Description

Such basic functionality missed from Vulkan core should not be spread among non-KHR extensions.

Texel buffer dynamic indexing is [acknowledged to be missing](https://github.com/KhronosGroup/Vulkan-Docs/issues/952#issuecomment-482982736) from the core Vulkan by an oversight, I think it must be queued for inclusion in the future VK_KHR_maintenance4 extension.

I also don't think VK_EXT_texel_buffer_alignment is vendor specific, I think it should go to VK_KHR_maintenance4 as well.
