Layer disabled with Vulkan-Loader v1.3.212 #20

I'm trying to use vkdevicechooser with Vulkan-Loader v1.3.212 on Debian 11 but the ENABLE_DEVICE_CHOOSER_LAYER=1 environment variable seems to have no effect.

Getting log lines like this with VK_LOADER_DEBUG=all & vulkaninfo:

INFO:             loader_add_implicit_layer: Disabling implicit layer VK_LAYER_MESA_device_select for using an old API version 1.2 versus application requested 1.3

Suspect it's related to KhronosGroup/Vulkan-Loader#870.

Bumping api_version to "1.3.0" in vkdevicechooser.json seems to work on my system:

No idea if that's "correct" though.
