Could be useful to have a pair of functions which maps between Vulkan formats and DXGI formats (i.e. VK_FORMAT_R8_UNORM <-> DXGI_FORMAT_R8_UNORM, VK_FORMAT_R16G16B16A16_SFLOAT<->DXGI_FORMAT_R16G16B16A16_FLOAT, etc.)

Note all defined Vulkan formats have DXGI equivalents.

    There is currently a discussion to automatically generate Vulkan -> DXGI switch from the KTX-Specification repo. See: KhronosGroup/KTX-Software#589. Maybe that can be integrated/used here.
