Revert "Vulkan:Include precision qualifier in GLSL"

This reverts commit 93e72f5f0eb80b89334ea8fe577b32901a00b5fb.

Reason for revert: This is having a negative impact on gfxbench
Manhattan 3.1 tests (20-30%) with only a minor improvement (~4%) in TRex offscreen. Pulling out for now and need to re-evaluate best
solution here.

Original change's description:
> Vulkan:Include precision qualifier in GLSL
> 
> With this initial implementation, it's possible to get precision
> qualifier mis-matches in the generated GLSL 4.50. According to the
> spec this is allowed. From GLSLangSpec 4.50 section 4.7 "Precision and
> Precision Qualifiers":
> 
> For the purposes of determining if an output from one shader stage
> matches an input of the next stage, the precision qualifier need not
> match.
> 
> However, when converted to SPIR-V and run through the shader validation
> any mismatches will cause shader validation errors. Initially just
> ignoring those errors with this commit.

ANGLE - Almost Native Graphics Layer Engine

The goal of ANGLE is to allow users of multiple operating systems to seamlessly run WebGL and other OpenGL ES content by translating OpenGL ES API calls to one of the hardware-supported APIs available for that platform. ANGLE currently provides translation from OpenGL ES 2.0, 3.0 and 3.1 to Vulkan, desktop OpenGL, OpenGL ES, Direct3D 9, and Direct3D 11. Future plans include ES 3.2, translation to Metal and MacOS, Chrome OS, and Fuchsia support.

ANGLE v1.0.772 was certified compliant by passing the ES 2.0.3 conformance tests in October 2011. With the Vulkan backend, ANGLE 2.1.0.d46e2fb1e341 was certified compliant to ES 2.0 in Nov 2019, and ANGLE 2.1.0.f18ff947360d to ES 3.0 in Feb 2020. ANGLE also provides an implementation of the EGL 1.4 specification.

ANGLE is used as the default WebGL backend for both Google Chrome and Mozilla Firefox on Windows platforms. Chrome uses ANGLE for all graphics rendering on Windows, including the accelerated Canvas2D implementation and the Native Client sandbox environment.

Portions of the ANGLE shader compiler are used as a shader validator and translator by WebGL implementations across multiple platforms. It is used on Mac OS X, Linux, and in mobile variants of the browsers. Having one shader validator helps to ensure that a consistent set of GLSL ES shaders are accepted across browsers and platforms. The shader translator can be used to translate shaders to other shading languages, and to optionally apply shader modifications to work around bugs or quirks in the native graphics drivers. The translator targets Desktop GLSL, Vulkan GLSL, Direct3D HLSL, and even ESSL for native GLES2 platforms.
