return the IMAGE_TYPE::SAMPLE_COUNT_* type matching the specified sample count NOTE: "sample_count" must be in [0, 64]

acquires a resource, returns { resource, index }

adds a single options

adds multiple options at once (NOTE: use braces { ... })

adds resources from another resource tracking object state

aligns the specified size to the minimal multiple memory size (always upwards!)

returns the angle (in [0, pi]) between this vector and another vector

returns the angle (in [-pi, pi]) between this vector and another vector around the specified axis NOTE: axis must be normalized!

returns the angle (in [0, pi]) between this vector and another vector ref: https://people.eecs.berkeley.edu/~wkahan/Mindless.pdf NOTE: according to Ka

returns this vector as a tuple

returns this matrix as a tuple

returns this vector as a tuple, with each tuple element referencing its corresponding vector component

NOTE: the trouble with these is that pointer bitcasts are problematic in Vulkan

load (no proper instruction for this, so just perform a "+ 0")
