Adding Vulkan-style statistics counters where available #1

Previously, the 'stats' interface just used HWCPipe to
interrogate performance counters from the device. HWCPipe
is not widely supported, so this really only worked for
Arm devices.

This change allows multiple 'StatsProviders' to be used.
Each provider can supply all, some, or none of the requested
counters depending on its capabilities. Any counters not
supplied by one provider will be requested of the next in
the list until one is found, or we run out of providers.
So, CPU counters can come from HWCPipe for example, whilst
GPU counters come from Vulkan's extension.

The StatsProvider defines an abstract interface that is
implemented by the concrete providers. The parameters used
for graphing the statistics have moved from the GUI classes
into the StatsProvider also. This allows providers to modify
the names, units and scaling of counters where these differ
from the default values.

General Checklist:

Please ensure the following points are checked:

  • My code follows the coding style
  • I have reviewed file licenses
  • I have commented any added functions (in line with Doxygen)
  • I have commented any code that could be hard to understand
  • My changes do not add any new compiler warnings
  • My changes do not add any new validation layer errors or warnings
  • I have used existing framework/helper functions where possible
  • My changes build and run on Windows, Linux, macOS and Android. Otherwise I have documented any exceptions

Sample Checklist

If your PR contains a new or modified sample, these further checks must be carried out in addition to the General Checklist:

  • I have tested the sample on at least one compliant Vulkan implementation
  • If the sample is vendor-specific, I have tagged it appropriately
  • I have stated on what implementation the sample has been tested so that others can test on different implementations and platforms
  • Any dependent assets have been merged and published in downstream modules

Simplifies code in device
Based on private feedback from Zandro, I've moved the
construction of the stats object into the base
VulkanSamples class which leaves individual samples
to just request the samples they would like.

The active_frame_index is no longer passed to
update_stats() or the command_buffer_begun/ended()
methods. It is fetched internally by the providers
that require it.
size_t -> uint32_t
Override prepare_render_context() to use custom render_context.
Ensures stats always sees the right render context.
