Point vertex processing optimization

Instead of packing each point in a triangle primitive,
tightly pack all point vertices and write them out 3
at a time in the output primitive. This should be
roughly twice as fast. Explanation:

Currently:
Vertices: 0 0 0 1 1 1 2 2 2 ...
Processing:
1) 0 0 0 1
2) 0 (cache hit)
3) 0 (cache hit)
2) 1 (cache hit)
3) 1 (cache hit)
4) 1 (cache hit)
5) 2 2 2 3
...
-> We processed 8 vertices to get points 0 1 2 3

New way:
1) 0 1 2 3 -> We processed 4 vertices to get points 0 1 2 3
2) 4 5 6 7

Will affect these tests once vertexPipelineStoresAndAtomics
is enabled:
dEQP-VK.glsl.atomic_operations.*

Note that these tests are affected because they wrongly assume
vertices won't be processed more than once. These tests should
still get fixed.
