The three rows took a restart only because their values were read once at the start.

Game frame rate cap: host/nn_vi.c reads the row at each present (HOS_OPT_FPS_CAP, 53, through the
renderer's existing option callback; no MkwVkHost/MkwVkRenderer change), the vsync thread re-reads
its period each tick, and a cap brought down gives the game back its own limiter (+0xfc), its rate
(+0x2c8) and its step (hos_frame_seconds_bits). The FPS counter's line follows the row. HOS_FPS_MAX
still holds the cap for a run.
Descriptor reuse and Sampler cache: the menu tells vk_draw.cpp the rows at load and on each change
(menu_debug_rows). A draw keeps descriptors only from a build made with the same setting, so turning
reuse on never trusts a build that recorded no slot versions. RX_VK_DESC_REUSE and
RX_VK_SAMPLER_CACHE still hold them for a run.

Checks: tests/test_frame_rate_cap_step.py gains the cap changed in play (up, down, Uncapped, back to
60, and with HOS_FPS_STEP=0); tests/test_menu_env_on.py the Debug rows changed in play.

Moved from NotRexed/Hookshot#2900 (closed when the GitHub account was suspended).

The three rows took a restart only because their values were read once at the start.

- Game frame rate cap: host/nn_vi.c reads the row at each present (HOS_OPT_FPS_CAP, 53, through the
  renderer's existing option callback; no MkwVkHost/MkwVkRenderer change), the vsync thread re-reads
  its period each tick, and a cap brought down gives the game back its own limiter (+0xfc), its rate
  (+0x2c8) and its step (hos_frame_seconds_bits). The FPS counter's line follows the row. HOS_FPS_MAX
  still holds the cap for a run.
- Descriptor reuse and Sampler cache: the menu tells vk_draw.cpp the rows at load and on each change
