Bug Fixes and Improvements

• Fixed some build system warnings with newer Meson versions.
• CPU-based Vulkan implementations such as Lavapipe will now always be enumerated last. This should avoid issues on systems without a dedicated GPU where games could potentially default to a CPU rasterizer.
• Optimized image layout transitions, which may improve performance on Intel GPUs in some games.
• D3D9: Improved performance of texture uploads and occlusion queries in some cases.
• D3D9: Fixed an issue where supported back buffer formats would be reported incorrectly.
• DXGI: Enabled multi-monitor support. This requires a relatively recent Wine version with XRandR 1.4 support to work correctly.
• D3D11: Fixed a number of reference counting issues that could potentially lead to stability issues (PR #1887, PR ##1888).
• D3D11: Improved correctness of NaN handling in shaders with VK_KHR_shader_float_controls, and removed most app workarounds setting d3d11.enableRtOutputNanFixup.
• Enabled d3d11.enableRtOutputNanFixup by default on older RADV versions.
• Enabled d3d11.invariantPosition option by default to fix common Z-fighting issues, especially on RDNA2 GPUs.
• Atelier Ryza 2: Added workaround for video playback breaking D3D11 rendering, like in other games of the series.
• Battle Engine Aquila: Fixed broken textures (PR #1759).
• Dark Messiah of Might & Magic: Work around out-of-memory issues on startup.
• Everquest: Work around performance issues.
• F1 2018/2020: Work around broken compute shaders causing artifacts on AMD drivers, similar to F1 2019 (#1897).
• Hitman 3: Work around AMDAGS issues on AMD GPUs similar to Hitman 2 (PR #1909).
• Mega Man Legacy Collection 2: Fixed rendering issues (#1922).
• Nioh 2: Work around black screen issues.
• Tomb Raider Legend: Work around performance issues (#1685).
