Bump wgpu from 0.17.1 to 0.18.0

[dependabot]

Bumps wgpu from 0.17.1 to 0.18.0.

Release notes

Sourced from wgpu's releases.

v0.18.0

Desktop OpenGL 3.3+ Support on Windows

We now support OpenGL on Windows! This brings support for a vast majority of the hardware that used to be covered by our DX11 backend. As of this writing we support OpenGL 3.3+, though there are efforts to reduce that further.

This allows us to cover the last 12 years of Intel GPUs (starting with Ivy Bridge; aka 3xxx), and the last 16 years of AMD (starting with Terascale; aka HD 2000) / NVidia GPUs (starting with Tesla; aka GeForce 8xxx).

By @​Zoxc in #4248

Timestamp Queries Supported on Metal and OpenGL

Timestamp queries are now supported on both Metal and Desktop OpenGL. On Apple chips on Metal, they only support timestamp queries in command buffers or in the renderpass descriptor, they do not support them inside a pass.

Metal: By @​Wumpf in #4008
OpenGL: By @​Zoxc in #4267

Render/Compute Pass Query Writes

Addition of the TimestampWrites type to compute and render pass descriptors to allow profiling on tilers which do not support timestamps inside passes.

Added an example to demonstrate the various kinds of timestamps.

Additionally, metal now supports timestamp queries!

By @​FL33TW00D & @​wumpf in #3636.

Occlusion Queries

We now support binary occlusion queries! This allows you to determine if any of the draw calls within the query drew any pixels.

Use the new occlusion_query_set field on RenderPassDescriptor to give a query set that occlusion queries will write to.

let mut rpass = encoder.begin_render_pass(&wgpu::RenderPassDescriptor {
    // ...
+   occlusion_query_set: Some(&my_occlusion_query_set),
});

Within the renderpass do the following to write the occlusion query results to the query set at the given index:

rpass.begin_occlusion_query(index);
rpass.draw(...);
rpass.draw(...);
rpass.end_occlusion_query();

These are binary occlusion queries, so the result will be either 0 or an unspecified non-zero value.
