Rename render target to color buffer

The Vulkan spec does not use the term 'render target' (except in
extensions that probably borrow it from other APIs). Instead is uses
'attachment', and distinguishes between color, depth, and stencil
attachments. Render target can be confused to just refer to color
attachments, or any buffer that can be rendered to by the graphics
pipeline.

While the term 'color buffer' isn't used much either in the Vulkan spec,
the term 'depth buffer' is. Also, color buffer was the term used in the
OpenGL spec for color framebuffer attachments. Thus its meaning should
be well understood, or at least better than 'render target'.
