build: Remove Volk dependency

The intent of using Volk for function loading was to validate Volk's
implementation continually with each header update. This didn't end up
occurring, as Volk does not get updated in lock step with Vulkan-Tools,
leading to Vulkan-Tools using an older version of Volk. And then during
SDK release the version would need to be updated at the last minute,
causing churn and extra work.

Function loading now occurs in two new files, cube_functions.h and
vulkaninfo_functions.h. Since both cube and vulkaninfo's function
usage are fixed (as in not code-generated), it is straightforward to
implement the necessary Vulkan-Loader library opening and function
loading code.

How to Build and Run

BUILD.md includes directions for building all components as well as running the vkcube demo applications.

Version Tagging Scheme

Updates to this repository which correspond to a new Vulkan specification release are tagged using the following format: v<version> (e.g., v1.3.266).

Note: Marked version releases have undergone thorough testing but do not imply the same quality level as SDK tags. SDK tags follow the vulkan-sdk-<version>.<patch> format (e.g., vulkan-sdk-1.3.266.0).

This scheme was adopted following the 1.3.266 Vulkan specification release.
