Fixes/improvements based on feature/render-binding-resource (#511)

* Dx12 rendering works in test framework.

* Turn on dx12 render tests.

* Split out functions for construction or Renderer types into ShaderRendererUtil. Removed the serialization of buffers code into test-render

* Improvements in documentation and typename in BindingState types.

RegisterSet -> CompactBindIndexSlice
RegisterList -> BindIndexSlice
RegisterDesc -> ShaderBindSet

* Fix debug build break.
