render/vulkan: add Vulkan renderer

This new renderer is implemented with the existing wlr_renderer API
(which is known to be sub-optimal for some operations). It's not
used by default, but users can opt-in by setting WLR_RENDERER=vulkan.

The renderer depends on VK_EXT_image_drm_format_modifier and
VK_EXT_physical_device_drm.
