b9af701bbe Separate Guest and Host Presentation + AChoreographer V-Sync Event
We had issues when combining host and guest presentation since certain configurations in guest presentation such as double buffering were very unoptimal for the host and would significantly affect the FPS. As a result of this, we've now made host presentation have its own presentation textures which are copied into from the guest at presentation time, allowing us to change parameters of the host presentation independently of the guest.

We've implemented the infrastructure for this which includes being able to create images from host GPU memory using VMA, an optimized linear texture sync and a method to do on-GPU texture-to-texture copies.

We've also moved to driving the V-Sync event using AChoreographer on its on thread in this PR, which more accurately encapsulates HOS behavior and allows games such as ARMS to boot as they depend on the V-Sync event being signalled even when the game isn't presenting.

0a38bebb2e Vulkan PhysicalDevice + Device Initialization + Report Accurate Version
Vulkan Device initialization is handled now, it supports required extensions but support for optional extensions/features/properties will come in later when we require those. In addition, we now correctly report the version of Skyline to Vulkan which can be accessed from debugging tools. 

There's also a minor change regarding the search pattern for `SkylineLibraries` which now only searches in headers of libraries and it also explicitly excludes the redundant `vulkan.hpp` from the `Vulkan-Headers` repository.

7e7a792dc5 Use per-thread scheduler condvars and clean up AS filters
Per-thread condvars previously caused issues due to an audren bug, now
that's fixed they have a clear performance benefit.

c37f350c02 Move from GPLv3 to LGPLv3 or later
Skyline has been licensed with GPLv3 but as we want to look into optional ads in the future, and that would require linking AdMob SDKs which are proprietary. So, we decided to move to LGPLv3 so we could keep that option open as a revenue stream. 

We've gathered consent from all contributors for the license change:
