Vulkan: Generate gl_Position pre-rotation in SPIR-V
Instead of having the translator output pre-rotation code in the vertex
stage based on a specialization constant, this change makes the SPIR-V
transformer perform pre-rotation of gl_Position on the last geometry
stage.
An alternative solution would be to generate pre-rotation code in the
translator in every geometry stage, each controlled by a separate
specialization constant. This change avoids unnecessary modifications
to earlier stages. The generated shaders are also smaller, as they
don't contain a mat2[8] pre-rotation constant matrix. The SPIR-V
transformer knows the pre-rotation at transformation time, so it can
simply use swizzles to achieve the same results.
This also ties in with upcoming changes which move gl_Position.z
correction to the last geometry shader stage, which is trivially done
piggy-backing on the infrastructure in this change.
