The code used to update the output ID to index table, but that left stale entries in the input buffer set. When particles died, one of the buffers had -1 for the dead IDs, but the other still had the old execution indexes. This could lead to direct reads returning bogus data, instead of reporting that the ID is no longer in use. The solution is to clear the ID table at the beginning of the tick, and let the UpdateID() function fill in the IDs which are still in use.
This problem didn't occur on GPU, where the tables were already being cleared.

The UpdateID CPU kernel didn't take into account the instance start offset, so the spawn step mapped new IDs to indices starting at 0. If the emitter already contained particles, this caused the ID to index mapping to be incorrect in the frame when the spawn happened, which caused further problems if another emitter tried to read the particles in that frame.

* added functions which can retrieve the IDs of the particles spawned in the last tick
* added missing barriers on source buffers when reading from another emitter
* fixed bug when more than one DI function was used in a module (bad alignment on the elements of the array of attribute indices)
Persistent IDs:
* replaced ClearUAV with a custom shader, so we can set sane barriers instead of the stuff that ClearUAV() forces. Dev-Rendering replaced ClearUAV() with a better API, but I didn't want to wait for that merge.
* grouped together all the ID buffer clears before the simulation dispatches, and all the free ID list updates after rendering, so they can overlap and to avoid stalls
Barriers:
* fixed a bogus compute to graphics transition on the ID to index buffer
* when running multiple ticks, only the outputs of the final tick are transitioned to graphics
* automatic CS cache flushes are disabled once before running all the ticks and enabled at the end, instead of doing it for each tick

- Read ByteCode directly if unalgned loads are supported to condense 3 opts into 1 when reading a uint16
- Pre-calculate instance loops for VECTOR_WIDTH_FLOATS to avoid each vector op having to round / divide instance counts
- Added runtime optimization of the VM script, this currently boils down to a function call per VM invoke + storing the data required
- Use vm.OptimizeVMByteCode to enable optimized code generation
- Use vm.UseOptimizedVMByteCode to enable running optimized code rather the traditional byte code

- VM is now directly fed a set of pre generated register tables from the datasets.
- Split the monolithic register table in the VM up so there are explicit I/O and temp register tables the script indexes into directly.
- Avoids some recreation of expensve objects in favour of manual reset calls.
- Re-wrote Oupt kernel to be more explicit. Going via templated handler in this case didn't get us any code reuse and just obfuscated it's workings.
Saves ~10-25us of overhead per VM involcation which soon adds up.
Saves ~1-2us inside each VM exec itself.
