/// Represents a complete GPU configuration executing work.
///
/// There are two kinds of pipelines: Graphics and Compute
///
/// A pipeline includes fixed-function state (i.e. configuration) and programmable state
/// (i.e. shaders). Pipelines are expensive objects to create. Ideally, they should be created
/// when the application initializes or on a separate thread.
///
/// Pipelines are bound by command buffers. Fewer pipeline changes is better, and it is often worth
/// batching draw calls that use the same pipeline to happen together so that the pipeline does not
/// need to be changed as frequently.
///
/// Pipelines must not be dropped if they are in use by the GPU.
