cl_khr_command_buffer sync-point capacity (#1286)

* cl_khr_command_buffer sync-point capacity

Document the behaviour when command-buffer command capacity
is reached, and track under "Issues" the possible future
use-cases for being able to optimize based on the capacity
of a command-buffer.

Closes #844

* Refine out-of-order command-buffer enqueue wording

* Update api/cl_khr_command_buffer.asciidoc

+Device-side {cl_sync_point_khr_TYPE} synchronization-points can be used within
+command-buffers to define command dependencies. This allows the commands of a
+command-buffer to execute out-of-order on a single <<compatible, compatible>>
+command-queue. The command-buffer itself has no inherent in-order/out-of-order
+property, this ordering is inferred from the command-queue used on command
+recording. {clEnqueueCommandBufferKHR} submissions to an out-of-order queue
+have the same execution semantics are other operations enqueued to an
+out-of-order queue, such as {clEnqueueFillBuffer}, where execution between
+enqueued operations may happen concurrently unless dependencies between the
+operations are expressed with events.
+
+The {cl_sync_point_khr_TYPE} type is defined as a `cl_uint`, giving a hard
+upper limit on the number of commands a command-buffer can hold as
+{CL_UINT_MAX}, at which point {CL_OUT_OF_RESOURCES} will be returned. However,
+it is likely an implementation will reach capacity before this threshold is
+hit.
+
+There are no gurantees made around the values of sync-points returned from
+adding commands to a command-buffer. Any semantics that a could be inferred
+from the sync-point values returned is implementation defined.
