Module adapter

Physical devices and adapters.

The PhysicalDevice trait specifies the API a backend must provide for dealing with and querying a physical device, such as a particular GPU. An Adapter is a struct containing a PhysicalDevice and metadata for a particular GPU, generally created from an Instance of that backend. adapter.open_with(...) will return a Device that has the properties specified.
