`VK_INSTANCE_LAYERS` layers order is not always followed

`VK_INSTANCE_LAYERS` allows enabling and ordering the layers. 

This is working fine :
- When the `layers` section of `vk_loader_settings.json` is not written.
- When `layers` is written empty, `VK_INSTANCE_LAYERS` is ignored as expected.

However, the interaction between the `layers` section and `VK_INSTANCE_LAYERS` is not following the `VK_INSTANCE_LAYERS` order.

An obvious case is when `vk_loader_settings.json` is:
```
{
    "file_format_version": "1.0.0",
    "settings_array": [
        {
            "device_configurations": [
                {
                    "deviceName": "AMD Radeon RX 6600 XT",
                    "deviceUUID": [

                    "driverName": "AMD proprietary driver",
                    "driverUUID": [
                        65,

                        45,

                        73,
                        78,
                        45,
                        68,
                        82,
                        86,
                        0,

                    "driverVersion": 8388961
                }
            ],
            "layers": [
                {
                    "control": "unordered_layer_location"

            ],
            "stderr_log": [
                "layer"
            ]
        }
    ]
}
```

Then when I launch `vkcube`, I am getting this log (`VK_INSTANCE_LAYERS` order is not respected):

The question becomes how to handle `VK_INSTANCE_LAYERS` layers order when `vk_loader_settings.json` `layers` section contains more than `unordered_layer_location`. I believe this case was already discussed in the past.

When the `layers` section is created as follow:
```
            "layers": [
                {
                    "control": "unordered_layer_location"
                },
                {
                    "control": "on",
                    "name": "VK_LAYER_KHRONOS_validation",
                    "path": "E:\\VulkanSDK\\1.4.335.0-rc\\Bin\\VkLayer_khronos_validation.json",
                    "treat_as_implicit_manifest": false
                }
            ],
```
and VK_INSTANCE_LAYERS set to 
```
VK_LAYER_KHRONOS_profiles;VK_LAYER_KHRONOS_validation;VK_LAYER_NV_optimus
```

Then, I would expect the layers to be ordered like:
```
VK_LAYER_KHRONOS_profiles
VK_LAYER_NV_optimus
VK_LAYER_KHRONOS_validation
```

It remains the case of the *implicit layers* and *application enabled layers* that are not listed in `layers` or `VK_INSTANCE_LAYERS`, my recollection of our discussion was that we should follow this diagram:
<img width="1385" height="609" alt="Image" src="https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/faa0b009-961d-4889-a492-22e0c638cb19" /> within the `unordered_layer_location` section.

So following my case, we see that my system has also VK_LAYER_AMD_switchable_graphics and VK_LAYER_NV_present layers, so the order should be:

```
VK_LAYER_AMD_switchable_graphics (implict enabled)
VK_LAYER_NV_present (implict enabled)
VK_LAYER_KHRONOS_profiles (VK_INSTANCE_LAYERS enabled)
VK_LAYER_NV_optimus (VK_INSTANCE_LAYERS enabled)
(here would come application enabled layers not in `layers` section)
VK_LAYER_KHRONOS_validation (`layers` enabled)
```
