This change switches the internal enums we pass around from VkFormat to FormatID. The end goal of the refactor is to allow the Vulkan back-end to store packed tables indexed by FormatID. Because VkFormat has large gaps in its enum space we'd otherwise need to use unordered data structures like unordered_map. The change removes the redundant VkFormat storage from vk::Format and uses a new table query to return the VkFormat that 1:1 matches an angle::FormatID. We also include a reverse mapping for use with native Vulkan get functions for Android. Also moves sRGB conversion functions into renderer_utils. A couple sRGB formats that don't exist in GL are no longer handled by the sRGB conversion functions. These formats should be extremely rare.

ANGLE - Almost Native Graphics Layer Engine
The goal of ANGLE is to allow users of multiple operating systems to seamlessly run WebGL and other OpenGL ES content by translating OpenGL ES API calls to one of the hardware-supported APIs available for that platform. ANGLE currently provides translation from OpenGL ES 2.0, 3.0 and 3.1 to Vulkan, desktop OpenGL, OpenGL ES, Direct3D 9, and Direct3D 11. Future plans include ES 3.2, translation to Metal and MacOS, Chrome OS, and Fuchsia support.

ANGLE v1.0.772 was certified compliant by passing the OpenGL ES 2.0.3 conformance tests in October 2011.
ANGLE has received the following certifications with the Vulkan backend:
- OpenGL ES 2.0: ANGLE 2.1.0.d46e2fb1e341 (Nov, 2019)
- OpenGL ES 3.0: ANGLE 2.1.0.f18ff947360d (Feb, 2020)
- OpenGL ES 3.1: ANGLE 2.1.0.f5dace0f1e57 (Jul, 2020)
ANGLE also provides an implementation of the EGL 1.4 specification.
ANGLE is used as the default WebGL backend for both Google Chrome and Mozilla Firefox on Windows platforms. Chrome uses ANGLE for all graphics rendering on Windows, including the accelerated Canvas2D implementation and the Native Client sandbox environment.
Portions of the ANGLE shader compiler are used as a shader validator and translator by WebGL implementations across multiple platforms. It is used on Mac OS X, Linux, and in mobile variants of the browsers. Having one shader validator helps to ensure that a consistent set of GLSL ES shaders are accepted across browsers and platforms. The shader translator can be used to translate shaders to other shading languages, and to optionally apply shader modifications to work around bugs or quirks in the native graphics drivers. The translator targets Desktop GLSL, Vulkan GLSL, Direct3D HLSL, and even ESSL for native GLES2 platforms.
