feat(vulkan): implement enhanced texture and shader management
This commit adds improved Vulkan functionality to the Citron emulator: - Add thread-safe texture management with automatic error recovery - Implement shader caching with validation support - Add robust error handling for Vulkan operations - Implement platform-specific initialization for Windows, Linux, and Android These enhancements improve stability when handling texture loading errors and provide better recovery mechanisms for Vulkan failures.
