You're right, currently, VKMS only supports non-packed/tiled formats. As
all the formats I plan to add are too not packed or tiled, I haven't
added support to it. But if you want to add it, please do :).

I also found the rotation logic complex when implementing this. I would
appreciate it if it were simplified.

Great explanation, I can see what is the problem here.

I like this, expect my review soon :).

I think you meant that is _not_ working. Yeah, as I already explained,
it was never my plan to add support for packed or tiled formats.
