Add MoltenVK

[MaddTheSane (C.W. Betts)]

This is a request to add MoltenVK to MacPorts, mainly so that Wine can find and use it.

Thanks for the suggestion! I'll see what I can do.

Do you know how to check whether this has had the desired effect in wine?

[MaddTheSane (C.W. Betts)]

I was able to see it work on my own Wine build by playing ​vkQuake. Make sure you use the 64-bit version: Metal, and thus MotalVK and Vulkan, isn't available for 32-bit apps. A simpler (and less flashy) test can be found here: ​https://github.com/skeeto/vulkan-test

Thanks, I can confirm both of those work for me in 64-bit wine. And I can confirm the 32-bit version of vkQuake doesn't work, and that Metal requires 64-bit. That's sad. If I had known that, I wouldn't have spent so much time making MoltenVK build on 32-bit! Guess I should remove the 32-bit support from it again, since it serves no purpose.
