Description
This PR adds functions to make
BufferSliceusable in more situations.BufferSlice::buffer(),BufferSlice::offset()andBufferSlice::size()allow decomposing aBufferSlice. This allows a function which receives aBufferSliceto use it, for example, in texture copy operations. I'd like to have a more ergonomic interface to that, but I haven’t thought of one; adding these getters ensures that there is never any unavoidable inexpressiveness. However,BufferSliceto itsBufferand accessing data outside the slice. I think that this is worth considering, but that on net it is more important to be flexible than to be strict, here, particularly as buffers are interior mutable and clonable so there is no fundamental mutability-xor-sharing like&mut [u8]would have.BufferSlice::size()returns aBufferSizerather than anOption<BufferSize>. See Refactor: eliminate unnecessaryOption<BufferSize>#7147 for context on why I think this is the right choice — theOptionshould, I think, be considered an obsolete implementation detail.impl From<BufferSlice> for BufferBindingimpl From<BufferSlice> for BindingResourcePlease merge this PR without squashing; the commits are self-contained.
Testing
