Suggestion: Support for Vulkan built in variables #90

Description

It would be very useful to add support for built in variables for Vulkan. While it seems to be partly implemented (the built in variables show up in the auto-complete dropdown). It still gives errors when you add it to your code

Steps to recreate

create an object using an inbuilt variable for Vulkan, for example: vec4(positions[gl_VertexIndex], 0.0, 1.0);

Current behavior

the inbuilt variable shows up in the autocomplete menu however once it is entered the line has the error gl_VertexIndex' : undeclared identifier

Expected behavior

no error is created after using built in variables for Vulkan

From https://github.com/danielscherzer/GLSL#readme "Note that support for Vulkan shader types is currently only provided via an external compiler (like glslangValidator)." So put in the path to your compiler and parameters in the extension options dialog and it should work. Hope this helps.
