Atm all vkms supports is X/ARGB8888, and even there we throw around random
limits. Add support for more pixel formats is definitely on the list, and
then all the blend/compose stuff needs to be quite drastically
rearchitected.

I think until we're there documenting what's already documented in the
todo list feels like overkill.
