Allocating and binding a memory object for a buffer

In Vulkan, buffers don't have their own memory. To be able to use buffers in our application and to store any data inside them, we need to allocate a memory object and bind it to a buffer.

How to do it...

1. Take the handle of a physical device from which the logical device was created. Store it in a variable of type VkPhysicalDevice named physical_device.
2. Create a variable of type VkPhysicalDeviceMemoryProperties named physical_device_memory_properties.
3. Call vkGetPhysicalDeviceMemoryProperties( physical_device, &physical_device_memory_properties ), for which provide the handle of a physical device and a pointer to the physical_device_memory_properties variable. This call will store memory parameters (number of heaps, their size, and types) of the physical device used for processing.
4. Take the handle of a logical device created from the physical device, represented by the physical_device variable. Store the handle in a variable of type VkDevice...
