Update wgpu-hal requirement from 0.14.1 to 26.0.0

[dependabot]

Updates the requirements on wgpu-hal to permit the latest version.

Release notes

Sourced from wgpu-hal's releases.

v26.0.0

Major Features

New method TextureView::texture

You can now call texture_view.texture() to get access to the texture that a given texture view points to.

By @​cwfitzgerald and @​Wumpf in #7907.

as_hal calls now return guards instead of using callbacks.

Previously, if you wanted to get access to the wgpu-hal or underlying api types, you would call as_hal and get the hal type as a callback. Now the function returns a guard which dereferences to the hal type.

- device.as_hal::<hal::api::Vulkan>(|hal_device| {...});
+ let hal_device: impl Deref<Item = hal::vulkan::Device> = device.as_hal::<hal::api::Vulkan>();

By @​cwfitzgerald in #7863.

Enabling Vulkan Features/Extensions

For those who are doing vulkan/wgpu interop or passthrough and need to enable features/extensions that wgpu does not expose, there is a new wgpu_hal::vulkan::Adapter::open_with_callback that allows the user to modify the pnext chains and extension lists populated by wgpu before we create a vulkan device. This should vastly simplify the experience, as previously you needed to create a device yourself.

Underlying api interop is a quickly evolving space, so we welcome all feedback!

type VkApi = wgpu::hal::api::Vulkan;
let adapter: wgpu::Adapter = ...;
let mut buffer_device_address_create_info = ash::vk::PhysicalDeviceBufferDeviceAddressFeatures { .. };
let hal_device: wgpu::hal::OpenDevice<VkApi> = adapter
.as_hal::<VkApi>()
.unwrap()
.open_with_callback(
wgpu::Features::empty(),
&wgpu::MemoryHints::Performance,
Some(Box::new(|args| {
// Add the buffer device address extension.
args.extensions.push(ash::khr::buffer_device_address::NAME);
// Extend the create info with the buffer device address create info.
*args.create_info = args
.create_info
.push_next(&mut buffer_device_address_create_info);
// We also have access to the queue create infos if we need them.
let _ = args.queue_create_infos;
})),
)
.unwrap();
</tr></table>
