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.

43e3abed4d fix(render): correct foliage-wind classification, receiver/caster desync, and frame binding (Campaign VM VM6 review)
Opus dual-lens review of the three VM6 commits (0930c35d, 39e8408c,
6cc5e183) found two blockers and two should-fix issues; all landed here
along with the review's nits and documentation corrections.

Blockers:
- A1: the procedural-scenery classifier tested bit 31 alone instead of
  the full top nibble (0xF000_0000 == 0x8000_0000), so it also matched
  LandblockStaticEntityIdAllocator's 0xC... namespace (fences/gates/
  building shells with a cutout subset), the 0xDA11_D0xx paperdoll id,
  and the 0xFFFF_FF01 portal-tunnel id as procedural scenery — all
  three would have swayed. ProceduralSceneryIdAllocator.IsInNamespace
  now does the exact top-nibble test; FoliageWindClassification
  delegates to it.
- A2: GroupKey (the receiver's instance-batching key) did not carry
  FoliageFlags while the caster's dedup key already did, so a scenery
  instance and a non-scenery instance sharing a mesh subset coalesced
  into one receiver InstanceGroup whose flags were last-writer-wins —
  disagreeing with the correctly-keyed caster. GroupKey now carries
  FoliageFlags, computed before key construction and set exactly once
  at group creation; the imperative re-stamp is gone, and CachedBatch's
  now-redundant FoliageFlags field is removed.

Should-fix:
- A3: the world receiver pass bound UniformAtmosphericFrame only by
  accident (leftover from the caster pass, which runs first each
  frame, since Vulkan binding state isn't reset between passes).
  DirectionalShadowFrameBinding now carries the caster's exact
  AtmosphericFrameBufferBinding and BindDirectionalShadowReceiver binds
  it explicitly.
- A4: a Setup-composed tree's opaque trunk part never got the trunk
  flag because HasCutoutSubset is cached per GfxObj part, not per
  entity. FoliageWindClassification.ComputeEntityHasCutoutSubset now
  ORs HasCutoutSubset across an entity's resolved sibling parts once
  per entity, threaded into ClassifyBatches/AddDirectionalShadowBatches
  via a new optional override parameter.

Nits: A5 hashes the per-vertex flutter seed relative to the instance
origin instead of absolute world XY (fp32 sin() precision loss at far
landblock corners), mirrored in both foliage_wind.glsl and
FoliageWindModel; A7 documents the max(maxHeight, 0.5) divide-guard as
a deliberate pseudocode divergence; A8 switches FoliageWindExclusions'
construction to ToFrozenSet() and softens the "never stale" doc
comment to "no slower than one frame behind."

Tests added: top-nibble classification (0xFFFFFFFFu now correctly
false), GroupKey inequality across entity-driven scenery/landblock-
static classification, a caster-batch test proving the same pairing
never coalesces, ComputeEntityHasCutoutSubset unit + end-to-end
two-part-Setup tests, the caster→receiver AtmosphericFrame binding
carry-through, flutter-hash translation invariance relative to
instance origin, and a Storm-wind mid-height displacement floor
guarding against a "no motion" regression.

Docs: plan VM6 body corrected to the five-row WeatherKind table, "bits
1 and 2", "all four" caster shaders, and top-nibble wording throughout;
the owner gate checklist's Rain/Storm step; the stale v1-only shader-
interface compatibility entry; semantic-bindings-v1.md's v2 members
folded into the main 192-byte block; the IA-25 register row's top-
nibble wording; AtmosphericFrameInputs.cs's ABI size reference.

foliage_wind.glsl's A5 change recompiled exactly the five shaders that
include it (mesh_atmospheric.vert, the four directional_shadow_world_*
casters) plus the manifest; no other .spv changed.

Verify: Release build 0 warnings/0 errors. App hermetic-lane filter
6,041/0 failed (no environment-specific failures this run).
RenderPackValidator 30/30. Full hermetic-filtered solution: 15,269/0
failed across 15 projects.
