Thanks for this explanation.

Makes sense.  I'm partial to removing "sdk-" from %vulkan-sdk-version
and instead use (commit (string-append "sdk-" version)) in sources, but
no strong opinion.

(feedback from other contributors wanted!)

Great, thank you!  I've applied the patches up to and including 'volk'
with minor tweaks and will comment separately on the remaining patch +
changes done.
