[wgpu-hal.gles] Error log for failed GLES heuristics

 - `wgpu::Id` now implements `PartialOrd`/`Ord` allowing it to be put in `BTreeMap`s. By @cwfitzgerald and @9291Sam in [#5176](https://github.com/gfx-rs/wgpu/pull/5176)
 - `wgpu::CommandEncoder::write_timestamp` requires now the new `wgpu::Features::TIMESTAMP_QUERY_INSIDE_ENCODERS` feature which is available on all native backends but not on WebGPU (due to a spec change `write_timestamp` is no longer supported on WebGPU).
