This patch adds radial gradients, including both the piet API and some
new methods specifically to support COLRv1, including the ability to
transform the gradient separately from the path.
Separate out render context upload from renderer creation. Upload ramps
to GPU buffer. Encode gradients to scene description. Fix a number of
bugs in uploading and processing.
This renders gradients in a test image, but has some shortcomings. For
one, staging buffers need to be applied for a couple things (they're
just host mapped for now). Also, the interaction between sRGB and
premultiplied alpha isn't quite right. The size of the gradient ramp
buffer is fixed and should be dynamic.
And of course there's always more optimization to be done, including
making the upload of gradient ramps more incremental, and probably
hashing of the stops instead of the processed ramps.
WIP. Most of the GPU-side work should be done (though it's not tested
end-to-end and it's certainly possible I missed something), but still
needs work on encoding side.
This change completes general support for stroked fills for clips and
images.
Annotated_size increases from 28 to 32, because of the linewidth field
added to AnnoImage. Stroked image fills are presumably rare, and if
memory pressure turns out to be a bottleneck, we could replace the
linewidth field with a separate AnnoLinewidth elements.

Before this change, every command (FillColor, FillImage, BeginClip)
had (or would need) stroke, (non-zero) fill and solid variants.
This change adds a command for each fill mode and their parameters,
reducing code duplication and adds support for stroked FillImage and
BeginClip as a side-effect.
The rest of the pipeline doesn't yet support Stroked FillImage and
BeginClip. That's a follow-up change.
Since each command includes a tag, this change adds an extra word for
each fill and stroke. That waste is also addressed in a follow-up.

Encode stroke vs fill as tag flags, thereby reducing the number of scene
elements. Encoding change only, no functional changes.
The previous Stroke and Fill commands are merged to one command,
FillColor. The encoding to annotated element is divergent, which is
fixed when annotated elements move to tag flags.

FillImage is like Fill, except that it takes its color from one or
more image atlases.
kernel4 uses a single image for non-Vulkan hosts, and the dynamic sized array
of image descriptors on Vulkan.
A previous version of this commit used textures. I think images are a better
choice for piet-gpu, for several reasons:
- Texture sampling, in particular textureGrad, is slow on lower spec devices
such as Google Pixel. Texture sampling is particularly slow and difficult to
implement for CPU fallbacks.
- Texture sampling need more parameters, in particular the full u,v
transformation matrix, leading to a large increase in the command size. Since
all commands use the same size, that memory penalty is paid by all scenes, not
just scenes with textures.
- It is unlikely that piet-gpu will support every kind of fill for every
client, because each kind must be added to kernel4.
With FillImage, a client will prepare the image(s) in separate shader stages,
sampling and applying transformations and special effects as needed. Textures
that align with the output pixel grid can be used directly, without
pre-processing.
Note that the pre-processing step can run concurrently with the piet-gpu pipeline;
Only the last stage, kernel4, needs the images.
Pre-processing most likely uses fixed function vertex/fragment programs,
which on some GPUs may run in parallel with piet-gpu's compute programs.
While here, fix a few validation errors:
- Explicitly enable EXT_descriptor_indexing, KHR_maintenance3,
KHR_get_physical_device_properties2.
- Specify a vkDescriptorSetVariableDescriptorCountAllocateInfo for
vkAllocateDescriptorSets. Otherwise, variable image2D arrays won't work (but
sampler2D arrays do, at least on my setup).

As described in #62, the non-deterministic scene monoid may result in
slightly different transformations for path segments in an otherwise
closed path.
This change ensures consistent transformation across paths in three steps.
First, absolute transformations computed by the scene monoid is stored
along with path segments and annotated elements.
Second, elements.comp no longer transforms path segments. Instead, each
segment is stored untransformed along with a reference to its absolute
transformation.
Finally, path_coarse performs the transformation of path segments.
Because all segments in a path share a single transformation reference,
the inconsistency in #62 is avoided.

Eliminates the precision loss of the subtraction in the sign(end.x - start.x)
expression in kernel4. That's important for the next change that avoids
inconsistent line intersections in path_coarse.

I realized there's a problem with encoding clip bboxes relative to the
current transform (see #36 for a more detailed explanation), so this is
changing it to absolute bboxes.
This more or less gets clips working. There are optimization
opportunities (all-clear and all-opaque mask tiles), and it doesn't deal
with overflow of the blend stack, but it seems to basically work.
Actually handle transforms in RenderCtx (was implemented in renderer but
not actually plumbed through). This also requires maintaining a state
stack, which will also be required for clipping.
This PR also starts work on encoding clipping, including tracking
bounding boxes.
WIP, none of this is tested yet.
Expand the the final kernel4 stage to maintain a per-pixel mask.
Introduce two new path elements, FillMask and FillMaskInv, to fill
the mask. FillMask acts like Fill, while FillMaskInv fills the area
outside the path.
SVG clipPaths is then representable by a FillMaskInv(0.0) for every nested
path, preceded by a FillMask(1.0) to clear the mask.
The bounding box for FillMaskInv elements is the entire screen; tightening of
the bounding box is left for future work. Note that a fullscreen bounding
box is not hopelessly inefficient because completely filling a tile with
a mask is just a single CmdSolidMask per tile.

Path segments are unsorted, but other elements are using the same
sort-middle approach as before.
This is a checkpoint. At this point, there are unoptimized versions
of tile init and coarse path raster, but it isn't wired up into a
working pipeline. Also observing about a 3x performance regression in
element processing, which needs to be investigated.
Trying to fit it into the fancy monad doesn't really work, so use a
more straightforward approach to compute it from the aggregate.
Also add yEdge logic (basically copying piet-metal). With a fix to
ELEMENT_BINNING_RATIO (which I had simply gotten wrong), the example
renders almost correctly, with small bounding box artifacts.
Write the right_edge to the binning output.
More work on encoding the fill/stroke distinction and plumbing that
through the pipeline. This is a bit unsatisfying because of the code
duplication; having an extra fill/stroke bool might be better, but I
want to avoid making the structs bigger (this could be solved by
better packing in the struct encoding).
Fills are plumbed through to the last stage. Backdrop is WIP.
This should get the "right_edge" value for each segment plumbed through
to the binning phase. It also needs to be plumbed to coarse raster and
wired up there.
Also considering WIP because none of this logic has been tested yet.
This version seems to work but the allocation of segments has low
utilization. Probably best to allocate in chunks rather than try to
make them contiguous.
Handling f16 requires special work, compared to other scalars, as the minimum conversion operation for u32->f16 in GLSL (unpackHalf2x16) loads two f16s from one u32. This means that in order to minimize unnecessary calls to unpackHalf2x16, we should look-ahead to see if the current f16 has already been extracted in the process of dealing with the last f16. Similar considerations exist for write operations, where we want to pack, when possible, two f16s in one go (using packHalf2x16).
This patch adds a module that contains both scene and ptcl types (very
lightly adapted from piet-metal), as well as infrastructure for encoding
Rust-side.
WIP, it's not wired up in either the shader or on the Rust side.
