Support for VK_EXT_device_fault Vulkan extension

[DenysenkoIvan]

Description of Feature

I just wanted to let you know that it would be great to have VK_EXT_device_fault extension supported by RenderDoc. Currently, I have to disable this extension whenever I use RenderDoc, which requires recompiling my project since the extension list is hardcoded in my application. Life would be easier if RenderDoc supported VK_EXT_device_fault.

Environment

• RenderDoc version: 1.40
• Operating System: Windows 11 25H2
• Graphics API: Vulkan 1.4

So that you know, there's really no reason to hardcode an optional/debug extension like this. If you add simple code to enumerate available extensions before enabling them it will work both with RenderDoc and with any drivers that don't support the extension.

That’s a great point, thank you. But would you consider adding support for this extension regardless of my specific use case?

Yes the feature request still stands but I wanted to point out that this shouldn't block you.
