QEMU with VirtIO GPU Vulkan Support

With its latest reales qemu added the Venus patches so that virtio-gpu now support venus encapsulation for vulkan. This is one more piece to the puzzle towards full Vulkan support.

An outdated blog post on clollabora described in 2021 how to enable 3D acceleration of Vulkan applications in QEMU through the Venus experimental Vulkan driver for VirtIO-GPU with a local development environment. Following up on the outdated write up, this is how its done today.

	Why is this one giant script instead of a bunch of smaller scripts?
	Mostly this comes down to BuildGraph and personal preference. As the language BuildGraph isn't
	really much of a programming language there is no easy way to use an IDE and jump between
	includes, find usages of variables, and just generally quickly search things. It was found to
	be easier to have a single large file that a developer can quickly jump up and down in when
	trying to understand what the BuildGraph script is doing.
