vulkaninfo: Add more descriptive error message
Issue #207 mentions that one of the main problems users
encounter when troubleshooting is a failure to create a
Vulkan instance, and suggests that a statement be added
to this error message that describes the most common
causes of this problem.
This commit adds this additional statement to the current
error message.
