Description

Some CTS tests fail on shader releasing and acquiring shared variables.

This is most likely fixable with effort within the implementations.

In the meantime, these use cases can be disabled in CTS and reported as Not Supported, by adding a VkPhysicalDevicePortabilitySubsetFeaturesKHR:: shaderSharedVariableReleaseAcquire capability.

This affects 2 CTS tests:

dEQP-VK.memory_model.message_passing.permuted_index.release_acquire
dEQP-VK.memory_model.message_passing.permuted_index.release_acquire_atomic_payload
  Fail (Fail)

Research direction

Start by locating the portability-subset feature definitions and the CTS handling for dEQP-VK.memory_model.message_passing.permuted_index.release_acquire and release_acquire_atomic_payload. Confirm how unsupported capabilities are reported, then add the shaderSharedVariableReleaseAcquire capability so both tests report Not Supported; run these CTS tests to verify the result.
