Added "LastUseFrameIndex" to JSON dump. Changed behavior of vmaGetAllocationInfo, vmaTouchAllocation to update allocation.lastUseFrameIndex even if allocation cannot become lost. Documented it.

Allocations that have been "touched" in current frame or VmaPoolCreateInfo::frameInUseCount frames back
cannot become lost.
<b>Q: Can I touch allocation that cannot become lost?</b>
Yes, although it has no visible effect.
Calls to vmaGetAllocationInfo() and vmaTouchAllocation() update last use frame index
also for allocations that cannot become lost, but the only way to observe it is to dump
internal allocator state using vmaBuildStatsString().
You can use this feature for debugging purposes to explicitly mark allocations that you use
