In a typical application, most draws will use different uniforms values for
things like the world position and orientation. In the current state of WebGPU
this means that a new bind group needs to be created for each draw to set the
right uniforms. Bind group creation is expected to be more expensive than
recording draws because they incur an allocation.
This feature is to reduce the number of bind groups that need to be
created.
The patch implements dynamic buffer offset on vulkan backend. But Vulkan
takes dynamic offset as uint32_t type, which is not the same size as the VkDeviceSize
used to create buffers so we cast them for now.
