The backend panics while trying to process uniform global variables
when the variable's name is not found in the emitted ReflectionInfo.
This patch converts the panicking line into an explicit check, and
ignores the corresponding global variable if the name iis not found.
Resolves#1803
This clarifies that the window that a surface is created on must be kept
alive for the lifetime of the surface. This requirement and a proposal
to change it are described in https://github.com/gfx-rs/wgpu/issues/1463

1744: hal/dx12: fix depth formats and pipeline layout r=kvark a=kvark
**Connections**
Closes#1727
**Description**
There were 2 problems. One was that the reversing of the pipeline layout was done wrong (again). I don't know how it still worked on one of my machines :/
The other was that the backend relied on the depth format reinterpretation without using a typeless format. This is OK on higher-level platforms, but we should be doing it more careful. I tried to approach this maximally efficient: we only use the typeless format if all of the following are true:
1. it's a depth/stencil format
2. it needs to be seen as SRV/UAV
So in the case of a simple depth texture, we are still going to be using a fully-qualified format, and therefore get all of the benefit of HW compression on it.
**Testing**
Ran the examples on Intel
