DX Compiler release for April 2021. Contains shader model 6.6, DXIL version 1.6, and many bug fixes and improvements. A new feature called slim pdbs is also introduced which greatly reduces .pdb sizes.

The package includes dxc.exe, dxcompiler.dll, corresponding lib and headers, and dxil.dll.

The new DirectX 12 Agility SDK is required to run shader model 6.6 shaders.

SPIR-V: Per community request the SPIR-V backend of the compiler has been enabled in this release. Please note that Microsoft does not perform testing/verification of the SPIR-V backend.
