Another small step in reducing the use of API specific calls, where we can use API agnostic calls instead.
Creation, mapping and unmapping of the readback buffers now longer use DX12 specific API calls.
The copying to the readback buffer is still performed using direct DX12 calls because the buffers themselves are still API specific, but in a future PR, that can be solved as well.
