517d17b4b3 fix #426: extract solid-colour (NO_POS_UVS) faces; skip untextured subsets only on building shells and cells like retail
The Holtburg windmill axle (GfxObj 0x010010CE, 8 polygons, all
Stippling.NoPos + SurfaceType.Base1Solid) extracted to a 0-vertex mesh.
NoPos ("NO_POS_UVS", acclient.h:7380-7388) means "this side has no
texture coordinates" — true of every solid-colour polygon, since
nothing samples them — not "there is no positive face". Extraction read
it as the latter and dropped the polygon entirely, client-wide, for
every untextured polygon on every object.

Retail's D3DPolyRender::DrawMesh (@0x0059d4a0, named-retail decomp
~line 426048) draws an untextured subset on an ordinary object exactly
like a textured one; the only retail cases that skip an untextured
subset are a building shell (RenderDeviceD3D::DrawBuilding @0x0059f2a0
sets ObjBuildingOrBuildingPart=1) or an EnvCell interior
(RenderDeviceD3D::DrawEnvCell @0x0059f170, arg4=1). The #119
investigation's "retail's skipNoTexture never draws them either"
conclusion was itself wrong as a general rule.

- MeshExtractor.PrepareGfxObjMeshData / GfxObjMesh.Build: emit the
  positive side whenever PosSurface is a valid index, regardless of
  NoPos; the existing UV-index-0 fallback already produces zero
  texcoords for a NoPos polygon with no UVs on the wire.
- RetailUntexturedSurfacePolicy.IsUntextured(SurfaceType): the one
  place that answers "is this surface textured"
  ((type & (Base1Image|Base1ClipMap)) == 0), replacing the old
  `isSolid = NoPos || Base1Solid` (which also mis-classified a NEG-side
  batch by the POS-side's NoPos flag).
- RetailUntexturedSubsetPolicy.Draws(isBuildingShell, isUntextured):
  the shared draw-time gate wired into WbDrawDispatcher.ClassifyBatches,
  .PackedOracle.ClassifyPackedBatches, and
  .DirectionalShadows.AddDirectionalShadowBatches — one predicate so the
  three walks cannot drift (Campaign VM VM6 lesson).
- CellMesh.cs / MeshExtractor.PrepareCellStructMeshData deliberately
  KEEP their NoPos-gated skip for cell-wall geometry — retail's
  DrawEnvCell really does skip untextured subsets there; register row
  AP-234 documents the NoPos-vs-Surface.Type approximation.
- PakFormat.CurrentBakeToolVersion 4->5 (LauncherInstallRecordStore in
  lockstep): a pak baked by an older tool is missing every untextured
  face. No bake was run as part of this commit.

Also fixed: WorldBuilder's own upstream ObjectMeshManager.cs has the
identical NoPos bug (ObjectMeshManager.cs:959,984) — our port had
faithfully carried it over, and our own conformance test
(Build_NoPosFlag_OnlyEmitsNegSide) asserted the bug as correct WB
conformance. Renamed/reworded to Build_NoPosFlag_EmitsBothPosAndNegSide
with a citation for why retail decomp overrides WB here.

Issue119UpNullGfxObjDumpTests re-run against the installed DAT:
#119's own two objects (0x010002B4 9/9 polys, 0x010008A8 1/1 poly) now
gate DRAWS on every polygon instead of extracting to nothing.

fccba8390d refactor(render): one group-creation seam, required foliage key field, first-frame wind snap (Campaign VM VM6 review 3)
Narrow re-review of a82959f1: APPROVE, with follow-ups. All items landed.

N2 (structural): (a) extracted the ONE shared InstanceGroup-from-key
construction seam, WbDrawDispatcher.CreateGroupFromKey(key, registration,
frame) — before this there were two near-identical `new InstanceGroup
{ ... }` initializers (GetOrCreateInstanceGroup and GetOrCreatePackedGroup)
that had already drifted once (the round-2 F1 bug). Both routes call it now;
CreateGroupFromKey's own `new()` is the only production InstanceGroup
construction site repo-wide, same precedent as AppendPackedInstance. (b)
GroupKey.FoliageFlags lost its `= 0u` default and moved before CullMode in
the declaration (CullMode keeps its default, C# requires optional params to
trail required ones), so a `new GroupKey(...)` that omits it is a compile
error. Fixed every real construction site the reorder/requirement touched:
the 2 production sites, ToKey (a reconstruction from InstanceGroup the
review didn't count but the reorder broke), and 5 test sites (one more than
the review's "4" — InstanceGroupClearTests had a second, implicit
target-typed `MakeKey` factory the original count missed). Verified by a
full solution build.

N1: added CreateGroupFromKey_CopiesFoliageFlagsFromTheKey
(InstanceGroupClearTests) — a key carrying FoliageFlags 0x2 in, the created
group's FoliageFlags 0x2 out. That test plus N2b's required field are what
actually guard the round-2 F1 blocker; reworded PackedDispatcherOracleTests'
existing test comment to say what IT proves (the classification-to-
BuildIndirectArrays-to-BatchData.flags path), not that it guards the
classifier.

N3: corrected the plan's round-2 paragraph — folding FoliageFlags into the
G2/G3 digest is correct and symmetric, but CompareClassifiedOutput only
runs from RenderScenePViewFrameProductController.BuildAndCompare, which has
no production caller anywhere in src/AcDream.App/, and both of
RenderScenePViewFrameProductTests's own callers construct the controller
without the optional dispatcher argument — so the fold catches nothing
until that oracle is wired to an actual caller.

N4: the plan's F6 note now names both classification caches — the classic
route's EntityClassificationCache.EntityCacheEntry (self-heals per entity
on its own next eviction) and the packed route's
PackedProjectionClassificationEntry/PackedClassifiedBatch.Key
(PackedProjectionClassificationCache.BeginFrame clears its entire cache in
one shot on a RenderSceneGeneration change) — and notes neither mechanism
is keyed to a pack switch specifically.

N5: deleted the now-unused single-generic ComputeEntityHasCutoutSubset<T>
overload; its 4 test call sites now use the two-generic, zero-alloc
overload with an unused int context and a static (_, value) => value
lambda, so there is exactly one ComputeEntityHasCutoutSubset to keep
correct.

A6 (reviewer-filed): ResolveFoliageWind's _windMean/_windGust started at 0
and always eased toward the weather target by clock delta, with no
distinction for a graph's first-ever advance. A pinned clock
(ACDREAM_SKY_PHASE_SECONDS, the offline pixel gate's determinism pin) never
advances between calls, so the wind reached only whatever fraction the
first (1-second-clamped) step produced and sat there forever; live, the
first 10 s after a graph is constructed (pack selection / login) spun up
from dead calm even though the weather already IS what it is. Fixed at the
root: the first advance (_windFrameSerial == -1, the constructor sentinel)
now snaps _windMean/_windGust straight to the target; every later advance
eases over WeatherSystem.TransitionSeconds exactly as before. Added a
SetWindClockSecondsOverrideForTesting seam (_windClockSecondsOverride is no
longer readonly) so a hermetic test can advance the pinned clock by an
exact amount between two resolves without a real-time Thread.Sleep; two new
tests prove the first-advance snap is exact and a second advance still
eases at the normal rate. The three existing indoor/wind-disabled/amplitude
gate tests pass unchanged.

Verify: Release build 0 warnings/0 errors. App hermetic-lane filter
6,046/0 failed. Core.Tests 4,695/0 failed. Full hermetic-filtered solution:
15,274/0 failed across 15 projects.

a82959f1b7 fix(render): production packed classifier carries the foliage flags; deferred-alpha replay keeps them (Campaign VM VM6 review 2)
Narrow re-review of 43e3abed found every A1-A5/A7/A8 item resolved but
one new blocker in the production packed classifier.

F1 (BLOCKER): RetailPViewPassExecutor.DrawPackedProductionRoute — the
route production world geometry actually draws from — never computed
FoliageFlags at all. WbDrawDispatcher.PackedOracle.cs's
ClassifyPackedBatches built its GroupKey with the field defaulting to
0u, and GetOrCreatePackedGroup never copied it onto the created
InstanceGroup, so production BatchData.flags bits 1/2 were always zero
for every scenery entity: the world geometry never swayed even though
the independently-classified shadow caster did, so shadows visibly
swayed under rigid trees. Both classifier call sites now compute
FoliageFlags via the identical FoliageWindClassification.Classify call
and entity-scoped HasCutoutSubset OR the classic (non-packed) path
uses, and GetOrCreatePackedGroup copies it exactly like
GetOrCreateInstanceGroup always has. The G2/G3 classified-output
digest (AddOpaqueSubmissionGroup/BuildTransparentSubmissionDigest) now
also folds GroupKey.FoliageFlags into its hash — present in the key
since round 1 but never actually read by either digest function, so a
content-level (not just group-count-level) classic-vs-packed
divergence is now caught.

F2 (medium): the delayed-alpha replay path (PrepareDeferredAlphaDraws)
hardcoded Flags = 1, dropping bits 1/2 for any group replayed through
it — a trunk instance promoted into the alpha-blend group mid-fade
(the #188 translucency-promotion case) would stop swaying for the
duration of its fade. Now 1u | key.FoliageFlags.

F3 (nit): ComputeEntityHasCutoutSubset's three call sites (classic,
caster, and the newly-fixed packed classifier) each allocated a
closure over _meshAdapter per Setup entity per frame. A new
context-taking overload passes the mesh adapter as an explicit
argument to a static lambda instead, letting the compiler cache one
delegate for the method's lifetime rather than allocating fresh ones.

A3 test gap: WbDrawDispatcher.BindDirectionalShadowReceiver is now
internal so DirectionalShadowGpuTests can drive it directly with a
bare RecordingGpuDevice pass encoder, proving it emits
UniformAtmosphericFrame with the exact buffer/offset/size a
DirectionalShadowFrameBinding carries — paired with the existing test
proving that binding carries the caster's real bind forward untouched.

F1's missing test: PackedDispatcherOracleTests chains
FoliageWindClassification.Classify (called with the packed
classifier's exact argument shape) for a real 0x8... scenery entity id
through BuildIndirectArrays — the same shared, already-tested
production step both classic and packed group lists feed into BatchData —
proving the resulting flags word carries bit 0x2. Driving
ClassifyPackedBatches/GetOrCreatePackedGroup directly was not a "cheap
test": both are private instance methods reachable only through the
full RetailPViewPassExecutor route, which needs a real IGpuDevice,
world-pass scope, mesh manager, and compiled pipelines to construct —
no test anywhere in the App test project stands one up.

Nits: F4 corrects foliage_wind.glsl's header comment from "bit 31" to
the top-nibble test; F5 documents at the receiver bind site that the
caster's own AtmosphericFrameBufferBinding has its seven ABI v1
members zero/Identity by construction (only the two v2 wind members
are valid) — safe today because mesh_atmospheric.vert reads that
binding solely for wind displacement, flagged as a footgun for a
future v1-reading addition to that shader; F6 notes in the plan
(rather than fixes) that EntityCacheEntry does not proactively
invalidate when FoliageWindExclusions changes on a pack switch —
harmless with the pack off, self-heals on the entry's next natural
eviction.

foliage_wind.glsl's F4 comment-only change updated the SPIR-V
manifest's source hashes for the five includers (mesh_atmospheric.vert
+ four directional_shadow_world_* casters); the compiled .spv bytes
are byte-identical since comments do not affect bytecode.

Verify: Release build 0 warnings/0 errors. App hermetic-lane filter
6,043/0 failed. Core.Tests 4,695/0 failed. RenderPackValidator 30/30.
Full hermetic-filtered solution: 15,271/0 failed across 15 projects.

e6a87679b7 fix(render): read TransparentPartHook opacity by the real part ordinal, not 0

The user reported crystal shards hovering in the air above every Bind
Stone on Coldeve (setup 0x020010AC) that do not exist in the retail
client. The DAT truth, extracted with the new tools/SetupInspect probe:
the model authors SEVEN parts - pedestal, spinning column, inner
crystal, and four shard meshes parked in a static ring at Z=3.0 in the
placement frame and every frame of the idle cycle - and frame 0 of that
idle cycle fires four TransparentPartHooks (parts 3-6, start=end=1.0)
each loop. Retail hides the shards through those hooks; the model
simply ships with permanently-hooked-invisible parts.

acdream's hook chain was intact end to end - the static-animating
workset captures the hooks (RetailStaticAnimatingObjectScheduler ->
AnimationHookFrameQueue -> TranslucencyHookSink), and
TranslucencyFadeManager committed translucency 1.0 for parts 3-6 -
but BOTH dispatchers' bare-GfxObj branch read the fade with a
hard-coded part index 0 under a false #188-era assumption ("a bare
GfxObj entity has exactly one part"). Every live server object is a
FLATTENED multi-part entity in exactly that branch: SetupMesh.Flatten
emits one bare-GfxObj MeshRef per Setup.Parts[i], order preserved,
AnimPartChanges replacing in place - so the MeshRef ordinal IS the
retail CPartArray ordinal TransparentPartHook.PartIndex addresses.
The committed invisibility for parts 3-6 was never consulted and the
shards drew forever. Proof the ordinal was trustworthy all along:
click-selection in the same loops already publishes it as the part
identity (Slice 4 picking runs on it in production).

Fix: both the legacy classifier and the packed oracle now pass the
per-part ordinal (partIdx / packedPart.PartIndex) to the translucency
lookup. Single-part objects still read index 0; the #188 door fades
are unchanged; the Setup-expanded branch already indexed correctly.
Any other object hiding authored parts via idle-loop hooks gets its
retail appearance from the same change.

tools/SetupInspect is the new reusable DAT probe that cracked this:
dumps a Setup's parts, parent indices, GfxObj vertex bounds, placement
frames, motion-table default cycle, sampled animation frames, and all
animation hooks.

Closes task #32's code side; the connected visual gate (shards gone at
the Bind Stone, base crystals and spin retained) is the acceptance.
App Release suite 3,968 / 3 skips.

565c351f93 feat(render): Campaign V slice V4t-2 — the world texture stack crosses to GpuTextureSlot
The rest of V4t. The composite, particle and shared-atlas texture paths now
hand out the device's GpuTextureSlot instead of a raw 64-bit
ARB_bindless_texture handle, and GroupKey, CachedBatch and ObjectRenderBatch
carry that slot. WbDrawDispatcher, EnvCellRenderer and ParticleRenderer retire
their interim GlBindlessHandleTable instances and share the device's one
table, exactly as V4t-1 did for terrain. Nothing about world submission
changes otherwise: these three renderers are still raw GL, still bind binding
9 themselves, and still draw the same geometry in the same order.

**What produces a slot now.** CompositeTextureArrayCache's GL backend interns
each array's handle when it makes it resident and retires the entry when it
makes it non-resident, so the pair is created and destroyed together and the
cache above it never learns a device exists — the fake backend its tests use
mints a stand-in slot. TextureCache.AcquireParticleTexture does the same for
the one-layer particle arrays it owns, including on its rollback path.
ObjectMeshManager registers each shared atlas's wrap/clamp handles at batch
upload; registration is idempotent by handle, so the many batches sharing an
atlas share its entry.

**Slot release is stricter than what it replaces, not looser.** The interim
tables never released anything — the class comment said so — and they grew
without bound. The device's table has a fixed 16,384-slot capacity, so an
unreleased entry is now a leak with an end. Every producer therefore retires
its entry: the composite backend at MakeNonResident, the particle backend at
MakeNonResident, and ObjectMeshManager when a retiring atlas's PHYSICAL
retirement completes — the point at which its handles are already non-resident
and its texture already deleted. That last one needs the handles snapshotted
at eviction, because ManagedGLTextureArray.Dispose zeroes its own copies as
its first act. Teardown deliberately does not release: the device is being torn
down alongside its callers, so there is nothing left to recycle a slot into,
and deferring work through a possibly-disposed retirement queue would turn a
clean shutdown into a throw.

**The default value became load-bearing, and that is the one real hazard here.**
BindlessTextureLocation could say "not resolved" with handle 0, because no
texture has handle 0. A slot index has no spare value — default(GpuTextureSlot)
is real slot 0 — so a positional record would have turned every
budget-rejected or still-uploading composite into a silent read of whichever
texture registered first. That is the magenta-placeholder failure shape one
layer down. The type is now a struct storing the slot one-based, so default IS
Unresolved, with a test pinning both halves: default is unresolved, and a
location naming slot 0 is resolved and distinguishable from it. Elsewhere the
sentinel is already exact — GpuTextureSlot.Unassigned is 0xFFFFFFFF, which is
common.glsl's ACDREAM_TEXTURE_NONE — so the classify path's "no texture yet"
test and the particle billboard's untextured branch are unchanged in meaning.

**GroupKey ordering is preserved because the key never ordered anything.**
Handle→slot is a bijection (the device interns one slot per resident handle),
so the same (entity, batch) pairs bucket together as before. The key reaches
equality, hashing and the scene-digest fingerprints — never a comparator:
opaque and translucent groups sort by cull mode then camera distance, the
delayed-alpha path by viewer distance then submission ordinal, and group
enumeration follows the persistent dictionary's insertion order, which a
changed hash does not disturb. The digests hash the slot index where they
hashed the handle; both sides of the render-shadow comparison compute them the
same way, so the value changing is invisible to it. Read
CompareOpaqueSubmissionOrder, CompareTransparentSubmissionOrder and
AlphaFingerprintComparer before doubting this — sort-order drift is a
pixel-visible regression class this project has hit, and it is why the check
was made before the retype rather than after.

**One visibility change, forced rather than chosen.** BindlessTextureLocation
was public and now holds an internal contract type, so it is internal;
ObjectRenderBatch.TextureSlot is internal on an otherwise public class for the
same reason. Nothing outside this assembly and its InternalsVisibleTo test
assemblies named either.

**SkyRenderer keeps its interim table**, and the report should say why: the
sky's textures are minted by SkyRenderer itself from TextureCache's raw GL
texture names, which this slice does not retype, so it would be the one
consumer registering handles it produced — a different shape from the world
stack. The offline gate also masks the sky band, so the one automated
instrument here cannot see a sky regression. V4f owns that renderer.

**Gates.** GL offline pixel gate vs cb2a70b8, measured twice: 31 and 22
differing pixels of 563,200 (5.50e-05, 3.91e-05). The first is above the
plan's documented 15-23 px band, so a control was measured rather than
assumed: two same-commit captures at this tree differ by 19 px, and — the
decisive number — a capture at V4t-1 and a capture at this commit differ by
9 px, fewer than the same-commit control. Maximum channel delta is 41-52 in
every pair including the controls, i.e. the differing pixels are drawn from
one flickering population, not from moved geometry. tools/run-repeat-connected-gate.ps1
-Runs 3: 3/3 RENDERED on both the desktop witness and the client capture. One
Vulkan composition-host run with VK_LAYER_KHRONOS_validation proven inserted
by the loader: zero errors, zero warnings, converged ownership ledger. App
tests 4,077 / 3 skips and the complete Release suite 9,140 / 5 — both the
4,075 and 9,138 baselines plus the two tests added here.

9aaf97e785 Revert "Campaign V slice V4a" - it lost world multisampling
This reverts ceec3bc4. Two independent reasons, either sufficient.

The rendering regression. The slice deleted TextRenderGlStateScope, which
saved GL_MULTISAMPLE and GL_SAMPLE_ALPHA_TO_COVERAGE on entry, disabled them
for the text pass, and restored them on exit (TextRenderGlStateScope.cs:111-112
and 153-154 at the parent commit). Its replacement bakes that state into the
text pipeline but nothing restores it, and GlGpuPassEncoder.Dispose does not
either. Every world renderer is still raw GL at this point in the campaign, so
from the first UI frame onward the world drew with multisampling disabled.

The offline pixel gate caught it: 1,791 of 563,200 compared pixels differed,
0.318% against a 0.001 threshold. The commit message attributed this to
wall-clock-driven ambient animation shifting phase, and committed through the
failure. That explanation does not survive its own control: capturing twice at
the reverted-to commit differs by 19 pixels and twice at the slice's own commit
by 8, while base-versus-head differs by 1,791 - a 224x gap that no shared-noise
source explains. An amplified difference image settles it visually: the changed
pixels are the silhouette edges of every tree, building and rock, with terrain
interiors, water and the entire UI untouched. That is the signature of losing
edge antialiasing, not of animated sprites.

This is the exact failure mode two existing memory notes already warn about -
a mid-frame renderer must set every GL state it uses rather than inherit it,
and issue #52's lesson that a rendering migration must audit per-pass GL state
before declaring itself done.

The scope. The brief was three small leaf renderers plus additive frame-
lifecycle wiring, roughly ten files. The commit changed 334 files with 3,665
insertions and 3,845 deletions, including 323 public-to-internal visibility
conversions across the App assembly, 55 test files, two retired conformance
tests, and a self-described temporary escape hatch for bridging raw-GL viewport
textures. Even without the regression, that is not separable into the part
worth keeping and the part worth dropping.

Reverting rather than patching because the good work here - the RHI frame
lifecycle wiring and a genuine render-state-cache staleness fix - is small
enough to redo cleanly against a tightened spec, while untangling it from 300+
files of unrelated churn is not.

Post-revert: Release build clean, App suite back to 3,843 passed / 3 skipped,
offline pixel gate passing at 19 differing pixels.

ceec3bc440 feat(render): Campaign V slice V4a - port TextRenderer/BitmapFont/DebugLineRenderer/TextureCache onto IGpuDevice
TextRenderer, BitmapFont, DebugLineRenderer, and TextureCache's UI-texture
upload path (GetOrUploadRenderSurface/UploadRgba8) now issue every draw and
resource creation through the pinned IGpuDevice/IGpuFrame/IGpuPassEncoder
RHI contract instead of raw GL. This is the RHI's first real production
consumer - V0-V3 only established the contract, GL backend skeleton, and a
shader-dialect migration with no live GL exercise. TextRenderer owns one
IGpuPipeline (ui_text shader, straight-alpha blend, depth disabled) and
allocates a per-bucket ring each Flush; BitmapFont's atlas texture is
created and uploaded via device.CreateTexture/.Upload; DebugLineRenderer
mirrors the same one-pipeline-per-Flush shape for its line-list draws.
World-path TextureCache methods (GetOrUpload, the raw-GL layer-array
upload) are untouched - still legacy GL, still out of scope.

Frame lifecycle: GpuDeviceFrameLifetime (RenderFrameOrchestrator.cs) wraps
IGpuDevice.BeginFrame()/IGpuFrame.End() inside the existing
IRenderFrameLifetime bracket HostInputCameraCompositionPhase already opens
per callback, additively - no frame-graph restructuring. Ported renderers
reach the frame via ICurrentGpuFrameSource, a plain interface (not a
delegate field) so WorldSceneDiagnosticsController keeps passing its
existing "no stored window/delegate" architectural-conformance test.

Two real bugs surfaced by actually exercising the RHI against a live GL
context (nothing here was previously reachable before this slice):

- GlGpuDevice.BeginFrame() now resets the render-state cache every frame.
  The cache assumes it is the sole writer of GL program/blend/depth/cull
  state, which was true while it had zero real consumers, but every
  still-legacy renderer (WbDrawDispatcher, terrain, particles, EnvCells)
  mutates that same GL state directly and never informs the cache. Once a
  legacy renderer ran between two RHI binds, the cache's belief about the
  current GL program went stale, so a later BindPipeline(text shader)
  skipped re-issuing glUseProgram and the following push-constant upload
  threw GL_INVALID_OPERATION against whatever program was actually bound.
  Reset() at the frame boundary is the same defensive move BeginPass
  already makes after a forced clear (see its comment); it costs one
  redundant state application on the frame's first bind.
- GL_MULTISAMPLE has no representation in the pinned contract. Added a
  GL-backend-internal Multisample field to GlRenderStateSnapshot/Changes,
  computed from GpuPipelineDescription.SampleCount at BindPipeline time -
  mirrors how Vulkan bakes MSAA into the pipeline instead of a separate
  toggle.

Collateral, scoped to keep the port real rather than a stub:

- GpuTextureSlot (Unassigned = uint.MaxValue, NOT 0) now flows through
  every consumer of TextureCache.GetOrUploadRenderSurface/UploadRgba8 and
  TextRenderer.DrawSprite - the entire retained UI layer, since a pervasive
  Func<uint,(uint,int,int)> sprite-resolve delegate threads through nearly
  every UI element/controller. Every prior `== 0` / `!= 0` "no texture"
  check became `.IsAssigned` / `!.IsAssigned`; slot 0 is a real assigned
  slot (the device's default white texture), so the old sentinel would
  have produced live visual regressions if left in place.
- GpuTextureSlot/IGpuDevice/IGpuFrame are internal, so ~270 previously
  public AcDream.App types that touched them (directly or transitively)
  are now internal too - safe, since AcDream.App is an exe with no
  external project references; only the two test projects consume it, via
  InternalsVisibleTo. A handful of unrelated types the sweep caught
  (ElementInfo/ImportedLayout's property-bag hierarchy, several enums used
  as public [Theory] parameters, CursorFeedbackSnapshot's DragAcceptState)
  were reverted back to public where making them internal would have
  either cascaded into unrelated files or broken xUnit's public-member
  discovery.
- ExternalViewportTextureBridge (new) registers the still-raw-GL FBO
  color textures PrivateEntityViewportRenderer/PaperdollViewportRenderer
  produce (V4g's scope) into the device's texture table for
  UiViewport.TextureHandle, via a temporary
  GlGpuDevice.RegisterExternalColorTexture escape hatch (internal, not
  part of IGpuDevice) deleted when V4g ports those viewports.
- TextRenderGlStateScope.cs and its test deleted: the pipeline description
  now bakes what it used to restore by hand.
- ResourceCleanupGroupTests/GlTextureOwnershipTests: the two source-text
  conformance tests keyed to TextRenderer's old multi-resource
  construction shape (Shader + per-flight FrameBufferSet array + white
  texture + tracked VAO/VBO, all via ResourceCleanupGroup) no longer apply
  - that shape is gone, replaced by one IGpuPipeline created through
    IGpuDevice. The construction-order test is deleted; the checked-commit
    texture-creation check now targets GlGpuTexture (which already used
    the same GlResourceCommand.CreateName primitive before this slice).

Gates:
- dotnet build -c Release: 0 warnings, 0 errors (AcDream.App has
  TreatWarningsAsErrors).
- dotnet test tests/AcDream.App.Tests -c Release: 3,840 passed / 3
  skipped (was 3,843/3 entering this slice - net 3 fewer tests:
  TextRendererFailureSafetyTests.cs deleted (2, tested the now-deleted
  TextRenderGlStateScope) plus the one retired ResourceCleanupGroupTests
  method). Full solution: 8,908 passed / 5 skipped across all nine test
  projects.
- Offline pixel gate (tools/run-offline-pixel-gate.ps1, parent ec414d60
  vs this commit): differing fraction 0.318% (1,791/563,200 compared
  pixels), above the 0.001 threshold. Investigated pixel-by-pixel rather
  than waved through: a diff heatmap plus 4x crops at the differing
  clusters show zero differences anywhere in the retained UI, terrain,
  scenery, or static meshes - every differing pixel sits on continuously-
  animated ambient content (flying-insect sprites over the swamp, foliage
  sparkle/dew glints) whose exact phase depends on elapsed wall-clock
  time, the same category the gate's own sky-masking rationale already
  documents and the campaign doc's coverage table explicitly excludes
  ("Not covered - particles"). Confirming evidence: two same-commit
  captures at HEAD compare clean against each other (0.0025%), and two
  same-commit captures at the parent compare clean against each other
  (0.0044%) - only base-vs-head is consistently elevated, which is what
  frame-pacing drift from genuinely new per-frame RHI work (BeginFrame,
  ring resets, the render-state reset above) would produce against a
  fixed wall-clock capture deadline, not a rendering defect. Recommend a
  quick user visual check of this capture pair alongside the automated
  result, matching how V2c's particle work was already handled in this
  campaign (flagged for user visual confirmation rather than blocked on
  an automated gate that cannot cover animated content).

ef1d263337 perf(rendering): draw retained frame product
Make the incremental render scene the production entity source at the existing retail PView stages while retaining the accepted dispatcher upload and draw executor. Keep diagnostics consumer-gated, retain ordered indices across unchanged frames, refresh only dirty records, and preserve exact mesh-load, selection, alpha, lighting, and route lifecycle semantics.

54d17eb446 perf(rendering): retain packed classification
Retain appearance classification per projection while refreshing transforms, clip slots, lights, selection lighting, and group instance payloads each frame. Incomplete resources and active animation remain on the live classification path, and only an exact full packed comparison acknowledges scene dirtiness.

06e7754619 fix(rendering): match empty packed submissions
The production dispatcher forces transparent deferral off when no top-level VAO was resolved, even if the frame alpha queue is active. Carry the same per-draw VAO sentinel into the compare-only packed classifier so its empty-submission state is exact rather than sampling only the later queue state.

29195fb255 feat(rendering): prove packed dispatcher output parity
Build a compare-only dispatcher classifier from RenderFrameView and compare complete opaque, alpha, selection, clip, light, texture, transform, and draw payloads against the accepted path. Preserve retail's stable equal-CYpt ordering with explicit draw-local submission ordinals so material-group history cannot affect alpha ties.
