773: Error handling for data transfer API r=kvark a=GabrielMajeri

**Connections**
Work on the error model described in #376 

**Description**
Removes assertions from the transfer functions, instead returning a custom error type.

**Testing**
Checked with `player` and `wgpu-rs`: https://github.com/gfx-rs/wgpu-rs/pull/430

wgpu player

This is application that allows replaying the wgpu workloads recorded elsewhere.

Launch as:

player <trace-dir>

When built with "winit" feature, it's able to replay the workloads that operate on a swapchain. It renders each frame sequentially, then waits for the user to close the window. When built without "winit", it launches in console mode and can replay any trace that doesn't use swapchains.

Note: replaying is currently restricted to the same backend, as one used for recording a trace. It is straightforward, however, to just replace the backend in RON, since it's serialized as plain text. Valid values are: Vulkan, Metal, Dx12, and Dx11.
