Extension Methods

CreateArgumentEncoder(IMTLDevice, MTLArgumentDescriptor[])	Creates an encoder for the specified array of arguments.
CreateBuffer<T>(IMTLDevice, T[], MTLResourceOptions)	Creates and returns a new buffer with a copy of the specified data.
CreateBufferNoCopy<T>(IMTLDevice, T[], MTLResourceOptions, MTLDeallocator)	Creates and returns a new buffer that is wrapped around the specified data, and runs an optional deallocator when the memory is deallocated.
