This gives +8% with Wolfeinstein Youngblood on my Vega64, and
according to someone else, it also improves performance with Doom
2016 and Wolfenstein 2 (and probably other ID Tech games).

This improvement is because Youngblood uses GENERAL for the main
depth-only pass and TC-compat HTILE is now enabled with GENERAL if
we know that we are outside of a render loop. This obviously also
reduces the number of HTILE decompressions from/to GENERAL.

Note that Youngblood violates the Vulkan spec regarding render loops
because they are only allowed with input attachments. Expect possible
rendering issues if apps use render loops with the wrong way (ie.
without input attachmens) because HTILE might not be coherent if
a depth-stencil texture is sampled and rendered in the same draw.
