MihawkandClaude 48607e12da PPSSPP: a resolution change from the Quick Menu no longer restarts video and crashes ...

PPSSPP reported its current internal resolution as its maximum geometry, so
any increase made RetroArch restart the video driver (runloop.c compares
max_width/max_height). RetroArch keeps the cached Vulkan device across that
restart and calls neither context_destroy nor context_reset, so PPSSPP's render
thread kept the freed vk_t's interface and called a null function (issue 63:
signal 11, rip=0, [rsp] inside the core). The maximum is now always 10x
(4800x2720, the largest option and the PS5 default profile), so a change is a
geometry update; with hardware rendering RetroArch creates no textures from
the maximum, and default users already had it.

Evidence (python3 tools/evidence.py compare evidence/: 146 replayed, 0 failed):
- evidence/ppsspp-resolution-crash-before: build a2c7800a, tests/pad/
  ppsspp-resolution-change.txt (2880x1632 to 3840x2176 at 30 s): the second
  video_vulkan init, then the reported crash, [rsp]=0x000000040084aabb.
- evidence/ppsspp-resolution-change: build 191ff52c, the same script:
  SET_SYSTEM_AV_INFO 3840x2160 and NotifyDisplayResized 3840x2160 with one
  video_vulkan init; the 45 s screenshot and the 55 s STOP, no crash.
Gates: tools/verify.sh, all five (format, unit 215, build, integration 215,
evidence 141), before the evidence was added.
