148: Change Queue::submit to take &self r=kvark a=LaylConway
This small change allows multiple threads to submit buffers slightly more efficiently, by being able to do it concurrently without a lock on Queue.
In practice currently `Queue::submit` does a lot of locking internally for most of the function's duration, so it's only a small performance win right now, but it opens up the road for more improvements.

145: Mark CommandEncoder as !Send !Sync r=kvark a=LaylConway
These depend on the thread-specific command pool they're allocated from, which requires only one thread accessing them at a time, so they can't be moved to other threads without additional synchronization.

120: prototype of futures for buffer mapping r=grovesNL a=swiftcoder
This is largely in request-for-comment state right now, although it does work.
As written the `GpuFuture` implementation only works with types that are `Copy`, which rules out using a destructor to unmap the buffer. I'm assume it's possible to write a future type that can produce a non-Copy result, but I haven't sufficiently internalised how `Pin` works to see how.

127: Use u8 for buffer mapping r=kvark a=Coder-256
cc @kvark @grovesNL
This is a temporary solution for #119, and a follow-up for #126.

126: Fix generic bounds on buffer mapping r=grovesNL a=kvark
Smaller (and incomplete!) alternative to #119 while it's still discussed.
One missing piece here is alignment. cc @Coder-256
Also, importing `wgpu-core` as just "core" wasn't the best idea 😅 : it collides with the actual `core`.

115: Handle error case for SwapChain::get_next_texture r=kvark a=antonok-edm
Updates `SwapChain::get_next_texture` to account for https://github.com/gfx-rs/wgpu/pull/369. Otherwise, an invalid `Id` is returned and may cause confusing errors.

109: add initial skybox example, ref #93 r=m4b a=m4b
1. doesn't render the images at all
2. mip map stuff needs clarification
3. will update uniform with temporal rotation so we can see the skybox better

98: Add pixels to the friends list r=kvark a=parasyte
We're using `wgpu` to create the world's most powerful pixel frame buffer. 😂
The crate isn't published yet. Waiting for `wgpu` 0.4: https://github.com/parasyte/pixels/issues/16
