Description
Chrome 123 supports the
unrestricted_pointer_parameters
language extension (seeWGSLLanguageFeatures

WGSLLanguageFeatures
ref page for this feature. I'm copying the same structure as I used in #36880, and will deal with merging them as they start to get published.See https://developer.chrome.com/blog/new-in-webgpu-123#unrestricted_pointer_parameters_in_wgsl for the data source.
