WebGPU requires certain variables to be initialized, whereas there are
known issues with using initializers in Vulkan. This PR is the first
of three implementing a pass to decompose initialized variables into
a variable declaration followed by a store. This has been broken up
into multiple PRs, because there 3 distinct cases that need to be
handled, which require separate implementations.
This first PR implements the basic infrastructure that is needed, and
handling of Function storage class variables. Private and Output will
be handled in future PRs.
This is part of resolving #2388
In WebGPU, the component operand 0xFFFFFFFF is forbidden, but in
Vulkan it is used to indicate a value is undefined. When converting to
WebGPU, 0xFFFFFFFF needs to converted to a legal value, though the
specific one does not matter, since it was used to indicate an
undefined entry in the original code. Choosing to use 0, since the
operands are required to be on [0, N-1], so 0 is guaranteed to always
be valid.
Fixes#2349
