The specification says:
VUID-vkAllocateMemory-pAllocateInfo-01713
must pAllocateInfo->allocationSize be less than or equal to
VkPhysicalDeviceMemoryProperties::memoryHeaps[memindex].size where memindex =
VkPhysicalDeviceMemoryProperties::memoryTypes[pAllocateInfo->memoryTypeIndex].heapIndex
as returned by vkGetPhysicalDeviceMemoryProperties for the VkPhysicalDevice that
device was created from.
Though this can be catch by the validation layer, the requested frame size
depends on the use case so it's better to check this restriction by our code.
This patch also makes use of this new function to find memory type index,
and removes the unused function to find memory type index, which, as GstVulkan is
considered unstable, we can do it.

Running element_vkcolorconver test with Vulkan validation layer this error is
raised:
Code 0 : Validation Error: [ VUID-VkMappedMemoryRange-size-01390 ] Object 0:
handle = 0x100000000010, type = VK_OBJECT_TYPE_DEVICE_MEMORY;
| MessageID = 0xdd4e6d8b
| vkFlushMappedMemoryRanges: Size in pMemRanges[0] is 0x4, which is not a
multiple of VkPhysicalDeviceLimits::nonCoherentAtomSize (0x40) and offset +
size (0x0 + 0x4 = 0x4) not equal to the memory size (0xb). The Vulkan spec
states: If size is not equal to VK_WHOLE_SIZE, size must either be a multiple of
VkPhysicalDeviceLimits::nonCoherentAtomSize, or offset plus size must equal the
size of memory
The reason of is that the image size used in the test doesn't comply hardware
restrictions. In order to avoid juggling with image size and hardware
restrictions, this patch proposes to use VK_WHOLE_SIZE macro.

Spec 7.1.3:
If a memory object does not have the VK_MEMORY_PROPERTY_HOST_COHERENT_BIT
property, then vkFlushMappedMemoryRanges must be called in order to guarantee
that writes to the memory object from the host are made available to the host
domain, where they can be further made available to the device domain via a
domain operation. Similarly, vkInvalidateMappedMemoryRanges must be called to
guarantee that writes which are available to the host domain are made visible to
host operations.
