//! Descriptor sets creation and management
//!
//! This module is dedicated to managing descriptor sets. There are three concepts in Vulkan
//! related to descriptor sets:
//!
//! - A `DescriptorSetLayout` is a Vulkan object that describes to the Vulkan implementation the
//!   layout of a future descriptor set. When you allocate a descriptor set, you have to pass an
//!   instance of this object. This is represented with the `UnsafeDescriptorSetLayout` type in
//!   vulkano.
//! - A `DescriptorPool` is a Vulkan object that holds the memory of descriptor sets and that can
//!   be used to allocate and free individual descriptor sets. This is represented with the
//!   `UnsafeDescriptorPool` type in vulkano.
//! - A `DescriptorSet` contains the bindings to resources and is allocated from a pool. This is
//!   represented with the `UnsafeDescriptorSet` type in vulkano.
//!
//! In addition to this, vulkano defines the following:
//!
//! - The `DescriptorPool` trait can be implemented on types from which you can allocate and free
//!   descriptor sets. However it is different from Vulkan descriptor pools in the sense that an
//!   implementation of the `DescriptorPool` trait can manage multiple Vulkan descriptor pools.
//! - The `StdDescriptorPool` type is a default implementation of the `DescriptorPool` trait.
//! - The `DescriptorSet` trait is implemented on types that wrap around Vulkan descriptor sets in
//!   a safe way. A Vulkan descriptor set is inherently unsafe, so we need safe wrappers around
//!   them.
//! - The `SimpleDescriptorSet` type is a default implementation of the `DescriptorSet` trait.
//! - The `DescriptorSetsCollection` trait is implemented on collections of types that implement
//!   `DescriptorSet`. It is what you pass to the draw functions.
