Description

The Khronos Vulkan Tutorial introduces `vk::ImageMemoryBarrier2` "`Drawing a triangle/Drawing/Command Buffers`" , but in a later chapter : "`Texture Mapping/Images`" , it again tells us to create `transitionImageLayout` function with the old `vk::ImageMemoryBarrier`

Research direction

Compare the transitionImageLayout guidance in “Drawing a triangle/Drawing/Command Buffers” with “Texture Mapping/Images,” focusing on the differing vk::ImageMemoryBarrier2 and vk::ImageMemoryBarrier APIs. Update the later chapter so its instructions are consistent with the newer approach, then verify that the tutorial no longer directs readers to the old barrier type.
