Vulkan layers: VK_KHR_timeline_semaphore requires VK_KHR_get_physical_device_properties2

When running with Vulkan validation layers enabled, we get two validation warnings:

VUID-VkDeviceCreateInfo-pNext-pNext(ERROR / SPEC): msgNum: -1876993556 - Validation Error: [ VUID-VkDeviceCreateInfo-pNext-pNext ] Object 0: handle = 0x25a6fce5190, type = VK_OBJECT_TYPE_INSTANCE; | MessageID = 0x901f59ec | vkCreateDevice: Includes a pNext pointer (pCreateInfo->pNext) to a VkStructureType (VK_STRUCTURE_TYPE_PHYSICAL_DEVICE_TIMELINE_SEMAPHORE_FEATURES), but its parent extension VK_KHR_timeline_semaphore has not been enabled. ... long message

and then: VUID-vkCreateDevice-ppEnabledExtensionNames-01387(ERROR / SPEC): msgNum: 307460652 - Validation Error: [ VUID-vkCreateDevice-ppEnabledExtensionNames-01387 ] Object 0: handle = 0x21128873450, type = VK_OBJECT_TYPE_INSTANCE; | MessageID = 0x12537a2c | Missing extension required by the device extension VK_KHR_timeline_semaphore: VK_KHR_get_physical_device_properties2. The Vulkan spec states: All required device extensions for each extension in the VkDeviceCreateInfo::ppEnabledExtensionNames list must also be present in that list (https://vulkan.lunarg.com/doc/view/1.3.243.0/windows/1.3-extensions/vkspec.html#VUID-vkCreateDevice-ppEnabledExtensionNames-01387) Objects: 1 [0] 0x21128873450, type: 1, name: NULL

The layer should enable all of VK_KHR_timeline_semaphore dependencies (which includes VK_KHR_get_physical_device_properties2)
