This implements the use of VK_FILTER_CUBIC_EXT as a replacement for the software-based bicubic window adapting filter, used primarily for texture sampling in upscaled or downscaled surfaces such as UI, transparency effects, and screen-space elements in Unreal Engine 4 titles.
The Vulkan cubic filter is now conditionally enabled if the following are satisfied:
The device supports VK_EXT_filter_cubic
The format used supports VK_FORMAT_FEATURE_SAMPLED_IMAGE_FILTER_CUBIC_BIT_EXT
This change improves visual quality while reducing GPU workload by offloading cubic filtering to the driver instead of running custom sampling code in shaders. On supported hardware (e.g. desktop GPUs or high-end Adreno/AMD devices), it results in smoother transitions, improved transparency sampling, and better fidelity with lower shader complexity.
Fallback to the original software bicubic logic remains in place for devices lacking the extension or format capability.
Tested on several UE4 titles and confirmed to preserve or enhance visual output, especially in alpha-blended and UI-heavy scenes.

The actual SPIRV Shader Optimization option doesn't seem to do anything as long as it isn't vinculed, so let's rework it to make it work

revert [Texture_cache] Better memory handling for devices with lower memory allocations (#233)
Means games like Minecraft Dungeons, Sea of Stars, Luigi Mansion 2, Astroneer, Alan Wake, etc are now playable.
It also cleans up the recent abi.cpp and bindless texture commits a bit.
Everything is in #ifdef ANDROID - The biggest change is CACHING_PAGEBITS = 12.
Without that the way the buffercache grows and joins buffers can cause Android to run out of memory (as you end up with just one big buffer that needs to be copied every time it grows)
Also patches up ffmpeg issues.

Had showed some regressions on devices with higher specifications, will be refined to return as a toggle in a later commit.
