Description

We should check the status of the extension support in the underlying implementation and return the function pointers of the next layer if it's available.

Research direction

No file, test, or entry point is named. Start by locating the extension-layer dispatch code and the handling for timeline semaphores, then inspect how support in the underlying implementation is detected. Done means the layer exposes the next layer's function pointers when support exists, while preserving the current fallback behavior otherwise.
