We must: the spec explicitly states that API users MUST check if the VkFormat
supports the STORAGE bit for the current tiling mode. If its not flagged, then
the STORAGE usage bit MUST NOT be present when creating the image. If the
storage bit isn't enabled then any VkImageViews created from the VkImage will
not support storage, even if the VkFormat of the VkImageView supports the
STORAGE bit for the particular tiling mode.

Hence, we must flag the STORAGE bit for the VkFormat, even if users can't
directly access all the planes via a single image2D. I can propose that the
spec is changed such that it mentions this, if it makes you feel more
comfortable. But to move forward and enable users to do _actual_ useful things
to multiplane images (and not take chances by flagging usages reported to be
unsupported) we should flag this.
