Description of the new feature/enhancement

Make use of features described in https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/win32/direct3ddxgi/dxgi-1-3-improvements, https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/win32/direct3ddxgi/dxgi-1-4-improvements, https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/win32/direct3ddxgi/dxgi-1-5-improvements, and https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/win32/direct3ddxgi/dxgi-1-6-improvements. Probably should bug the DXGI team to consolidate all the features into one header instead needing to import a bunch.

Proposed technical implementation details (optional)

Just read the docs and make improvements as described to boost efficiency of the renderer. Related: https://github.com/microsoft/terminal/issues/6436 and https://github.com/microsoft/terminal/pull/6435, which starts the process.
