In order to preserve padding properly for MSL, we need to use its
packed_vec type for all vec3 types in storage buffers, not just struct
members. This commit includes a complete rewrite of the PackedVec3
transform to achieve this. The key details are:
* An internal `__packed_vec3<>` type was added, which corresponds to a
`type::Vector` with an additional flag to indicate that it will be
emitted as packed vector.
* The `PackedVec3` transform replaces all vec3 types used in
host-shareable address spaces with the internal `__packed_vec3`
type. This includes vec3 types that appear as the store type of a
pointer.
* When used as an array element, these `__packed_vec3` types are
wrapped in a struct that contains a single `__packed_vec3`
member. This allows us to add an `@align()` attribute that ensures
that `array<vec3<T>>` still has the correct array element stride.
* When the `vec3<T>` appears as a struct member in the input program,
we apply the `@align()` to that member to ensure that we do not
change its offset.
* Matrix types with three rows that are used in memory are replaced
with an array of columns, where each column uses a `__packed_vec3`
inside an aligned wrapper structure as above.
* Accesses to host-shareable memory that involve any of these types
invoke a "pack" or "unpack" helper function to convert them to the
equivalent type that uses `__packed_vec3` or a regular `vec3` as
required.
* The `chromium_internal_relaxed_uniform_layout` extension is used to
avoid issues where modifying a type in the uniform address space
triggers stricter layout validation rules.
