maxjivi05 c300342a29 Update MaliBridge to v0.5.4
v0.5.4 backs the exported memory with AHardwareBuffers on phones without a
dma-buf heap (older Mali such as the G68, G77 and G78) and fixes green and
red textures on the Dimensity 9000 series.

MaliBridge by ASEbrahim

MaliBridge by ASEbrahim: https://github.com/ASEbrahim/MaliBridge (GPL-3.0-or-later with the additional terms in NOTICE here, copied unchanged from the project).

DroidDeck builds MaliBridge from the external/MaliBridge submodule, pinned at 48477fe (v0.5.4) and not modified. Its Vulkan ICD runs inside the Linux runtime and forwards each call over a Unix socket to its server, which runs in the app on the phone's own Vulkan driver. DroidDeck uses it only on a GPU without Adreno's KGSL; an Adreno keeps Turnip.

The DroidDeck side of the bridge (the Setup switches, the server's start and session wiring, the Mali render node stand-in, the compositor's AHardwareBuffer import off Adreno, the Steam web helper layout, the socket wait and the DXVK choice for older Vulkan drivers) is Ahmad Sayed Alsayed Ebrahim's (ASEbrahim) work from https://github.com/ASEbrahim/DroidDeck, kept under their name in this repository's history.

MaliBridge's own credits, in its README, include:

Each keeps its own licence and notice in the submodule (third_party/ and the files that name them).
