Related to nim-lang/Nim#8526

Hi there, I wonder if this binding is usable on Windows x64 now, or some work is required to make it work. Since you said that there are some problems with the compiler, which was a year ago. Another thing is that it was built with SDK 1.0.5.0, which is kinda outdated as well.

EDIT: There never was an issue, I was dumb enough to pass a physical device to vkCreateSwapchainKHR

If trying to create a swapchain with vkCreateSwapchainKHR(device, addr createInfo, nil, addr swapchain) where swapchain is of type VkSwapchainKHR I get SIGSEGV: Illegal Storage access.
I suppose this is just me being dumb but I really can't figure out what I am doing wrong here.

The last tagged version for this is 1.0.5.0, which is from 2016 and has API differences (mainly Vk*Bits vs vk*Bit).

I would make this a PR, but git doesn't allow PRs for tags.

also didn't you think about including your library to https://nim-lang.org/docs/lib.html?

These bindings would enable multi-physical GPU support within a single logical GPU.

vkQueueFamilySparseBindingBit is 0 in the code, but should be 8 according to specs (0 makes also simply makes no sense)
