WriteBufferDescriptor / WriteSampledImageDescriptor / RegisterSampler /
WriteSwapchainDescriptors each FlushDevice()'d the entire multi-KB per-frame
descriptor heap after writing one few-byte descriptor. Add a ranged
VulkanBuffer::FlushDevice(offset, bytes) that flushes only the touched bytes,
rounding the range outward to nonCoherentAtomSize as vkFlushMappedMemoryRanges
requires (the WHOLE_SIZE path sidestepped that). The coherent-memory gate from
issue #60 is preserved — coherent memory still skips the flush entirely.
The descriptor writers now self-flush their written range, so the redundant
whole-heap flushes in UIRenderer::Initialize and the resize callback are gone.
Rounding lives in AlignMappedFlushRange (pure math) and is unit-tested without
a device in the new VulkanBufferRangedFlush test; the change was also verified
end-to-end by running HelloUI on a real GPU with validation layers (font-atlas
glyphs, sampler and storage-image descriptors all flush correctly, no VUIDs).
