Checklist

I have searched for a similar issue in this repository and did not find one.
I am using an official build obtained from releases or updated one of those builds using its in-app updater.

Describe the Bug

When attempting to boot Like a Dragon: Infinite Wealth, the emulator crashes completely during shader translation. The crash is triggered by an unimplemented Vulkan/SPIR-V instruction when the game attempts to write to the StencilRef attribute. The console outputs a critical "Unreachable code!" exception from the GPU command processor.
Error:-
[Debug] (shadPS4:GpuCommandProcessor) emit_spirv_context_get_set.cpp:258 EmitSetAttribute: Unreachable code! Write attribute StencilRef
[Kernel.Vmm] (pxd::file_callback) memory.cpp:575 sceKernelMemoryPoolCommit: addr = 0x187ff10000, len = 0x20000, type = 0x0, prot = 0x3, flags = 0x0

Reproduction Steps

1)Open shadPS4 version [407d287].
2)Launch Like a Dragon: Infinite Wealth (Title ID: [32137]).
3)Wait for the game to initialize the rendering/graphics engine.
4)Observe the hard crash and check the log file for the StencilRef error.

Expected Behavior

The emulator should either successfully translate the StencilRef attribute to Vulkan/SPIR-V, or safely stub/ignore the instruction without triggering a hard crash, allowing the game engine to attempt to boot further (even if it results in graphical glitches).

Specify OS Version

Windows 11

CPU

Intel core i5 -11400H

GPU

NVIDIA RTX 3050

Amount of RAM in GB

16 GB

This seems to be a common hurdle for modern Dragon Engine titles on shadPS4.

I'm reporting this to help track unimplemented SPIR-V instructions for higher-end PS4 titles.
