vulkan: dispatch to the worker every 32 draws, wake it only when it waits

Every 8 draws the GPU thread handed a command chunk to the Vulkan worker and woke it
with a system call (~2% of the GPU thread at ~55,000 draws a second). Chunks now go
every 32 draws (a full chunk still goes on its own), and the worker is woken only
when it is waiting; a busy worker pops the queue before waiting again.
