 * Push constants is a way to quickly provide a small amount of uniform data to shaders. It should
 * be much quicker than UBOs but a huge limitation is the size of data - spec requires 128 bytes to
 * be available for a push constant range. Hardware vendors may support more, but compared to other
 * means it is still very little (for example 256 bytes).
 *
 * Due to this size requirements we try to use push constants when it fits on the device. If it
 * doesn't fit we fallback to use an uniform buffer.
 *
 * Shader developers are responsible to fine-tune the performance of the shader. One way to do this
 * is to tailor what will be sent as a push constant to keep the push constants within the limits.
