vulkan: Use VK_EXT_shader_64bit_indexing to handle large mat_mul(_id) (#18678)

This fixes incoherent output in Llama-4-Maverick-17B-128E-PAB-Q8_0, which
has a mul_mat_id with an A matrix that's Q8_0 8192 x 5120 x 128.

This should work when the number of blocks in the A matrix is less than 2^32
(for mul_mat_vec or mul_mm_cm2), or for mul_mm I think the limit is like
2^32*LOAD_VEC_A elements.

• Divide batch_stride by QUANT_K earlier, so the block index calculation works in 32b.
• Each vk_pipeline_struct has a linked list of pipelines that will allow it to handle
  variants. So far this change just adds a single use case for this, compiling with the
  e64BitIndexingEXT flag.
• Use the 64b indexing variant when the A matrix is larger than maxStorageBufferRange.

64-bit indexing has some cost - around 3-5% in MoE models, so it's worth the effort
to avoid enabling it unconditionally.
