Summary

Functionality added to the WebGPU spec after its first shipment in a browser. Adds a new scope to the uniformity analysis and changes which parts of the language are checked in each to allow subgroup functionality to be considered uniform in more cases.

Motivation

This feature allows subgroup functionality to be considered uniform in more cases representing better quality-of-life for developers and less likelihood of disabling uniformity checks altogether.
