Description
After cargo upgrade-ing wgpu-core from 0.12.0 to 0.12.2, and wgpu-hal from 0.12.0 to 0.12.4, a Metal surface with usage flags TextureUsages::RENDER_ATTACHMENT | TextureUsages::COPY_DST could not be configured anymore (macOS 11.6.2) due to a validation mismatch. This PR adds the COPY_DST flag to Metal's surface capabilities so validation now passes for this particular usage flag. See "Discussion" below.

Testing
The simplest way to test is to add a wgpu::TextureUsages::COPY_DST usage flag to hello_triangle example's surface configuration. Prior to this change (and given you're on macOS), you'll get a panic Error in Surface::configure: requested usage is not supported. This change fixes the panic.

Discussion
I see there's a TODO for possibly exposing more flags, but I'm not knowledgeable enough to add them without discussing first. For example, I feel DEPTH_STENCIL_WRITE would also work? I'm happy to test out any additional changes and update the PR.

I checked, and it seems that the rest of the code would handle this fine.
