Texture descriptors currently waste a massive ammount of memory, as every one is allocated via a separate BO. As the allocation granularity of the kernel is 4KB and the descriptor is only 256B, 93.75% of the allocated memory is wasted. Add a simple suballocator for the texture descriptors, to allocate multiple ones out of a single kernel BO. This isn't perfect, as freed slots in the suballocated resource are not reused, but worst-case we end up with the same waste as we had before. This also potentially improves efficiency at the kernel side, as this reduces the number of BOs needed for the sampler views in each submit. As the BO is now used by multiple descriptors, avoid syncing with the GPU via the cpu_prep/fini calls, as to not introduce stalls between pending rendering and new descriptors being filled. This is safe, as each suballocation slot is only used once, so newly filled slots are certainly not in use by the GPU.
