Bug fixes and Improvements

• Added DXVK_FILTER_DEVICE_UUID environment variable to filter devices by their reported driver UUID. (PR  #4956)
  This may be useful on setups with multiple GPUs of the same model.
• Improved vendor ID override logic for D3D9 and added d3d9.hide{Amd,Intel,Nvidia}Gpu configuration options to improve the out-of-the-box experience in games that refuse to run on Intel GPUs, or only run with significantly reduced graphics features. (PR  #4869)
• Improved WSI backend selection in dxvk-native.
• D3D9 vendor hack features are now only exposed when reporting a GPU vendor that supports the given feature on Windows.
  This may avoid issues in case games make assumptions based on vendor IDs rather than format queries.

• Fixed log spam for unsupported D3D8 render states. ( #4918)
• Fixed log spam for frequent DXGI adapter queries.
