Editing Planet.Render.Core.KSADeviceContextEx seems to fix the startup crash

VkPhysicalDeviceDescriptorIndexingFeatures vkPhysicalDeviceDescriptorIndexingFeatures = new VkPhysicalDeviceDescriptorIndexingFeatures
{
    ShaderSampledImageArrayNonUniformIndexing = true,
    DescriptorBindingSampledImageUpdateAfterBind = true,
    ShaderUniformBufferArrayNonUniformIndexing = true,
    DescriptorBindingUniformBufferUpdateAfterBind = false, <-- this on true causes the crash on startup
    ShaderStorageBufferArrayNonUniformIndexing = true,
    DescriptorBindingStorageBufferUpdateAfterBind = true,
    DescriptorBindingPartiallyBound = true,
    RuntimeDescriptorArray = true,
    Next = null
};

Should be fixed in commit "994711d347986e99cb1c8ade8dcd34d1c171683a" which is Revision 2755 in the public changelog.

My Laptop with the GTX 1050 also crashes, not sure what to do but my pc with the RTX 3060 does work with the new public release. (ksa_v2025.11.4.2791)

Tested on 2025.11.4.2791 and confirmed its fixed
