Refine workflow to improve cross-platform dependency setup and Vulkan SDK configuration

- Build `yaml-cpp` from source on Linux for greater control and flexibility.
- Adjust Windows Vulkan SDK variables for consistency and add CMake configuration.
- Enhance macOS dependency handling by installing `stb` and `tinyobjloader` from source.
- Add Vulkan SDK installation verification on Windows.
