* This option will now toggle on the behaviour to fill undefined buffer contents
with a marker value, both if they're created without data (it will be zero
filled instead) or mapped with discard (it will keep the old contents
instead).
* There were too many hard to find problems or misconceptions about the buffer
filling for it to be useful. Now it will be opt-in instead.
* The new function SetCaptureFileComments allows users to add comments to a
capture after creating it at any time.
* We also use anonymous union to remove the need to duplicate API structs for
backwards compatibility.
* Hooking is now done the same way across platform, with different OS
implementations.
* Regardless of how exactly hooks are implemented, we register libraries to hook
and functions to hook within those libraries, and provide a location to store
the original/onwards function pointer. This allows hooking to work whether
it's done using import hooking that doesn't modify target libraries (so using
dlsym or GetProcAddress will return the same value for the onwards function
pointer) or whether it's implemented with prologue patching and trampolines,
where we'd create an infinite loop if we did that.
* We also provide stronger guarantees - the original function pointers will
_always_ be made available as soon as the library is loaded, whether hooked or
not, no exceptions. This means less uncertainty in hooking code about when or
how onward functions will be available.
* OS-specific hook functions are changed to just be implementations of
LibraryHooks functions rather than indirected through macros and pre-processor
definitions.
* In this commit we provide some temporary functions providing the old interface
to reduce churn - the library-specific hook code will be updated shortly after
* In-application API is bumped to 1.1.0 as a new function pointer is
added to the end of the structure.
* This comes with some caveats - capturing a frame is fairly heavy
weight, so capturing a frame might throw off timing-related bugs you
are trying to capture in subsequent frames. If you know your bug is
every other frame though, capturing two can be a quick way to ensure
you get it.
* This API is now intended to be forward and backward compatible as much
as possible. Meaning applications should be able to run without
changing on many RenderDoc versions after the one they are built
against without breaking.
* All function pointers are fetched at once in one versioned GetAPI()
function, to save on constant GetProcAddress/dlsym'ing.
* Otherwise, it's largely similar to the previous API.
