software testing and unify instructions.
**Testing**
It is
