## Description

This extension builds upon the `VK_KHR_video_encode_queue` extension by enabling the application to perform intra refresh in video encode operations.

## New Structures

- Extending VkPhysicalDeviceFeatures2, VkDeviceCreateInfo:

  - VkPhysicalDeviceVideoEncodeIntraRefreshFeaturesKHR

- Extending VkVideoCapabilitiesKHR:

  - VkVideoEncodeIntraRefreshCapabilitiesKHR

- Extending VkVideoEncodeInfoKHR:

  - VkVideoEncodeIntraRefreshInfoKHR

- Extending VkVideoReferenceSlotInfoKHR:

  - VkVideoReferenceIntraRefreshInfoKHR

- Extending VkVideoSessionCreateInfoKHR:

  - VkVideoEncodeSessionIntraRefreshCreateInfoKHR

## New Enums

- VkVideoEncodeIntraRefreshModeFlagBitsKHR

## New Bitmasks

- VkVideoEncodeIntraRefreshModeFlagsKHR

## New Enum Constants

- `VK_KHR_VIDEO_ENCODE_INTRA_REFRESH_EXTENSION_NAME`

- `VK_KHR_VIDEO_ENCODE_INTRA_REFRESH_SPEC_VERSION`

- Extending VkStructureType:

  - `VK_STRUCTURE_TYPE_PHYSICAL_DEVICE_VIDEO_ENCODE_INTRA_REFRESH_FEATURES_KHR`

  - `VK_STRUCTURE_TYPE_VIDEO_ENCODE_INTRA_REFRESH_CAPABILITIES_KHR`

  - `VK_STRUCTURE_TYPE_VIDEO_ENCODE_INTRA_REFRESH_INFO_KHR`

  - `VK_STRUCTURE_TYPE_VIDEO_ENCODE_SESSION_INTRA_REFRESH_CREATE_INFO_KHR`

  - `VK_STRUCTURE_TYPE_VIDEO_REFERENCE_INTRA_REFRESH_INFO_KHR`

- Extending VkVideoEncodeFlagBitsKHR:

  - `VK_VIDEO_ENCODE_INTRA_REFRESH_BIT_KHR`

If VK_KHR_video_encode_av1 is supported:

- Extending VkVideoEncodeAV1CapabilityFlagBitsKHR:

  - `VK_VIDEO_ENCODE_AV1_CAPABILITY_COMPOUND_PREDICTION_INTRA_REFRESH_BIT_KHR`

If VK_KHR_video_encode_h264 is supported:

- Extending VkVideoEncodeH264CapabilityFlagBitsKHR:

  - `VK_VIDEO_ENCODE_H264_CAPABILITY_B_PICTURE_INTRA_REFRESH_BIT_KHR`

If VK_KHR_video_encode_h265 is supported:

- Extending VkVideoEncodeH265CapabilityFlagBitsKHR:

  - `VK_VIDEO_ENCODE_H265_CAPABILITY_B_PICTURE_INTRA_REFRESH_BIT_KHR`
