Expose 'debugOutputMute' option to the user interface

[lucoiso]

Description

Add a new check box to the existing option: 'debugOutputMute':

• Enabled if API Validation is checked
• Disabled and set to true if API Validation is unchecked

Changed the on_CaptureCallstacks_toggled to use the boolean (now const) parameter
Created the on_APIValidation_toggled based on on_CaptureCallstacks_toggled

Made these changes after trying to identify an issue that was occurring when I tried to run my application in renderdoc due to an unsupported Vulkan extension, and messages were being suppressed by this option.

Hi, I do not want to expose this option via the UI. The debug output muting when running through RenderDoc is quite deliberate and almost no one should be relying on getting validation messages while running their program from RenderDoc. Users who want to use validation should do so first from their application directly without involving renderdoc to ensure they get accurate information with no false positives or negatives.

It's not clear from your description why you wanted this but it sounds like your application was not properly checking for features before enabling them. This change is not the right solution to that problem.

The API capture option is provided as an option for the extremely rare care where it's necessary for someone who knows exactly why they need it but should not be exposed in the UI where it may be enabled blindly and cause harm.

Ahhh, thx for the feedback

The application itself is a "field of study" and I faced an issue a few days ago while experimenting some changes and tried to identify what was going on using RenderDoc, but the VK_EXT_dynamic_rendering_unused_attachments extension is not supported, and the application was failing to create the logical device only when launched via renderdoc and any hints about what was going on were being suppressed by this option.

Yes a Vulkan application must enumerate available extensions before enabling them. You should not rely on validation to check for this but you should use the Vulkan functions to query for what is available. This will work both for RenderDoc as well as normal drivers which may also not support some extensions.
