Description
This is a wish; other decoding APIs have utilities like vainfo, vdpauinfo, nv-video-info to display all supported video codecs, profiles, levels and capabilities, but vulkaninfo currently only prints whether a decoding extension is supported.

Research direction
The request concerns vulkaninfo's current reporting of video decoding support; start by reviewing that output and its entry point. Compare it with vainfo, vdpauinfo, and nv-video-info, focusing on codec, profile, level, and capability details. Done means vulkaninfo provides the requested detailed decoding and encoding operation logging.
