The presence of a special Gradle property is now used to exclude Vulkan support from the build. By making Vulkan "always on" for local development, we can avoid stale CMake cache issues that arise from toggling the Gradle property. It also lets you avoid adding the flag to Android Studio preferences. This is motivated by testing and does not indicate production readiness. Clients still need to pass VULKAN into the Engine constructor to select the Vulkan backend. To keep APK size down and keep CI fast, we are continuing to exclude Vulkan from official Android builds. After syncing this change, you might need to use `./build.sh -c` to clobber various build caches.
Important note
The scripts found in the subdirectories are intended to be used by Filament's continuous integration environments only. They are not meant to be run directly. Please refer to our build instructions on how to proceed instead.
