This just disables the vulkan headers from defining any symbols
like vkCmdPipelineBarrier2(). Instead, all functions must be loaded
via the loader and used as function pointers as vk->CmdPipelineBarrier2.Mostly just forces developers to write correct code, as using the
symbols can be undesirable in case API users define their own
function wrappers via the loader API.
