Add support for KHR_texture_transform (#11904)
Adopted #8266, so copy-pasting the description from there:

# Objective

Support the KHR_texture_transform extension for the glTF loader.

- Fixes #6335
- Fixes #11869 
- Implements part of #11350
- Implements the GLTF part of #399 

## Solution

As is, this only supports a single transform. Looking at Godot's source,
they support one transform with an optional second one for detail, AO,
and emission. glTF specifies one per texture. The public domain
materials I looked at seem to share the same transform. So maybe having
just one is acceptable for now. I tried to include a warning if multiple
different transforms exist for the same material.

Note the gltf crate doesn't expose the texture transform for the normal
and occlusion textures, which it should, so I just ignored those for
now. (note by @janhohenheim: this is still the case)

Via `cargo run --release --example scene_viewer
~/src/clone/glTF-Sample-Models/2.0/TextureTransformTest/glTF/TextureTransformTest.gltf`:

## Changelog

Support for the
[KHR_texture_transform](https://github.com/KhronosGroup/glTF/tree/main/extensions/2.0/Khronos/KHR_texture_transform)
extension added. Texture UVs that were scaled, rotated, or offset in a
GLTF are now properly handled.

Save 16 bytes per MeshUniform in uniform/storage buffers (#11999)
# Objective

- Save 16 bytes per MeshUniform in uniform/storage buffers.

## Solution

- Reorder members of MeshUniform to capitalise on alignment and size
rules for tighter data packing. Before the size of a MeshUniform was 160
bytes, and after it is 144 bytes, saving 16 bytes of unused padding for
alignment.

---

## Changelog

- Reduced the size of MeshUniform by 16 bytes.

Allow Mesh-related queue phase systems to parallelize (#11804)
# Objective
Partially addresses #3548. `queue_shadows` and `queue_material_meshes`
cannot parallelize because of the `ResMut<RenderMeshInstances>`
parameter for `queue_material_meshes`.

## Solution
Change the `material_bind_group` field to use atomics instead of needing
full mutable access. Change the `ResMut` to a `Res`, which should allow
both sets of systems to parallelize without issue.

## Performance
Tested against `many_foxes`, this has a significant improvement over the
entire render schedule. (Yellow is this PR, red is main)

![image](https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/assets/3137680/6cc7f346-4f50-4f12-a383-682a9ce1daf6)

The use of atomics does seem to have a negative effect on
`queue_material_meshes` (roughly a 8.29% increase in time spent in the
system).

![image](https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/assets/3137680/7907079a-863d-4760-aa5b-df68c006ea36)

`queue_shadows` seems to be ever so slightly slower (1.6% more time
spent) in the system.

![image](https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/assets/3137680/6d90af73-b922-45e4-bae5-df200e8b9784)

`batch_and_prepare_render_phase` seems to be a mix, but overall seems to
be slightly *faster* by about 5%.

# Objective

Provide a public replacement for `Into<MeshUniform>` trait impl which
was removed by #10231.

duplicate this function if it's not accessible.

## Solution

fix shadow batching (#11645)
# Objective

`RenderMeshInstance::material_bind_group_id` is only set from
`queue_material_meshes::<M>`. this field is used (only) for determining
batch groups, so some items may be batched incorrectly if they have
never been in the camera's view or if they don't use the Material
abstraction.

in particular, shadow views render more meshes than the main camera, and
currently batch some meshes where the object has never entered the
camera view together. this is quite hard to trigger, but should occur in
a scene with out-of-view alpha-mask materials (so that the material
instance actually affects the shadow) in the path of a light.

this is also a footgun for custom pipelines: failing to set the
material_bind_group_id will result in all meshes being batched together
and all using the closest/furthest material to the camera (depending on
sort order).

## Solution

- queue_shadows now sets the material_bind_group_id correctly
- `MeshPipeline` doesn't attempt to batch meshes if the
material_bind_group_id has not been set. custom pipelines still need to
set this field to take advantage of batching, but will at least render
correctly if it is not set

Move EntityHash related types into bevy_ecs (#11498)
# Objective

Reduce the size of `bevy_utils`
(https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/issues/11478)

## Solution

Move `EntityHash` related types into `bevy_ecs`. This also allows us
access to `Entity`, which means we no longer need `EntityHashMap`'s
first generic argument.

---

## Changelog

- Moved `bevy::utils::{EntityHash, EntityHasher, EntityHashMap,
EntityHashSet}` into `bevy::ecs::entity::hash` .
- Removed `EntityHashMap`'s first generic argument. It is now hardcoded
to always be `Entity`.

## Migration Guide

- Uses of `bevy::utils::{EntityHash, EntityHasher, EntityHashMap,
EntityHashSet}` now have to be imported from `bevy::ecs::entity::hash`.
- Uses of `EntityHashMap` no longer have to specify the first generic
parameter. It is now hardcoded to always be `Entity`.

Stop extracting mesh entities to the render world. (#11803)
This fixes a `FIXME` in `extract_meshes` and results in a performance
improvement.

As a result of this change, meshes in the render world might not be
attached to entities anymore. Therefore, the `entity` parameter to
`RenderCommand::render()` is now wrapped in an `Option`. Most
applications that use the render app's ECS can simply unwrap the
`Option`.

Note that for now sprites, gizmos, and UI elements still use the render
world as usual.

## Migration guide

* For efficiency reasons, some meshes in the render world may not have
corresponding `Entity` IDs anymore. As a result, the `entity` parameter
to `RenderCommand::render()` is now wrapped in an `Option`. Custom
rendering code may need to be updated to handle the case in which no
`Entity` exists for an object that is to be rendered.

Multithreaded render command encoding (#9172)
# Objective
- Encoding many GPU commands (such as in a renderpass with many draws,
such as the main opaque pass) onto a `wgpu::CommandEncoder` is very
expensive, and takes a long time.
- To improve performance, we want to perform the command encoding for
these heavy passes in parallel.

## Solution
- `RenderContext` can now queue up "command buffer generation tasks"
which are closures that will generate a command buffer when called.
- When finalizing the render context to produce the final list of
command buffers, these tasks are run in parallel on the
`ComputeTaskPool` to produce their corresponding command buffers.
- The general idea is that the node graph will run in serial, but in a
node, instead of doing rendering work, you can add tasks to do render
work in parallel with other node's tasks that get ran at the end of the
graph execution.

## Nodes Parallelized
- `MainOpaquePass3dNode`
- `PrepassNode`
- `DeferredGBufferPrepassNode`
- `ShadowPassNode` (One task per view)


## Future Work
- For large number of draws calls, might be worth further subdividing
passes into 2+ tasks.
- Extend this to UI, 2d, transparent, and transmissive nodes?
- Needs testing - small command buffers are inefficient - it may be
worth reverting to the serial command encoder usage for render phases
with few items.
- All "serial" (traditional) rendering work must finish before parallel
rendering tasks (the new stuff) can start to run.
- There is still only one submission to the graphics queue at the end of
the graph execution. There is still no ability to submit work earlier.

## Performance Improvement
Thanks to @Elabajaba for testing on Bistro.

TLDR: Without shadow mapping, this PR has no impact. _With_ shadow
mapping, this PR gives **~40 more fps** than main.

---

## Changelog
- `MainOpaquePass3dNode`, `PrepassNode`, `DeferredGBufferPrepassNode`,
and each shadow map within `ShadowPassNode` are now encoded in parallel,
giving _greatly_ increased CPU performance, mainly when shadow mapping
is enabled.
  - Does not work on WASM or AMD+Windows+Vulkan.
- Added `RenderContext::add_command_buffer_generation_task()`.
- `RenderContext::new()` now takes adapter info
- Some render graph and Node related types and methods now have
additional lifetime constraints.

Implement irradiance volumes. (#10268)
# Objective

Bevy could benefit from *irradiance volumes*, also known as *voxel
global illumination* or simply as light probes (though this term is not
preferred, as multiple techniques can be called light probes).
Irradiance volumes are a form of baked global illumination; they work by
sampling the light at the centers of each voxel within a cuboid. At
runtime, the voxels surrounding the fragment center are sampled and
interpolated to produce indirect diffuse illumination.

## Solution

This is divided into two sections. The first is copied and pasted from
the irradiance volume module documentation and describes the technique.
The second part consists of notes on the implementation.

### Overview

An *irradiance volume* is a cuboid voxel region consisting of
regularly-spaced precomputed samples of diffuse indirect light. They're
ideal if you have a dynamic object such as a character that can move
about
static non-moving geometry such as a level in a game, and you want that
dynamic object to be affected by the light bouncing off that static
geometry.

To use irradiance volumes, you need to precompute, or *bake*, the
indirect
light in your scene. Bevy doesn't currently come with a way to do this.
Fortunately, [Blender] provides a [baking tool] as part of the Eevee
renderer, and its irradiance volumes are compatible with those used by
Bevy.
The [`bevy-baked-gi`] project provides a tool, `export-blender-gi`, that
can
extract the baked irradiance volumes from the Blender `.blend` file and
package them up into a `.ktx2` texture for use by the engine. See the
documentation in the `bevy-baked-gi` project for more details as to this
workflow.

Like all light probes in Bevy, irradiance volumes are 1×1×1 cubes that
can
be arbitrarily scaled, rotated, and positioned in a scene with the
[`bevy_transform::components::Transform`] component. The 3D voxel grid
will
be stretched to fill the interior of the cube, and the illumination from
the
irradiance volume will apply to all fragments within that bounding
region.

Bevy's irradiance volumes are based on Valve's [*ambient cubes*] as used
in
*Half-Life 2* ([Mitchell 2006], slide 27). These encode a single color
of
light from the six 3D cardinal directions and blend the sides together
according to the surface normal.

The primary reason for choosing ambient cubes is to match Blender, so
that
its Eevee renderer can be used for baking. However, they also have some
advantages over the common second-order spherical harmonics approach:
ambient cubes don't suffer from ringing artifacts, they are smaller (6
colors for ambient cubes as opposed to 9 for spherical harmonics), and
evaluation is faster. A smaller basis allows for a denser grid of voxels
with the same storage requirements.

If you wish to use a tool other than `export-blender-gi` to produce the
irradiance volumes, you'll need to pack the irradiance volumes in the
following format. The irradiance volume of resolution *(Rx, Ry, Rz)* is
expected to be a 3D texture of dimensions *(Rx, 2Ry, 3Rz)*. The
unnormalized
texture coordinate *(s, t, p)* of the voxel at coordinate *(x, y, z)*
with
side *S* ∈ *{-X, +X, -Y, +Y, -Z, +Z}* is as follows:

```text
s = x

t = y + ⎰  0 if S ∈ {-X, -Y, -Z}
        ⎱ Ry if S ∈ {+X, +Y, +Z}

        ⎧   0 if S ∈ {-X, +X}
p = z + ⎨  Rz if S ∈ {-Y, +Y}
        ⎩ 2Rz if S ∈ {-Z, +Z}
```

Visually, in a left-handed coordinate system with Y up, viewed from the
right, the 3D texture looks like a stacked series of voxel grids, one
for
each cube side, in this order:

| **+X** | **+Y** | **+Z** |
| ------ | ------ | ------ |
| **-X** | **-Y** | **-Z** |

A terminology note: Other engines may refer to irradiance volumes as
*voxel
global illumination*, *VXGI*, or simply as *light probes*. Sometimes
*light
probe* refers to what Bevy calls a reflection probe. In Bevy, *light
probe*
is a generic term that encompasses all cuboid bounding regions that
capture
indirect illumination, whether based on voxels or not.

Note that, if binding arrays aren't supported (e.g. on WebGPU or WebGL
2),
then only the closest irradiance volume to the view will be taken into
account during rendering.

### Implementation notes

This patch generalizes light probes so as to reuse as much code as
possible between irradiance volumes and the existing reflection probes.
This approach was chosen because both techniques share numerous
similarities:

1. Both irradiance volumes and reflection probes are cuboid bounding
regions.
2. Both are responsible for providing baked indirect light.
3. Both techniques involve presenting a variable number of textures to
the shader from which indirect light is sampled. (In the current
implementation, this uses binding arrays.)
4. Both irradiance volumes and reflection probes require gathering and
sorting probes by distance on CPU.
5. Both techniques require the GPU to search through a list of bounding
regions.
6. Both will eventually want to have falloff so that we can smoothly
blend as objects enter and exit the probes' influence ranges. (This is
not implemented yet to keep this patch relatively small and reviewable.)

To do this, we generalize most of the methods in the reflection probes
patch #11366 to be generic over a trait, `LightProbeComponent`. This
trait is implemented by both `EnvironmentMapLight` (for reflection
probes) and `IrradianceVolume` (for irradiance volumes). Using a trait
will allow us to add more types of light probes in the future. In
particular, I highly suspect we will want real-time reflection planes
for mirrors in the future, which can be easily slotted into this
framework.

## Changelog

> This section is optional. If this was a trivial fix, or has no
externally-visible impact, you can delete this section.

### Added
* A new `IrradianceVolume` asset type is available for baked voxelized
light probes. You can bake the global illumination using Blender or
another tool of your choice and use it in Bevy to apply indirect
illumination to dynamic objects.

Use warn_once where relevant instead of manually implementing a single warn check (#11693)
# Objective

- Some places manually use a `bool` /`AtomicBool` to warn once.

## Solution

- Use the `warn_once` macro which internally creates an `AtomicBool`.

Downside: in some case the warning state would have been reset after
recreating the struct carrying the warn state, whereas now it will
always warn only once per program run (For example, if all
`MeshPipeline`s are dropped or the `World` is recreated for
`Local<bool>`/ a `bool` resource, which shouldn't happen over the course
of a standard `App` run).

### Removed

- `FontAtlasWarning` has been removed, but the corresponding warning is
still emitted.

Gate diffuse and specular transmission behind shader defs (#11627)
# Objective

- Address #10338

## Solution

- When implementing specular and diffuse transmission, I inadvertently
introduced a performance regression. On high-end hardware it is barely
noticeable, but **for lower-end hardware it can be pretty brutal**. If I
understand it correctly, this is likely due to use of masking by the GPU
to implement control flow, which means that you still pay the price for
the branches you don't take;
- To avoid that, this PR introduces new shader defs (controlled via
`StandardMaterialKey`) that conditionally include the transmission
logic, that way the shader code for both types of transmission isn't
even sent to the GPU if you're not using them;
- This PR also renames ~~`STANDARDMATERIAL_NORMAL_MAP`~~ to
`STANDARD_MATERIAL_NORMAL_MAP` for consistency with the naming
convention used elsewhere in the codebase. (Drive-by fix)

---

## Changelog

- Added new shader defs, set when using transmission in the
`StandardMaterial`:
  - `STANDARD_MATERIAL_SPECULAR_TRANSMISSION`;
  - `STANDARD_MATERIAL_DIFFUSE_TRANSMISSION`;
  - `STANDARD_MATERIAL_SPECULAR_OR_DIFFUSE_TRANSMISSION`.
- Fixed performance regression caused by the introduction of
transmission, by gating transmission shader logic behind the newly
introduced shader defs;
- Renamed ~~`STANDARDMATERIAL_NORMAL_MAP`~~ to
`STANDARD_MATERIAL_NORMAL_MAP` for consistency;

## Migration Guide

- If you were using `#ifdef STANDARDMATERIAL_NORMAL_MAP` on your shader
code, make sure to update the name to `STANDARD_MATERIAL_NORMAL_MAP`;
(with an underscore between `STANDARD` and `MATERIAL`)

Optimize extract_clusters and prepare_clusters systems (#10633)
# Objective

When developing my game I realized `extract_clusters` and
`prepare_clusters` systems are taking a lot of time despite me creating
very little lights. Reducing number of clusters from the default 4096 to
2048 or less greatly improved performance and stabilized FPS (~300 ->
1000+). I debugged it and found out that the main reason for this is
cloning `VisiblePointLights` in `extract_clusters` system. It contains
light entities grouped by clusters that they affect. The problem is that
we clone 4096 (assuming the default clusters configuration) vectors
every frame. If many of them happen to be non-empty it starts to be a
bottleneck because there is a lot of heap allocation. It wouldn't be a
problem if we reused those vectors in following frames but we don't.

## Solution

Avoid cloning multiple vectors and instead build a single vector
containing data for all clusters.

I've recorded a trace in `3d_scene` example with disabled v-sync before
and after the change.
Mean FPS went from 424 to 990. Mean time for `extract_clusters` system
was reduced from 210 us to 24 us and `prepare_clusters` from 189 us to
87 us.

Update to wgpu 0.19 and raw-window-handle 0.6 (#11280)
# Objective

Keep core dependencies up to date.

## Solution

Update the dependencies.

wgpu 0.19 only supports raw-window-handle (rwh) 0.6, so bumping that was
included in this.

The rwh 0.6 version bump is just the simplest way of doing it. There
might be a way we can take advantage of wgpu's new safe surface creation
api, but I'm not familiar enough with bevy's window management to
untangle it and my attempt ended up being a mess of lifetimes and rustc
complaining about missing trait impls (that were implemented). Thanks to
@MiniaczQ for the (much simpler) rwh 0.6 version bump code.

Unblocks https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/pull/9172 and
https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/pull/10812

~~This might be blocked on cpal and oboe updating their ndk versions to
0.8, as they both currently target ndk 0.7 which uses rwh 0.5.2~~ Tested
on android, and everything seems to work correctly (audio properly stops
when minimized, and plays when re-focusing the app).

---

## Changelog

- `wgpu` has been updated to 0.19! The long awaited arcanization has
been merged (for more info, see
https://gfx-rs.github.io/2023/11/24/arcanization.html), and Vulkan
should now be working again on Intel GPUs.
- Targeting WebGPU now requires that you add the new `webgpu` feature
(setting the `RUSTFLAGS` environment variable to
`--cfg=web_sys_unstable_apis` is still required). This feature currently
overrides the `webgl2` feature if you have both enabled (the `webgl2`
feature is enabled by default), so it is not recommended to add it as a
default feature to libraries without putting it behind a flag that
allows library users to opt out of it! In the future we plan on
supporting wasm binaries that can target both webgl2 and webgpu now that
wgpu added support for doing so (see
https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/issues/11505).
- `raw-window-handle` has been updated to version 0.6.

## Migration Guide

- `bevy_render::instance_index::get_instance_index()` has been removed
as the webgl2 workaround is no longer required as it was fixed upstream
in wgpu. The `BASE_INSTANCE_WORKAROUND` shaderdef has also been removed.
- WebGPU now requires the new `webgpu` feature to be enabled. The
`webgpu` feature currently overrides the `webgl2` feature so you no
longer need to disable all default features and re-add them all when
targeting `webgpu`, but binaries built with both the `webgpu` and
`webgl2` features will only target the webgpu backend, and will only
work on browsers that support WebGPU.
- Places where you conditionally compiled things for webgl2 need to be
updated because of this change, eg:
- `#[cfg(any(not(feature = "webgl"), not(target_arch = "wasm32")))]`
becomes `#[cfg(any(not(feature = "webgl") ,not(target_arch = "wasm32"),
feature = "webgpu"))]`
- `#[cfg(all(feature = "webgl", target_arch = "wasm32"))]` becomes
`#[cfg(all(feature = "webgl", target_arch = "wasm32", not(feature =
"webgpu")))]`
- `if cfg!(all(feature = "webgl", target_arch = "wasm32"))` becomes `if
cfg!(all(feature = "webgl", target_arch = "wasm32", not(feature =
"webgpu")))`
- `create_texture_with_data` now also takes a `TextureDataOrder`. You
can probably just set this to `TextureDataOrder::default()`
- `TextureFormat`'s `block_size` has been renamed to `block_copy_size`
- See the `wgpu` changelog for anything I might've missed:

https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/pull/10779 It doesn't make sense to
me that a bunch of types that are used to run queries aren't named Query
anymore. Like ViewQuery on the ViewNode is the type of the Query. I
don't really understand the point of the rename, it just seems like it
hides the fact that a query will run based on those types.

optimize batch_and_prepare_render_phase (#11323)
# Objective

- since #9685  ,bevy introduce automatic batching of draw commands, 
- `batch_and_prepare_render_phase` take the responsibility for batching
`phaseItem`,
- `GetBatchData` trait is used for indentify each phaseitem how to
batch. it defines a associated type `Data `used for Query to fetch data
from world.

- however,the impl of `GetBatchData ` in bevy always set ` type
Data=Entity` then we acually get following code
`let entity:Entity =query.get(item.entity())` that cause unnecessary
overhead .

## Solution

- remove associated type `Data ` and `Filter` from `GetBatchData `,
- change the type of the `query_item ` parameter in get_batch_data from`
Self::Data` to `Entity`.
- `batch_and_prepare_render_phase ` no longer takes a query using
`F::Data, F::Filter`
- `get_batch_data `now returns `Option<(Self::BufferData,
Option<Self::CompareData>)>`

Implement minimal reflection probes (fixed macOS, iOS, and Android). (#11366)
This pull request re-submits #10057, which was backed out for breaking
macOS, iOS, and Android. I've tested this version on macOS and Android
and on the iOS simulator.

# Objective

This pull request implements *reflection probes*, which generalize
environment maps to allow for multiple environment maps in the same
scene, each of which has an axis-aligned bounding box. This is a
standard feature of physically-based renderers and was inspired by [the
corresponding feature in Blender's Eevee renderer].

## Solution

This is a minimal implementation of reflection probes that allows
artists to define cuboid bounding regions associated with environment
maps. For every view, on every frame, a system builds up a list of the
nearest 4 reflection probes that are within the view's frustum and
supplies that list to the shader. The PBR fragment shader searches
through the list, finds the first containing reflection probe, and uses
it for indirect lighting, falling back to the view's environment map if
none is found. Both forward and deferred renderers are fully supported.

A reflection probe is an entity with a pair of components, *LightProbe*
and *EnvironmentMapLight* (as well as the standard *SpatialBundle*, to
position it in the world). The *LightProbe* component (along with the
*Transform*) defines the bounding region, while the
*EnvironmentMapLight* component specifies the associated diffuse and
specular cubemaps.

A frequent question is "why two components instead of just one?" The
advantages of this setup are:

1. It's readily extensible to other types of light probes, in particular
*irradiance volumes* (also known as ambient cubes or voxel global
illumination), which use the same approach of bounding cuboids. With a
single component that applies to both reflection probes and irradiance
volumes, we can share the logic that implements falloff and blending
between multiple light probes between both of those features.

2. It reduces duplication between the existing *EnvironmentMapLight* and
these new reflection probes. Systems can treat environment maps attached
to cameras the same way they treat environment maps applied to
reflection probes if they wish.

Internally, we gather up all environment maps in the scene and place
them in a cubemap array. At present, this means that all environment
maps must have the same size, mipmap count, and texture format. A
warning is emitted if this restriction is violated. We could potentially
relax this in the future as part of the automatic mipmap generation
work, which could easily do texture format conversion as part of its
preprocessing.

An easy way to generate reflection probe cubemaps is to bake them in
Blender and use the `export-blender-gi` tool that's part of the
[`bevy-baked-gi`] project. This tool takes a `.blend` file containing
baked cubemaps as input and exports cubemap images, pre-filtered with an
embedded fork of the [glTF IBL Sampler], alongside a corresponding
`.scn.ron` file that the scene spawner can use to recreate the
reflection probes.

Note that this is intentionally a minimal implementation, to aid
reviewability. Known issues are:

* Reflection probes are basically unsupported on WebGL 2, because WebGL
2 has no cubemap arrays. (Strictly speaking, you can have precisely one
reflection probe in the scene if you have no other cubemaps anywhere,
but this isn't very useful.)

* Reflection probes have no falloff, so reflections will abruptly change
when objects move from one bounding region to another.

* As mentioned before, all cubemaps in the world of a given type
(diffuse or specular) must have the same size, format, and mipmap count.

Future work includes:

* Blending between multiple reflection probes.

* A falloff/fade-out region so that reflected objects disappear
gradually instead of vanishing all at once.

* Irradiance volumes for voxel-based global illumination. This should
reuse much of the reflection probe logic, as they're both GI techniques
based on cuboid bounding regions.

* Support for WebGL 2, by breaking batches when reflection probes are
used.

These issues notwithstanding, I think it's best to land this with
roughly the current set of functionality, because this patch is useful
as is and adding everything above would make the pull request
significantly larger and harder to review.

---

## Changelog

### Added

* A new *LightProbe* component is available that specifies a bounding
region that an *EnvironmentMapLight* applies to. The combination of a
*LightProbe* and an *EnvironmentMapLight* offers *reflection probe*
functionality similar to that available in other engines.

Exposure settings (adopted) (#11347)
Rebased and finished version of
https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/pull/8407. Huge thanks to @GitGhillie
for adjusting all the examples, and the many other people who helped
write this PR (@superdump , @coreh , among others) :)

Fixes https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/issues/8369

---

## Changelog
- Added a `brightness` control to `Skybox`.
- Added an `intensity` control to `EnvironmentMapLight`.
- Added `ExposureSettings` and `PhysicalCameraParameters` for
controlling exposure of 3D cameras.
- Removed the baked-in `DirectionalLight` exposure Bevy previously
hardcoded internally.

## Migration Guide
- If using a `Skybox` or `EnvironmentMapLight`, use the new `brightness`
and `intensity` controls to adjust their strength.
- All 3D scene will now have different apparent brightnesses due to Bevy
implementing proper exposure controls. You will have to adjust the
intensity of your lights and/or your camera exposure via the new
`ExposureSettings` component to compensate.

Approximate indirect specular occlusion (#11152)
# Objective

- The current PBR renderer over-brightens indirect specular reflections,
which tends to cause objects to appear to glow, because specular
occlusion is not accounted for.

## Solution

- Attenuate indirect specular term with an approximation for specular
occlusion, using [[Lagarde et al., 2014] (pg.
76)](https://seblagarde.files.wordpress.com/2015/07/course_notes_moving_frostbite_to_pbr_v32.pdf).

Implement lightmaps. (#10231)
![Screenshot](https://i.imgur.com/A4KzWFq.png)

# Objective

Lightmaps, textures that store baked global illumination, have been a
mainstay of real-time graphics for decades. Bevy currently has no
support for them, so this pull request implements them.

## Solution

The new `Lightmap` component can be attached to any entity that contains
a `Handle<Mesh>` and a `StandardMaterial`. When present, it will be
applied in the PBR shader. Because multiple lightmaps are frequently
packed into atlases, each lightmap may have its own UV boundaries within
its texture. An `exposure` field is also provided, to control the
brightness of the lightmap.

Note that this PR doesn't provide any way to bake the lightmaps. That
can be done with [The Lightmapper] or another solution, such as Unity's
Bakery.

---

## Changelog

### Added
* A new component, `Lightmap`, is available, for baked global
illumination. If your mesh has a second UV channel (UV1), and you attach
this component to the entity with that mesh, Bevy will apply the texture
referenced in the lightmap.

Do not load prepass normals for transmissive materials (#11140)
Turns out whenever a normal prepass was active (which includes whenever
you use SSAO) we were attempting to read the normals from the prepass
for the specular transmissive material. Since transmissive materials
don't participate in the prepass (unlike opaque materials) we were
reading the normals from “behind” the mesh, producing really weird
visual results.

# Objective

- Fixes #11112.

## Solution

- We introduce a new `READS_VIEW_TRANSMISSION_TEXTURE` mesh pipeline
key;
- We set it whenever the material properties has the
`reads_view_transmission_texture` flag set; (i.e. the material is
transmissive)
- If this key is set we prevent the reading of normals from the prepass,
by not setting the `LOAD_PREPASS_NORMALS` shader def.

---

## Changelog

### Fixed

- Specular transmissive materials no longer attempt to erroneously load
prepass normals, and now work correctly even with the normal prepass
active (e.g. when using SSAO)

Keep track of when a texture is first cleared (#10325)
# Objective
- Custom render passes, or future passes in the engine (such as
https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/pull/10164) need a better way to know
and indicate to the core passes whether the view color/depth/prepass
attachments have been cleared or not yet this frame, to know if they
should clear it themselves or load it.

## Solution

- For all render targets (depth textures, shadow textures, prepass
textures, main textures) use an atomic bool to track whether or not each
texture has been cleared this frame. Abstracted away in the new
ColorAttachment and DepthAttachment wrappers.

---

## Changelog
- Changed `ViewTarget::get_color_attachment()`, removed arguments.
- Changed `ViewTarget::get_unsampled_color_attachment()`, removed
arguments.
- Removed `Camera3d::clear_color`.
- Removed `Camera2d::clear_color`.
- Added `Camera::clear_color`.
- Added `ExtractedCamera::clear_color`.
- Added `ColorAttachment` and `DepthAttachment` wrappers.
- Moved `ClearColor` and `ClearColorConfig` from
`bevy::core_pipeline::clear_color` to `bevy::render::camera`.
- Core render passes now track when a texture is first bound as an
attachment in order to decide whether to clear or load it.

## Migration Guide
- Remove arguments to `ViewTarget::get_color_attachment()` and
`ViewTarget::get_unsampled_color_attachment()`.
- Configure clear color on `Camera` instead of on `Camera3d` and
`Camera2d`.
- Moved `ClearColor` and `ClearColorConfig` from
`bevy::core_pipeline::clear_color` to `bevy::render::camera`.
- `ViewDepthTexture` must now be created via the `new()` method

Update to wgpu 0.18 (#10266)
# Objective

Keep up to date with wgpu.

## Solution

Update the wgpu version.

Currently blocked on naga_oil updating to naga 0.14 and releasing a new
version.

3d scenes (or maybe any scene with lighting?) currently don't render
anything due to
```
error: naga_oil bug, please file a report: composer failed to build a valid header: Type [2] '' is invalid
 = Capability Capabilities(CUBE_ARRAY_TEXTURES) is required
 ```

I'm not sure what should be passed in for `wgpu::InstanceFlags`, or if we want to make the gles3minorversion configurable (might be useful for debugging?)

Currently blocked on https://github.com/bevyengine/naga_oil/pull/63, and https://github.com/gfx-rs/wgpu/issues/4569 to be fixed upstream in wgpu first.

## Known issues

Amd+windows+vulkan has issues with texture_binding_arrays (see the image [here](https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/pull/10266#issuecomment-1819946278)), but that'll be fixed in the next wgpu/naga version, and you can just use dx12 as a workaround for now (Amd+linux mesa+vulkan texture_binding_arrays are fixed though).

---

## Changelog

Updated wgpu to 0.18, naga to 0.14.2, and naga_oil to 0.11.
- Windows desktop GL should now be less painful as it no longer requires Angle.
- You can now toggle shader validation and debug information for debug and release builds using `WgpuSettings.instance_flags` and [InstanceFlags](https://docs.rs/wgpu/0.18.0/wgpu/struct.InstanceFlags.html)

## Migration Guide

- `RenderPassDescriptor` `color_attachments`  (as well as `RenderPassColorAttachment`, and `RenderPassDepthStencilAttachment`) now use `StoreOp::Store` or `StoreOp::Discard` instead of a `boolean` to declare whether or not they should be stored.
- `RenderPassDescriptor` now have `timestamp_writes` and `occlusion_query_set` fields. These can safely be set to `None`.
- `ComputePassDescriptor` now have a `timestamp_writes` field. This can be set to `None` for now.
- See the [wgpu changelog](https://github.com/gfx-rs/wgpu/blob/trunk/CHANGELOG.md#v0180-2023-10-25) for additional details

Rename WorldQueryData & WorldQueryFilter to QueryData & QueryFilter (#10779)
# Rename `WorldQueryData` & `WorldQueryFilter` to `QueryData` &
`QueryFilter`

Fixes #10776 

## Solution

Traits `WorldQueryData` & `WorldQueryFilter` were renamed to `QueryData`
and `QueryFilter`, respectively. Related Trait types were also renamed.

---

## Changelog

- Trait `WorldQueryData` has been renamed to `QueryData`. Derive macro's
`QueryData` attribute `world_query_data` has been renamed to
`query_data`.
- Trait `WorldQueryFilter` has been renamed to `QueryFilter`. Derive
macro's `QueryFilter` attribute `world_query_filter` has been renamed to
`query_filter`.
- Trait's `ExtractComponent` type `Query` has been renamed to `Data`.
- Trait's `GetBatchData` types `Query` & `QueryFilter` has been renamed
to `Data` & `Filter`, respectively.
- Trait's `ExtractInstance` type `Query` has been renamed to `Data`.
- Trait's `ViewNode` type `ViewQuery` has been renamed to `ViewData`.
- Trait's `RenderCommand` types `ViewWorldQuery` & `ItemWorldQuery` has
been renamed to `ViewData` & `ItemData`, respectively.

## Migration Guide

Note: if merged before 0.13 is released, this should instead modify the
migration guide of #10776 with the updated names.

- Rename `WorldQueryData` & `WorldQueryFilter` trait usages to
`QueryData` & `QueryFilter` and their respective derive macro attributes
`world_query_data` & `world_query_filter` to `query_data` &
`query_filter`.
- Rename the following trait type usages:
  - Trait's `ExtractComponent` type `Query` to `Data`.
  - Trait's `GetBatchData` type `Query` to `Data`.
  - Trait's `ExtractInstance` type `Query` to `Data`.
  - Trait's `ViewNode` type `ViewQuery` to `ViewData`'
- Trait's `RenderCommand` types `ViewWolrdQuery` & `ItemWorldQuery` to
`ViewData` & `ItemData`, respectively.

light renderlayers (#10742)
# Objective

add `RenderLayers` awareness to lights. lights default to
`RenderLayers::layer(0)`, and must intersect the camera entity's
`RenderLayers` in order to affect the camera's output.

note that lights already use renderlayers to filter meshes for shadow
casting. this adds filtering lights per view based on intersection of
camera layers and light layers.

fixes #3462 

## Solution

PointLights and SpotLights are assigned to individual views in
`assign_lights_to_clusters`, so we simply cull the lights which don't
match the view layers in that function.

DirectionalLights are global, so we 
- add the light layers to the `DirectionalLight` struct
- add the view layers to the `ViewUniform` struct
- check for intersection before processing the light in
`apply_pbr_lighting`

potential issue: when mesh/light layers are smaller than the view layers
weird results can occur. e.g:
camera = layers 1+2
light = layers 1
mesh = layers 2

the mesh does not cast shadows wrt the light as (1 & 2) == 0.
the light affects the view as (1+2 & 1) != 0. 
the view renders the mesh as (1+2 & 2) != 0.

so the mesh is rendered and lit, but does not cast a shadow. 

this could be fixed (so that the light would not affect the mesh in that
view) by adding the light layers to the point and spot light structs,
but i think the setup is pretty unusual, and space is at a premium in
those structs (adding 4 bytes more would reduce the webgl point+spot
light max count to 240 from 256).

I think typical usage is for cameras to have a single layer, and
meshes/lights to maybe have multiple layers to render to e.g. minimaps
as well as primary views.

if there is a good use case for the above setup and we should support
it, please let me know.

---

## Migration Guide

Lights no longer affect all `RenderLayers` by default, now like cameras
and meshes they default to `RenderLayers::layer(0)`. To recover the
previous behaviour and have all lights affect all views, add a
`RenderLayers::all()` component to the light entity.

Normalize only nonzero normals for mikktspace normal maps (#10905)
# Objective

Fixes #5891.

For mikktspace normal maps, normals must be renormalized in vertex
shaders to match the way mikktspace bakes vertex tangents and normal
maps so that the exact inverse process is applied when shading.

However, for invalid normals like `vec3<f32>(0.0, 0.0, 0.0)`, this
normalization causes NaN values, and because it's in the vertex shader,
it affects the entire triangle and causes it to be shaded as black:

![incorrectly shaded
cone](https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/assets/57632562/3334b3a9-f72a-4a08-853e-8077a346f5c9)

*A cone with a tip that has a vertex normal of [0, 0, 0], causing the
mesh to be shaded as black.*

In some cases, normals of zero are actually *useful*. For example, a
smoothly shaded cone without creases requires the apex vertex normal to
be zero, because there is no singular normal that works correctly, so
the apex shouldn't contribute to the overall shading. Duplicate vertices
for the apex fix some shading issues, but it causes visible creases and
is more expensive. See #5891 and #10298 for more details.

For correctly shaded cones and other similar low-density shapes with
sharp tips, vertex normals of zero can not be normalized in the vertex
shader.

## Solution

Only normalize the vertex normals and tangents in the vertex shader if
the normal isn't [0, 0, 0]. This way, mikktspace normal maps should
still work for everything except the zero normals, and the zero normals
will only be normalized in the fragment shader.

This allows us to render cones correctly:

![smooth cone with some
banding](https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/assets/57632562/6b36e264-22c6-453b-a6de-c404b314ca1a)

Notice how there is still a weird shadow banding effect in one area. I
noticed that it can be fixed by normalizing
[here](d2614f2d80/crates/bevy_pbr/src/render/pbr_functions.wgsl (L51)),
which produces a perfectly smooth cone without duplicate vertices:

![smooth
cone](https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/assets/57632562/64f9ad5d-b249-4eae-880b-a1e61e07ae73)

I didn't add this change yet, because it seems a bit arbitrary. I can
add it here if that'd be useful or make another PR though.

Fix prepass binding issues causing crashes when not all prepass bindings are used (#10788)
# Objective

Fixes https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/issues/10786

## Solution

The bind_group_layout entries for the prepass were wrong when not all 4
prepass textures were used, as it just zipped [17, 18, 19, 20] with the
smallvec of prepass `bind_group_layout` entries that potentially didn't
contain 4 entries. (eg. if you had a depth and motion vector prepass but
no normal prepass, then depth would be correct but the entry for the
motion vector prepass would be 18 (normal prepass' spot) instead of 19).

Change the prepass `get_bind_group_layout_entries` function to return an
array of `[Option<BindGroupLayoutEntryBuilder>; 4]` and only add the
layout entry if it exists.

Swap material and mesh bind groups (#10485)
# Objective
- Materials should be a more frequent rebind then meshes (due to being
able to use a single vertex buffer, such as in #10164) and therefore
should be in a higher bind group.

---

## Changelog
- For 2d and 3d mesh/material setups (but not UI materials, or other
rendering setups such as gizmos, sprites, or text), mesh data is now in
bind group 1, and material data is now in bind group 2, which is swapped
from how they were before.

## Migration Guide
- Custom 2d and 3d mesh/material shaders should now use bind group 2
`@group(2) @binding(x)` for their bound resources, instead of bind group
1.
- Many internal pieces of rendering code have changed so that mesh data
is now in bind group 1, and material data is now in bind group 2.
Semi-custom rendering setups (that don't use the Material or Material2d
APIs) should adapt to these changes.

Bind group layout entries (#10224)
# Objective

- Follow up to #9694

## Solution

- Same api as #9694 but adapted for `BindGroupLayoutEntry`
- Use the same `ShaderStages` visibilty for all entries by default
- Add `BindingType` helper function that mirror the wgsl equivalent and
that make writing layouts much simpler.

Before:
```rust
let layout = render_device.create_bind_group_layout(&BindGroupLayoutDescriptor {
    label: Some("post_process_bind_group_layout"),
    entries: &[
        BindGroupLayoutEntry {
            binding: 0,
            visibility: ShaderStages::FRAGMENT,
            ty: BindingType::Texture {
                sample_type: TextureSampleType::Float { filterable: true },
                view_dimension: TextureViewDimension::D2,
                multisampled: false,
            },
            count: None,
        },
        BindGroupLayoutEntry {
            binding: 1,
            visibility: ShaderStages::FRAGMENT,
            ty: BindingType::Sampler(SamplerBindingType::Filtering),
            count: None,
        },
        BindGroupLayoutEntry {
            binding: 2,
            visibility: ShaderStages::FRAGMENT,
            ty: BindingType::Buffer {
                ty: bevy::render::render_resource::BufferBindingType::Uniform,
                has_dynamic_offset: false,
                min_binding_size: Some(PostProcessSettings::min_size()),
            },
            count: None,
        },
    ],
});
```
After:
```rust
let layout = render_device.create_bind_group_layout(
    "post_process_bind_group_layout"),
    &BindGroupLayoutEntries::sequential(
        ShaderStages::FRAGMENT,
        (
            texture_2d_f32(),
            sampler(SamplerBindingType::Filtering),
            uniform_buffer(false, Some(PostProcessSettings::min_size())),
        ),
    ),
);
```

## Changelog

- Added `BindGroupLayoutEntries` and all `BindingType` helper functions.

## Migration Guide

`RenderDevice::create_bind_group_layout()` doesn't take a
`BindGroupLayoutDescriptor` anymore. You need to provide the parameters
separately

```rust
// 0.12
let layout = render_device.create_bind_group_layout(&BindGroupLayoutDescriptor {
    label: Some("post_process_bind_group_layout"),
    entries: &[
        BindGroupLayoutEntry {
			// ...
        },
    ],
});

// 0.13
let layout = render_device.create_bind_group_layout(
	"post_process_bind_group_layout",
    &[
        BindGroupLayoutEntry {
			// ...
        },
    ],
);
```

Ensure instance_index push constant is always used in prepass.wgsl (#10706)
# Objective

 Kind of helps #10509 

## Solution

Add a line to `prepass.wgsl` that ensure the `instance_index` push
constant is always used on WebGL 2. This is not a full fix, as the
_second_ a custom shader is used that doesn't use the push constant, the
breakage will resurface. We have satisfying medium term and long term
solutions. This is just a short term hack for 0.12.1 that will make more
cases work. See #10509 for more details.

Use as_image_copy where possible (#10733)
# Objective

`wgpu` has a helper method `texture.as_image_copy()` for a common
pattern when making a default-like `ImageCopyTexture` from a texture.

This is used in various places in Bevy for texture copy operations, but
it was not used where `write_texture` is called.

## Solution

- Replace struct `ImageCopyTexture` initialization with
`texture.as_image_copy()` where appropriate

Non uniform transmission samples (#10674)
# Objective

fix webgpu+chrome(119) textureSample in non-uniform control flow error

## Solution

modify view transmission texture sampling to use textureSampleLevel.
there are no mips for the view transmission texture, so this doesn't
change the result, but it removes the need for the samples to be in
uniform control flow.

note: in future we may add a mipchain to the transmission texture to
improve the blur effect. if uniformity analysis hasn't improved, this
would require switching to manual derivative calculations (which is
something we plan to do anyway).

StandardMaterial Light Transmission (#8015)
# Objective

<img width="1920" alt="Screenshot 2023-04-26 at 01 07 34"
src="https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/418473/234467578-0f34187b-5863-4ea1-88e9-7a6bb8ce8da3.png">

This PR adds both diffuse and specular light transmission capabilities
to the `StandardMaterial`, with support for screen space refractions.
This enables realistically representing a wide range of real-world
materials, such as:

  - Glass; (Including frosted glass)
  - Transparent and translucent plastics;
  - Various liquids and gels;
  - Gemstones;
  - Marble;
  - Wax;
  - Paper;
  - Leaves;
  - Porcelain.

Unlike existing support for transparency, light transmission does not
rely on fixed function alpha blending, and therefore works with both
`AlphaMode::Opaque` and `AlphaMode::Mask` materials.

## Solution

- Introduces a number of transmission related fields in the
`StandardMaterial`;
- For specular transmission:
- Adds logic to take a view main texture snapshot after the opaque
phase; (in order to perform screen space refractions)
- Introduces a new `Transmissive3d` phase to the renderer, to which all
meshes with `transmission > 0.0` materials are sent.
- Calculates a light exit point (of the approximate mesh volume) using
`ior` and `thickness` properties
- Samples the snapshot texture with an adaptive number of taps across a
`roughness`-controlled radius enabling “blurry” refractions
- For diffuse transmission:
- Approximates transmitted diffuse light by using a second, flipped +
displaced, diffuse-only Lambertian lobe for each light source.

## To Do

- [x] Figure out where `fresnel_mix()` is taking place, if at all, and
where `dielectric_specular` is being calculated, if at all, and update
them to use the `ior` value (Not a blocker, just a nice-to-have for more
correct BSDF)
- To the _best of my knowledge, this is now taking place, after
964340cdd. The fresnel mix is actually "split" into two parts in our
implementation, one `(1 - fresnel(...))` in the transmission, and
`fresnel()` in the light implementations. A surface with more
reflectance now will produce slightly dimmer transmission towards the
grazing angle, as more of the light gets reflected.
- [x] Add `transmission_texture`
- [x] Add `diffuse_transmission_texture`
- [x] Add `thickness_texture`
- [x] Add `attenuation_distance` and `attenuation_color`
- [x] Connect values to glTF loader
  - [x] `transmission` and `transmission_texture`
  - [x] `thickness` and `thickness_texture`
  - [x] `ior`
- [ ] `diffuse_transmission` and `diffuse_transmission_texture` (needs
upstream support in `gltf` crate, not a blocker)
- [x] Add support for multiple screen space refraction “steps”
- [x] Conditionally create no transmission snapshot texture at all if
`steps == 0`
- [x] Conditionally enable/disable screen space refraction transmission
snapshots
- [x] Read from depth pre-pass to prevent refracting pixels in front of
the light exit point
- [x] Use `interleaved_gradient_noise()` function for sampling blur in a
way that benefits from TAA
- [x] Drill down a TAA `#define`, tweak some aspects of the effect
conditionally based on it
- [x] Remove const array that's crashing under HLSL (unless a new `naga`
release with https://github.com/gfx-rs/naga/pull/2496 comes out before
we merge this)
- [ ] Look into alternatives to the `switch` hack for dynamically
indexing the const array (might not be needed, compilers seem to be
decent at expanding it)
- [ ] Add pipeline keys for gating transmission (do we really want/need
this?)
- [x] Tweak some material field/function names?

`specular_transmission_texture`, `thickness_texture` and
`diffuse_transmission_texture` documentation, I removed it since it was
more confusing than helpful, and will likely be made redundant/will need
to be updated once we have a better infrastructure for preprocessing
assets_

Due to how channels are mapped, you can more efficiently use a single
shared texture image
for configuring the following:

- R - `specular_transmission_texture`
- G - `thickness_texture`
- B - _unused_
- A - `diffuse_transmission_texture`

The `KHR_materials_diffuse_transmission` glTF extension also defines a
`diffuseTransmissionColorTexture`,
that _we don't currently support_. One might choose to pack the
intensity and color textures together,
using RGB for the color and A for the intensity, in which case this
packing advice doesn't really apply.

## Changelog

- Added a new `Transmissive3d` render phase for rendering specular
transmissive materials with screen space refractions
- Added rendering support for transmitted environment map light on the
`StandardMaterial` as a fallback for screen space refractions
- Added `diffuse_transmission`, `specular_transmission`, `thickness`,
`ior`, `attenuation_distance` and `attenuation_color` to the
`StandardMaterial`
- Added `diffuse_transmission_texture`, `specular_transmission_texture`,
`thickness_texture` to the `StandardMaterial`, gated behind a new
`pbr_transmission_textures` cargo feature (off by default, for maximum
hardware compatibility)
- Added `Camera3d::screen_space_specular_transmission_steps` for
controlling the number of “layers of transparency” rendered for
transmissive objects
- Added a `TransmittedShadowReceiver` component for enabling shadows in
(diffusely) transmitted light. (disabled by default, as it requires
carefully setting up the `thickness` to avoid self-shadow artifacts)
- Added support for the `KHR_materials_transmission`,
`KHR_materials_ior` and `KHR_materials_volume` glTF extensions
- Renamed items related to temporal jitter for greater consistency

## Migration Guide

- `SsaoPipelineKey::temporal_noise` has been renamed to
`SsaoPipelineKey::temporal_jitter`
- The `TAA` shader def (controlled by the presence of the
`TemporalAntiAliasSettings` component in the camera) has been replaced
with the `TEMPORAL_JITTER` shader def (controlled by the presence of the
`TemporalJitter` component in the camera)
- `MeshPipelineKey::TAA` has been replaced by
`MeshPipelineKey::TEMPORAL_JITTER`
- The `TEMPORAL_NOISE` shader def has been consolidated with
`TEMPORAL_JITTER`

Fix handling of double_sided for normal maps (#10326)
# Objective

Right now, we flip the `world_normal` in response to `double_sided &&
!is_front`, however when calculating `N` from tangents and the normal
map, we don't flip the normal read from the normal map, which produces
extremely weird results.

## Solution

- Pass `double_sided` and `is_front` flags to the
`apply_normal_mapping()` function and use them to conditionally flip
`Nt`

## Comparison

Note: These are from a custom scene running with the `transmission`
branch, (#8015) I noticed lighting got pretty weird for the back side of
translucent `double_sided` materials whenever I added a normal map.

Image Sampler Improvements (#10254)
# Objective

- Build on the changes in https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/pull/9982
- Use `ImageSamplerDescriptor` as the "public image sampler descriptor"
interface in all places (for consistency)
- Make it possible to configure textures to use the "default" sampler
(as configured in the `DefaultImageSampler` resource)
- Fix a bug introduced in #9982 that prevents configured samplers from
being used in Basis, KTX2, and DDS textures

---

## Migration Guide

- When using the `Image` API, use `ImageSamplerDescriptor` instead of
`wgpu::SamplerDescriptor`
- If writing custom wgpu renderer features that work with `Image`, call
`&image_sampler.as_wgpu()` to convert to a wgpu descriptor.

Use wildcard imports in bevy_pbr (#9847)
# Objective

- the style of import used by bevy guarantees merge conflicts when any
file change
- This is especially true when import lists are large, such as in
`bevy_pbr`
- Merge conflicts are tricky to resolve. This bogs down rendering PRs
and makes contributing to bevy's rendering system more difficult than it
needs to

## Solution

- Use wildcard imports to replace multiline import list in `bevy_pbr`

I suspect this is controversial, but I'd like to hear alternatives.
Because this is one of many papercuts that makes developing render
features near impossible.

Fix fog color being inaccurate (#10226)
# Objective

Fog color was passed to shaders without conversion from sRGB to linear
color space. Because shaders expect colors in linear space this resulted
in wrong color being used. This is most noticeable in open scenes with
dark fog color and clear color set to the same color. In such case
background/clear color (which is properly processed) is going to be
darker than very far objects.

Example:

![image](https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/assets/160391/89b70d97-b2d0-4bc5-80f4-c9e8b8801c4c)

[bevy-fog-color-bug.zip](https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/files/13063718/bevy-fog-color-bug.zip)

## Solution

Add missing conversion of fog color to linear color space.

---

## Changelog

* Fixed conversion of fog color

## Migration Guide

- Colors in `FogSettings` struct (`color` and `directional_light_color`)
are now sent to the GPU in linear space. If you were using
`Color::rgb()`/`Color::rgba()` and would like to retain the previous
colors, you can quickly fix it by switching to
`Color::rgb_linear()`/`Color::rgba_linear()`.

Use “specular occlusion” term to consistently extinguish fresnel on Ambient and Environment Map lights (#10182)
# Objective

Even at `reflectance == 0.0`, our ambient and environment map light
implementations still produce fresnel/specular highlights.

Such a low `reflectance` value lies outside of the physically possible
range and is already used by our directional, point and spot light
implementations (via the `fresnel()` function) to enable artistic
control, effectively disabling the fresnel "look" for non-physically
realistic materials. Since ambient and environment lights use a
different formulation, they were not honoring this same principle.

This PR aims to bring consistency to all light types, offering the same
fresnel extinguishing control to ambient and environment lights.

Thanks to `@nathanf` for [pointing
out](https://discord.com/channels/691052431525675048/743663924229963868/1164083373514440744)
the [Filament docs section about
this](https://google.github.io/filament/Filament.md.html#lighting/occlusion/specularocclusion).

## Solution

- We use [the same
formulation](ffc572728f/crates/bevy_pbr/src/render/pbr_lighting.wgsl (L99))
already used by the `fresnel()` function in `bevy_pbr::lighting` to
modulate the F90, to modulate the specular component of Ambient and
Environment Map lights.

## Comparison

⚠️ **Modified version of the PBR example for demo purposes, that shows
reflectance (_NOT_ part of this PR)** ⚠️

Also, keep in mind this is a very subtle difference (look for the
fresnel highlights on the lower left spheres, you might need to zoom in.

## Changelog

- Ambient and Environment Map lights will now honor values of
`reflectance` that are below the physically possible range (⪅ 0.35) by
extinguishing their fresnel highlights. (Just like point, directional
and spot lights already did.) This allows for more consistent artistic
control and for non-physically realistic looks with all light types.

## Migration Guide

- If Fresnel highlights from Ambient and Environment Map lights are no
longer visible in your materials, make sure you're using a higher,
physically plausible value of `reflectance` (⪆ 0.35).

Bind group entries (#9694)
# Objective

Simplify bind group creation code. alternative to (and based on) #9476

## Solution

- Add a `BindGroupEntries` struct that can transparently be used where
`&[BindGroupEntry<'b>]` is required in BindGroupDescriptors.

Allows constructing the descriptor's entries as:
```rust
render_device.create_bind_group(
    "my_bind_group",
    &my_layout,
    &BindGroupEntries::with_indexes((
        (2, &my_sampler),
        (3, my_uniform),
    )),
);
```

instead of

```rust
render_device.create_bind_group(
    "my_bind_group",
    &my_layout,
    &[
        BindGroupEntry {
            binding: 2,
            resource: BindingResource::Sampler(&my_sampler),
        },
        BindGroupEntry {
            binding: 3,
            resource: my_uniform,
        },
    ],
);
```

or

```rust
render_device.create_bind_group(
    "my_bind_group",
    &my_layout,
    &BindGroupEntries::sequential((&my_sampler, my_uniform)),
);
```

instead of

```rust
render_device.create_bind_group(
    "my_bind_group",
    &my_layout,
    &[
        BindGroupEntry {
            binding: 0,
            resource: BindingResource::Sampler(&my_sampler),
        },
        BindGroupEntry {
            binding: 1,
            resource: my_uniform,
        },
    ],
);
```

the structs has no user facing macros, is tuple-type-based so stack
allocated, and has no noticeable impact on compile time.

- Also adds a `DynamicBindGroupEntries` struct with a similar api that
uses a `Vec` under the hood and allows extending the entries.
- Modifies `RenderDevice::create_bind_group` to take separate arguments
`label`, `layout` and `entries` instead of a `BindGroupDescriptor`
struct. The struct can't be stored due to the internal references, and
with only 3 members arguably does not add enough context to justify
itself.
- Modify the codebase to use the new api and the `BindGroupEntries` /
`DynamicBindGroupEntries` structs where appropriate (whenever the
entries slice contains more than 1 member).

## Migration Guide

- Calls to `RenderDevice::create_bind_group({BindGroupDescriptor {
label, layout, entries })` must be amended to
`RenderDevice::create_bind_group(label, layout, entries)`.
- If `label`s have been specified as `"bind_group_name".into()`, they
need to change to just `"bind_group_name"`. `Some("bind_group_name")`
and `None` will still work, but `Some("bind_group_name")` can optionally
be simplified to just `"bind_group_name"`.

update shader imports (#10180)
# Objective

- bump naga_oil to 0.10
- update shader imports to use rusty syntax

## Migration Guide

naga_oil 0.10 reworks the import mechanism to support more syntax to
make it more rusty, and test for item use before importing to determine
which imports are modules and which are items, which allows:

- use rust-style imports
```
#import bevy_pbr::{
    pbr_functions::{alpha_discard as discard, apply_pbr_lighting}, 
    mesh_bindings,
}
```

- import partial paths:
```
#import part::of::path
...
path::remainder::function();
```
which will call to `part::of::path::remainder::function`

- use fully qualified paths without importing:
```
// #import bevy_pbr::pbr_functions
bevy_pbr::pbr_functions::pbr()
```
- use imported items without qualifying
```
#import bevy_pbr::pbr_functions::pbr
// for backwards compatibility the old style is still supported:
// #import bevy_pbr::pbr_functions pbr
...
pbr()
```

- allows most imported items to end with `_` and numbers (naga_oil#30).
still doesn't allow struct members to end with `_` or numbers but it's
progress.

- the vast majority of existing shader code will work without changes,
but will emit "deprecated" warnings for old-style imports. these can be
suppressed with the `allow-deprecated` feature.

- partly breaks overrides (as far as i'm aware nobody uses these yet) -
now overrides will only be applied if the overriding module is added as
an additional import in the arguments to `Composer::make_naga_module` or
`Composer::add_composable_module`. this is necessary to support
determining whether imports are modules or items.

Variable MeshPipeline View Bind Group Layout (#10156)
# Objective

This PR aims to make it so that we don't accidentally go over
`MAX_TEXTURE_IMAGE_UNITS` (in WebGL) or
`maxSampledTexturesPerShaderStage` (in WebGPU), giving us some extra
leeway to add more view bind group textures.

(This PR is extracted from—and unblocks—#8015)

## Solution

- We replace the existing `view_layout` and `view_layout_multisampled`
pair with an array of 32 bind group layouts, generated ahead of time;
- For now, these layouts cover all the possible combinations of:
`multisampled`, `depth_prepass`, `normal_prepass`,
`motion_vector_prepass` and `deferred_prepass`:
- In the future, as @JMS55 pointed out, we can likely take out
`motion_vector_prepass` and `deferred_prepass`, as these are not really
needed for the mesh pipeline and can use separate pipelines. This would
bring the possible combinations down to 8;
- We can also add more "optional" textures as they become needed,
allowing the engine to scale to a wider variety of use cases in lower
end/web environments (e.g. some apps might just want normal and depth
prepasses, others might only want light probes), while still keeping a
high ceiling for high end native environments where more textures are
supported.
- While preallocating bind group layouts is relatively cheap, the number
of combinations grows exponentially, so we should likely limit ourselves
to something like at most 256–1024 total layouts until we find a better
solution (like generating them lazily)
- To make this mechanism a little bit more explicit/discoverable, so
that compatibility with WebGPU/WebGL is not broken by accident, we add a
`MESH_PIPELINE_VIEW_LAYOUT_SAFE_MAX_TEXTURES` const and warn whenever
the number of textures in the layout crosses it.
- The warning is gated by `#[cfg(debug_assertions)]` and not issued in
release builds;
- We're counting the actual textures in the bind group layout instead of
using some roundabout metric so it should be accurate;
- Right now `MESH_PIPELINE_VIEW_LAYOUT_SAFE_MAX_TEXTURES` is set to 10
in order to leave 6 textures free for other groups;
- Currently there's no combination that would cause us to go over the
limit, but that will change once #8015 lands.

---

## Changelog

- `MeshPipeline` view bind group layouts now vary based on the current
multisampling and prepass states, saving a couple of texture binding
entries when prepasses are not in use.

## Migration Guide

- `MeshPipeline::view_layout` and
`MeshPipeline::view_layout_multisampled` have been replaced with a
private array to accomodate for variable view bind group layouts. To
obtain a view bind group layout for the current pipeline state, use the
new `MeshPipeline::get_view_layout()` or
`MeshPipeline::get_view_layout_from_key()` methods.

allow extensions to StandardMaterial (#7820)
# Objective

allow extending `Material`s (including the built in `StandardMaterial`)
with custom vertex/fragment shaders and additional data, to easily get
pbr lighting with custom modifications, or otherwise extend a base
material.

# Solution

- added `ExtendedMaterial<B: Material, E: MaterialExtension>` which
contains a base material and a user-defined extension.
- added example `extended_material` showing how to use it
- modified AsBindGroup to have "unprepared" functions that return raw
resources / layout entries so that the extended material can combine
them

note: doesn't currently work with array resources, as i can't figure out
how to make the OwnedBindingResource::get_binding() work, as wgpu
requires a `&'a[&'a TextureView]` and i have a `Vec<TextureView>`.

# Migration Guide

manual implementations of `AsBindGroup` will need to be adjusted, the
changes are pretty straightforward and can be seen in the diff for e.g.
the `texture_binding_array` example.

*_PREPASS Shader Def Cleanup (#10136)
# Objective

- This PR aims to make the various `*_PREPASS` shader defs we have
(`NORMAL_PREPASS`, `DEPTH_PREPASS`, `MOTION_VECTORS_PREPASS` AND
`DEFERRED_PREPASS`) easier to use and understand:
- So that their meaning is now consistent across all contexts; (“prepass
X is enabled for the current view”)
  - So that they're also consistently set across all contexts.
- It also aims to enable us to (with a follow up PR) to conditionally
gate the `BindGroupEntry` and `BindGroupLayoutEntry` items associated
with these prepasses, saving us up to 4 texture slots in WebGL
(currently globally limited to 16 per shader, regardless of bind groups)

## Solution

- We now consistently set these from `PrepassPipeline`, the
`MeshPipeline` and the `DeferredLightingPipeline`, we also set their
`MeshPipelineKey`s;
- We introduce `PREPASS_PIPELINE`, `MESH_PIPELINE` and
`DEFERRED_LIGHTING_PIPELINE` that can be used to detect where the code
is running, without overloading the meanings of the prepass shader defs;
- We also gate the WGSL functions in `bevy_pbr::prepass_utils` with
`#ifdef`s for their respective shader defs, so that shader code can
provide a fallback whenever they're not available.
- This allows us to conditionally include the bindings for these prepass
textures (My next PR, which will hopefully unblock #8015)
- @robtfm mentioned [these were being used to prevent accessing the same
binding as read/write in the
prepass](https://discord.com/channels/691052431525675048/743663924229963868/1163270458393759814),
however even after reversing the `#ifndef`s I had no issues running the
code, so perhaps the compiler is already smart enough even without tree
shaking to know they're not being used, thanks to `#ifdef
PREPASS_PIPELINE`?

## Changelog

- Cleaned up WGSL `*_PREPASS` shader defs so they're now consistently
used everywhere;
- Introduced `PREPASS_PIPELINE`, `MESH_PIPELINE` and
`DEFERRED_LIGHTING_PIPELINE` WGSL shader defs for conditionally
compiling logic based the current pipeline;
- WGSL functions from `bevy_pbr::prepass_utils` are now guarded with
`#ifdef` based on the currently enabled prepasses;

## Migration Guide

- When using functions from `bevy_pbr::prepass_utils`
(`prepass_depth()`, `prepass_normal()`, `prepass_motion_vector()`) in
contexts where these prepasses might be disabled, you should now wrap
your calls with the appropriate `#ifdef` guards, (`#ifdef
DEPTH_PREPASS`, `#ifdef NORMAL_PREPASS`, `#ifdef MOTION_VECTOR_PREPASS`)
providing fallback logic where applicable.

pbr shader cleanup (#10105)
# Objective

cleanup some pbr shader code. improve shader stage io consistency and
make pbr.wgsl (probably many people's first foray into bevy shader code)
a little more human-readable. also fix a couple of small issues with
deferred rendering.

## Solution

mesh_vertex_output: 
- rename to forward_io (to align with prepass_io)
- rename `MeshVertexOutput` to `VertexOutput` (to align with prepass_io)
- move `Vertex` from mesh.wgsl into here (to align with prepass_io)

prepass_io: 
- remove `FragmentInput`, use `VertexOutput` directly (to align with
forward_io)
- rename `VertexOutput::clip_position` to `position` (to align with
forward_io)

pbr.wgsl:
- restructure so we don't need `#ifdefs` on the actual entrypoint, use
VertexOutput and FragmentOutput in all cases and use #ifdefs to import
the right struct definitions.
- rearrange to make the flow clearer
- move alpha_discard up from `pbr_functions::pbr` to avoid needing to
call it on some branches and not others
- add a bunch of comments

deferred_lighting:
- move ssao into the `!unlit` block to reflect forward behaviour
correctly
- fix compile error with deferred + premultiply_alpha

## Migration Guide

in custom material shaders:
- `pbr_functions::pbr` no longer calls to
`pbr_functions::alpha_discard`. if you were using the `pbr` function in
a custom shader with alpha mask mode you now also need to call
alpha_discard manually
- rename imports of `bevy_pbr::mesh_vertex_output` to
`bevy_pbr::forward_io`
- rename instances of `MeshVertexOutput` to `VertexOutput`

in custom material prepass shaders:
- rename instances of `VertexOutput::clip_position` to
`VertexOutput::position`

- Add a `color` field to the `WireframeMaterial`
- Use a `WireframeColor` component to configure the color per entity
- Add a `default_color` field to `WireframeConfig` for global wireframes
or wireframes with no specified color.

## Notes

- Most of the docs and the general idea for `WireframeColor` came from
[UberLambda](https://github.com/UberLambda) in #3677 but the code ended
up completely different so I created a separate branch. ~~I'm not sure
how to correctly credit them on this PR.~~ (I re-created the commit but
I added them as co-author in the commit message)

~~Closes https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/pull/3677~~
~~Closes https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/pull/5301~~

~~https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/pull/5314 should be merged before
this PR.~~

Deferred Renderer (#9258)
# Objective

- Add a [Deferred
Renderer](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Deferred_shading) to Bevy.
- This allows subsequent passes to access per pixel material information
before/during shading.
- Accessing this per pixel material information is needed for some
features, like GI. It also makes other features (ex. Decals) simpler to
implement and/or improves their capability. There are multiple
approaches to accomplishing this. The deferred shading approach works
well given the limitations of WebGPU and WebGL2.

Motivation: [I'm working on a GI solution for
Bevy](https://youtu.be/eH1AkL-mwhI)

# Solution
- The deferred renderer is implemented with a prepass and a deferred
lighting pass.
- The prepass renders opaque objects into the Gbuffer attachment
(`Rgba32Uint`). The PBR shader generates a `PbrInput` in mostly the same
way as the forward implementation and then [packs it into the
Gbuffer](ec1465559f/crates/bevy_pbr/src/render/pbr.wgsl (L168)).
- The deferred lighting pass unpacks the `PbrInput` and [feeds it into
the pbr()
function](ec1465559f/crates/bevy_pbr/src/deferred/deferred_lighting.wgsl (L65)),
then outputs the shaded color data.

- There is now a resource
[DefaultOpaqueRendererMethod](ec1465559f/crates/bevy_pbr/src/material.rs (L599))
that can be used to set the default render method for opaque materials.
If materials return `None` from
[opaque_render_method()](ec1465559f/crates/bevy_pbr/src/material.rs (L131))
the `DefaultOpaqueRendererMethod` will be used. Otherwise, custom
materials can also explicitly choose to only support Deferred or Forward
by returning the respective
[OpaqueRendererMethod](ec1465559f/crates/bevy_pbr/src/material.rs (L603))

- Deferred materials can be used seamlessly along with both opaque and
transparent forward rendered materials in the same scene. The [deferred
rendering
example](https://github.com/DGriffin91/bevy/blob/deferred/examples/3d/deferred_rendering.rs)
does this.

- The deferred renderer does not support MSAA. If any deferred materials
are used, MSAA must be disabled. Both TAA and FXAA are supported.

- Deferred rendering supports WebGL2/WebGPU. 

## Custom deferred materials
- Custom materials can support both deferred and forward at the same
time. The
[StandardMaterial](ec1465559f/crates/bevy_pbr/src/render/pbr.wgsl (L166))
does this. So does [this
example](https://github.com/DGriffin91/bevy_glowy_orb_tutorial/blob/deferred/assets/shaders/glowy.wgsl#L56).
- Custom deferred materials that require PBR lighting can create a
`PbrInput`, write it to the deferred GBuffer and let it be rendered by
the `PBRDeferredLightingPlugin`.
- Custom deferred materials that require custom lighting have two
options:
1. Use the base_color channel of the `PbrInput` combined with the
`STANDARD_MATERIAL_FLAGS_UNLIT_BIT` flag.
[Example.](https://github.com/DGriffin91/bevy_glowy_orb_tutorial/blob/deferred/assets/shaders/glowy.wgsl#L56)
(If the unlit bit is set, the base_color is stored as RGB9E5 for extra
precision)
2. A Custom Deferred Lighting pass can be created, either overriding the
default, or running in addition. The a depth buffer is used to limit
rendering to only the required fragments for each deferred lighting
pass. Materials can set their respective depth id via the
[deferred_lighting_pass_id](b79182d2a3/crates/bevy_pbr/src/prepass/prepass_io.wgsl (L95))
attachment. The custom deferred lighting pass plugin can then set [its
corresponding
depth](ec1465559f/crates/bevy_pbr/src/deferred/deferred_lighting.wgsl (L37)).
Then with the lighting pass using
[CompareFunction::Equal](ec1465559f/crates/bevy_pbr/src/deferred/mod.rs (L335)),
only the fragments with a depth that equal the corresponding depth
written in the material will be rendered.

Custom deferred lighting plugins can also be created to render the
StandardMaterial. The default deferred lighting plugin can be bypassed
with `DefaultPlugins.set(PBRDeferredLightingPlugin { bypass: true })`

use Material for wireframes (#5314)
# Objective

- Use the `Material` abstraction for the Wireframes
- Right now this doesn't have many benefits other than simplifying some
of the rendering code
- We can reuse the default vertex shader and avoid rendering
inconsistencies
- The goal is to have a material with a color on each mesh so this
approach will make it easier to implement
- Originally done in https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/pull/5303 but I
decided to split the Material part to it's own PR and then adding
per-entity colors and globally configurable colors will be a much
simpler diff.

## Solution

- Use the new `Material` abstraction for the Wireframes

## Notes

It's possible this isn't ideal since this adds a
`Handle<WireframeMaterial>` to all the meshes compared to the original
approach that didn't need anything. I didn't notice any performance
impact on my machine.

This might be a surprising usage of `Material` at first, because
intuitively you only have one material per mesh, but the way it's
implemented you can have as many different types of materials as you
want on a mesh.

## Migration Guide
`WireframePipeline` was removed. If you were using it directly, please
create an issue explaining your use case.

PCF For DirectionalLight/SpotLight Shadows (#8006)
# Objective

- Improve antialiasing for non-point light shadow edges.
- Very partially addresses
https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/issues/3628.

## Solution

- Implements "The Witness"'s shadow map sampling technique.
  - Ported from @superdump's old branch, all credit to them :)
- Implements "Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare"'s stochastic shadow map
sampling technique when the velocity prepass is enabled, for use with
TAA.
- Uses interleaved gradient noise to generate a random angle, and then
averages 8 samples in a spiral pattern, rotated by the random angle.
- I also tried spatiotemporal blue noise, but it was far too noisy to be
filtered by TAA alone. In the future, we should try spatiotemporal blue
noise + a specialized shadow denoiser such as
https://gpuopen.com/fidelityfx-denoiser/#shadow. This approach would
also be useful for hybrid rasterized applications with raytraced
shadows.
- The COD presentation has an interesting temporal dithering of the
noise for use with temporal supersampling that we should revisit when we
get DLSS/FSR/other TSR.

---

## Changelog

* Added `ShadowFilteringMethod`. Improved directional light and
spotlight shadow edges to be less aliased.

## Migration Guide

* Shadows cast by directional lights or spotlights now have smoother
edges. To revert to the old behavior, add
`ShadowFilteringMethod::Hardware2x2` to your cameras.

Import the second UV map if present in glTF files. (#9992)
Conventionally, the second UV map (`TEXCOORD1`, `UV1`) is used for
lightmap UVs. This commit allows Bevy to import them, so that a custom
shader that applies lightmaps can use those UVs if desired.

Note that this doesn't actually apply lightmaps to Bevy meshes; that
will be a followup. It does, however, open the door to future Bevy
plugins that implement baked global illumination.

## Changelog

### Added

The Bevy glTF loader now imports a second UV channel (`TEXCOORD1`,
`UV1`) from meshes if present. This can be used by custom shaders to
implement lightmapping.

Parallelize extract_meshes (#9966)
# Objective
`extract_meshes` can easily be one of the most expensive operations in
the blocking extract schedule for 3D apps. It also has no fundamentally
serialized parts and can easily be run across multiple threads. Let's
speed it up by parallelizing it!

## Solution
Use the `ThreadLocal<Cell<Vec<T>>>` approach utilized by #7348 in
conjunction with `Query::par_iter` to build a set of thread-local
queues, and collect them after going wide.

## Performance
Using `cargo run --profile stress-test --features trace_tracy --example
many_cubes`. Yellow is this PR. Red is main.

`extract_meshes`:

An average reduction from 1.2ms to 770us is seen, a 41.6% improvement.

Note: this is still not including #9950's changes, so this may actually
result in even faster speedups once that's merged in.

Use EntityHashMap<Entity, T> for render world entity storage for better performance (#9903)
# Objective

- Improve rendering performance, particularly by avoiding the large
system commands costs of using the ECS in the way that the render world
does.

## Solution

- Define `EntityHasher` that calculates a hash from the
`Entity.to_bits()` by `i | (i.wrapping_mul(0x517cc1b727220a95) << 32)`.
`0x517cc1b727220a95` is something like `u64::MAX / N` for N that gives a
value close to π and that works well for hashing. Thanks for @SkiFire13
for the suggestion and to @nicopap for alternative suggestions and
discussion. This approach comes from `rustc-hash` (a.k.a. `FxHasher`)
with some tweaks for the case of hashing an `Entity`. `FxHasher` and
`SeaHasher` were also tested but were significantly slower.
- Define `EntityHashMap` type that uses the `EntityHashser`
- Use `EntityHashMap<Entity, T>` for render world entity storage,
including:
- `RenderMaterialInstances` - contains the `AssetId<M>` of the material
associated with the entity. Also for 2D.
- `RenderMeshInstances` - contains mesh transforms, flags and properties
about mesh entities. Also for 2D.
- `SkinIndices` and `MorphIndices` - contains the skin and morph index
for an entity, respectively
  - `ExtractedSprites`
  - `ExtractedUiNodes`

## Benchmarks

All benchmarks have been conducted on an M1 Max connected to AC power.
The tests are run for 1500 frames. The 1000th frame is captured for
comparison to check for visual regressions. There were none.

### 2D Meshes

`bevymark --benchmark --waves 160 --per-wave 1000 --mode mesh2d`

#### `--ordered-z`

This test spawns the 2D meshes with z incrementing back to front, which
is the ideal arrangement allocation order as it matches the sorted
render order which means lookups have a high cache hit rate.

-39.1% median frame time.

#### Random

This test spawns the 2D meshes with random z. This not only makes the
batching and transparent 2D pass lookups get a lot of cache misses, it
also currently means that the meshes are almost certain to not be
batchable.

+15.1% median frame time.

## Alternatives

- Cart originally suggested trying out `SparseSet<Entity, T>` and indeed
that is slightly faster under ideal conditions. However,
`PassHashMap<Entity, T>` has better worst case performance when data is
randomly distributed, rather than in sorted render order, and does not
have the worst case memory usage that `SparseSet`'s dense `Vec<usize>`
that maps from the `Entity` index to sparse index into `Vec<T>`. This
dense `Vec` has to be as large as the largest Entity index used with the
`SparseSet`.
- I also tested `PassHashMap<u32, T>`, intending to use `Entity.index()`
as the key, but this proved to sometimes be slower and mostly no
different.
- The only outstanding approach that has not been implemented and tested
is to _not_ clear the render world of its entities each frame. That has
its own problems, though they could perhaps be solved.
- Performance-wise, if the entities and their component data were not
cleared, then they would incur table moves on spawn, and should not
thereafter, rather just their component data would be overwritten.
Ideally we would have a neat way of either updating data in-place via
`&mut T` queries, or inserting components if not present. This would
likely be quite cumbersome to have to remember to do everywhere, but
perhaps it only needs to be done in the more performance-sensitive
systems.
- The main problem to solve however is that we want to both maintain a
mapping between main world entities and render world entities, be able
to run the render app and world in parallel with the main app and world
for pipelined rendering, and at the same time be able to spawn entities
in the render world in such a way that those Entity ids do not collide
with those spawned in the main world. This is potentially quite
solvable, but could well be a lot of ECS work to do it in a way that
makes sense.

---

## Changelog

- Changed: Component data for entities to be drawn are no longer stored
on entities in the render world. Instead, data is stored in a
`EntityHashMap<Entity, T>` in various resources. This brings significant
performance benefits due to the way the render app clears entities every
frame. Resources of most interest are `RenderMeshInstances` and
`RenderMaterialInstances`, and their 2D counterparts.

## Migration Guide

Previously the render app extracted mesh entities and their component
data from the main world and stored them as entities and components in
the render world. Now they are extracted into essentially
`EntityHashMap<Entity, T>` where `T` are structs containing an
appropriate group of data. This means that while extract set systems
will continue to run extract queries against the main world they will
store their data in hash maps. Also, systems in later sets will either
need to look up entities in the available resources such as
`RenderMeshInstances`, or maintain their own `EntityHashMap<Entity, T>`
for their own data.

Before:
```rust
fn queue_custom(
    material_meshes: Query<(Entity, &MeshTransforms, &Handle<Mesh>), With<InstanceMaterialData>>,
) {
    ...
    for (entity, mesh_transforms, mesh_handle) in &material_meshes {
        ...
    }
}
```

After:
```rust
fn queue_custom(
    render_mesh_instances: Res<RenderMeshInstances>,
    instance_entities: Query<Entity, With<InstanceMaterialData>>,
) {
    ...
    for entity in &instance_entities {
        let Some(mesh_instance) = render_mesh_instances.get(&entity) else { continue; };
        // The mesh handle in `AssetId<Mesh>` form, and the `MeshTransforms` can now
        // be found in `mesh_instance` which is a `RenderMeshInstance`
        ...
    }
}
```

Directly copy data into uniform buffers (#9865)
# Objective
This is a minimally disruptive version of #8340. I attempted to update
it, but failed due to the scope of the changes added in #8204.

Fixes #8307. Partially addresses #4642. As seen in
https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/issues/8284, we're actually copying
data twice in Prepare stage systems. Once into a CPU-side intermediate
scratch buffer, and once again into a mapped buffer. This is inefficient
and effectively doubles the time spent and memory allocated to run these
systems.

## Solution
Skip the scratch buffer entirely and use
`wgpu::Queue::write_buffer_with` to directly write data into mapped
buffers.

Separately, this also directly uses
`wgpu::Limits::min_uniform_buffer_offset_alignment` to set up the
alignment when writing to the buffers. Partially addressing the issue
raised in #4642.

Storage buffers and the abstractions built on top of
`DynamicUniformBuffer` will need to come in followup PRs.

This may not have a noticeable performance difference in this PR, as the
only first-party systems affected by this are view related, and likely
are not going to be particularly heavy.

Move skin code to a separate module (#9899)
# Objective

mesh.rs is infamously large. We could split off unrelated code.

## Solution

Morph targets are very similar to skinning and have their own module. We
move skinned meshes to an independent module like morph targets and give
the systems similar names.

### Open questions

Should the skinning systems and structs stay public?

## Migration Guide

Renamed skinning systems, resources and components:

- extract_skinned_meshes -> extract_skins
- prepare_skinned_meshes -> prepare_skins
- SkinnedMeshUniform -> SkinUniform
- SkinnedMeshJoints -> SkinIndex

Automatic batching/instancing of draw commands (#9685)
# Objective

- Implement the foundations of automatic batching/instancing of draw
commands as the next step from #89
- NOTE: More performance improvements will come when more data is
managed and bound in ways that do not require rebinding such as mesh,
material, and texture data.

## Solution

- The core idea for batching of draw commands is to check whether any of
the information that has to be passed when encoding a draw command
changes between two things that are being drawn according to the sorted
render phase order. These should be things like the pipeline, bind
groups and their dynamic offsets, index/vertex buffers, and so on.
  - The following assumptions have been made:
- Only entities with prepared assets (pipelines, materials, meshes) are
queued to phases
- View bindings are constant across a phase for a given draw function as
phases are per-view
- `batch_and_prepare_render_phase` is the only system that performs this
batching and has sole responsibility for preparing the per-object data.
As such the mesh binding and dynamic offsets are assumed to only vary as
a result of the `batch_and_prepare_render_phase` system, e.g. due to
having to split data across separate uniform bindings within the same
buffer due to the maximum uniform buffer binding size.
- Implement `GpuArrayBuffer` for `Mesh2dUniform` to store Mesh2dUniform
in arrays in GPU buffers rather than each one being at a dynamic offset
in a uniform buffer. This is the same optimisation that was made for 3D
not long ago.
- Change batch size for a range in `PhaseItem`, adding API for getting
or mutating the range. This is more flexible than a size as the length
of the range can be used in place of the size, but the start and end can
be otherwise whatever is needed.
- Add an optional mesh bind group dynamic offset to `PhaseItem`. This
avoids having to do a massive table move just to insert
`GpuArrayBufferIndex` components.

## Benchmarks

All tests have been run on an M1 Max on AC power. `bevymark` and
`many_cubes` were modified to use 1920x1080 with a scale factor of 1. I
run a script that runs a separate Tracy capture process, and then runs
the bevy example with `--features bevy_ci_testing,trace_tracy` and
`CI_TESTING_CONFIG=../benchmark.ron` with the contents of
`../benchmark.ron`:
```rust
(
    exit_after: Some(1500)
)
```
...in order to run each test for 1500 frames.

The recent changes to `many_cubes` and `bevymark` added reproducible
random number generation so that with the same settings, the same rng
will occur. They also added benchmark modes that use a fixed delta time
for animations. Combined this means that the same frames should be
rendered both on main and on the branch.

The graphs compare main (yellow) to this PR (red).

The mesh and material are the same for all instances. This is basically
the best case for the initial batching implementation as it results in 1
draw for the ~11.7k visible meshes. It gives a ~30% reduction in median
frame time.

The 1000th frame is identical using the flip tool:

This run uses 10 different materials by varying their textures. The
materials are randomly selected, and there is no sorting by material
bind group for opaque 3D so any batching is 'random'. The PR produces a
~5% reduction in median frame time. If we were to sort the opaque phase
by the material bind group, then this should be a lot faster. This
produces about 10.5k draws for the 11.7k visible entities. This makes
sense as randomly selecting from 10 materials gives a chance that two
adjacent entities randomly select the same material and can be batched.

The 1000th frame is identical in flip:

This run varies the material data per instance by randomly-generating
its colour. This is the worst case for batching and that it performs
about the same as `main` is a good thing as it demonstrates that the
batching has minimal overhead when dealing with ~11k visible mesh
entities.

The 1000th frame is identical according to flip:

This spawns 160 waves of 1000 quad meshes that are shaded with
ColorMaterial. Each wave has a different material so 160 waves currently
should result in 160 batches. This results in a 50% reduction in median
frame time.

Capturing a screenshot of the 1000th frame main vs PR gives:

![flip bevymark-main-mesh2d bevymark-batching-mesh2d 67ppd

So they seem to produce the same results. I also double-checked the
number of draws. `main` does 160000 draws, and the PR does 160, as
expected.

This generates 10 textures and generates materials for each of those and
then selects one material per wave. The median frame time is reduced by
50%. Similar to the plain run above, this produces 160 draws on the PR

This creates unique materials per instance by randomly-generating the

This spawns the sprites selecting a texture at random per instance from
the 10 generated textures. This has no significant change vs main and

This sets the sprite colour as being unique per instance. This can still
all be drawn using one batch. There should be no difference but the PR
produces median frame times that are 4% higher. Investigation showed no
clear sources of cost, rather a mix of give and take that should not
happen. It seems like noise in the results.

Refactor rendering systems to use let-else (#9870)
# Objective

Some rendering system did heavy use of `if let`, and could be improved
by using `let else`.

## Solution

- Reduce rightward drift by using let-else over if-let
- Extract value-to-key mappings to their own functions so that the
system is less bloated, easier to understand
- Use a `let` binding instead of untupling in closure argument to reduce
indentation

## Note to reviewers

Enable the "no white space diff" for easier viewing.
In the "Files changed" view, click on the little cog right of the "Jump
to" text, on the row where the "Review changes" button is. then enable
the "Hide whitespace" checkbox and click reload.

Bevy Asset V2 (#8624)
# Bevy Asset V2 Proposal

## Why Does Bevy Need A New Asset System?

Asset pipelines are a central part of the gamedev process. Bevy's
current asset system is missing a number of features that make it
non-viable for many classes of gamedev. After plenty of discussions and
[a long community feedback
period](https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/discussions/3972), we've
identified a number missing features:

* **Asset Preprocessing**: it should be possible to "preprocess" /
"compile" / "crunch" assets at "development time" rather than when the
game starts up. This enables offloading expensive work from deployed
apps, faster asset loading, less runtime memory usage, etc.
* **Per-Asset Loader Settings**: Individual assets cannot define their
own loaders that override the defaults. Additionally, they cannot
provide per-asset settings to their loaders. This is a huge limitation,
as many asset types don't provide all information necessary for Bevy
_inside_ the asset. For example, a raw PNG image says nothing about how
it should be sampled (ex: linear vs nearest).
* **Asset `.meta` files**: assets should have configuration files stored
adjacent to the asset in question, which allows the user to configure
asset-type-specific settings. These settings should be accessible during
the pre-processing phase. Modifying a `.meta` file should trigger a
re-processing / re-load of the asset. It should be possible to configure
asset loaders from the meta file.
* **Processed Asset Hot Reloading**: Changes to processed assets (or
their dependencies) should result in re-processing them and re-loading
the results in live Bevy Apps.
* **Asset Dependency Tracking**: The current bevy_asset has no good way
to wait for asset dependencies to load. It punts this as an exercise for
consumers of the loader apis, which is unreasonable and error prone.
There should be easy, ergonomic ways to wait for assets to load and
block some logic on an asset's entire dependency tree loading.
* **Runtime Asset Loading**: it should be (optionally) possible to load
arbitrary assets dynamically at runtime. This necessitates being able to
deploy and run the asset server alongside Bevy Apps on _all platforms_.
For example, we should be able to invoke the shader compiler at runtime,
stream scenes from sources like the internet, etc. To keep deployed
binaries (and startup times) small, the runtime asset server
configuration should be configurable with different settings compared to
the "pre processor asset server".
* **Multiple Backends**: It should be possible to load assets from
arbitrary sources (filesystems, the internet, remote asset serves, etc).
* **Asset Packing**: It should be possible to deploy assets in
compressed "packs", which makes it easier and more efficient to
distribute assets with Bevy Apps.
* **Asset Handoff**: It should be possible to hold a "live" asset
handle, which correlates to runtime data, without actually holding the
asset in memory. Ex: it must be possible to hold a reference to a GPU
mesh generated from a "mesh asset" without keeping the mesh data in CPU
memory
* **Per-Platform Processed Assets**: Different platforms and app
distributions have different capabilities and requirements. Some
platforms need lower asset resolutions or different asset formats to
operate within the hardware constraints of the platform. It should be
possible to define per-platform asset processing profiles. And it should
be possible to deploy only the assets required for a given platform.

These features have architectural implications that are significant
enough to require a full rewrite. The current Bevy Asset implementation
got us this far, but it can take us no farther. This PR defines a brand
new asset system that implements most of these features, while laying
the foundations for the remaining features to be built.

## Bevy Asset V2

Here is a quick overview of the features introduced in this PR.
* **Asset Preprocessing**: Preprocess assets at development time into
more efficient (and configurable) representations
* **Dependency Aware**: Dependencies required to process an asset are
tracked. If an asset's processed dependency changes, it will be
reprocessed
* **Hot Reprocessing/Reloading**: detect changes to asset source files,
reprocess them if they have changed, and then hot-reload them in Bevy
Apps.
* **Only Process Changes**: Assets are only re-processed when their
source file (or meta file) has changed. This uses hashing and timestamps
to avoid processing assets that haven't changed.
* **Transactional and Reliable**: Uses write-ahead logging (a technique
commonly used by databases) to recover from crashes / forced-exits.
Whenever possible it avoids full-reprocessing / only uncompleted
transactions will be reprocessed. When the processor is running in
parallel with a Bevy App, processor asset writes block Bevy App asset
reads. Reading metadata + asset bytes is guaranteed to be transactional
/ correctly paired.
* **Portable / Run anywhere / Database-free**: The processor does not
rely on an in-memory database (although it uses some database techniques
for reliability). This is important because pretty much all in-memory
databases have unsupported platforms or build complications.
* **Configure Processor Defaults Per File Type**: You can say "use this
processor for all files of this type".
* **Custom Processors**: The `Processor` trait is flexible and
unopinionated. It can be implemented by downstream plugins.
* **LoadAndSave Processors**: Most asset processing scenarios can be
expressed as "run AssetLoader A, save the results using AssetSaver X,
and then load the result using AssetLoader B". For example, load this
png image using `PngImageLoader`, which produces an `Image` asset and
then save it using `CompressedImageSaver` (which also produces an
`Image` asset, but in a compressed format), which takes an `Image` asset
as input. This means if you have an `AssetLoader` for an asset, you are
already half way there! It also means that you can share AssetSavers
across multiple loaders. Because `CompressedImageSaver` accepts Bevy's
generic Image asset as input, it means you can also use it with some
future `JpegImageLoader`.
* **Loader and Saver Settings**: Asset Loaders and Savers can now define
their own settings types, which are passed in as input when an asset is
loaded / saved. Each asset can define its own settings.
* **Asset `.meta` files**: configure asset loaders, their settings,
enable/disable processing, and configure processor settings
* **Runtime Asset Dependency Tracking** Runtime asset dependencies (ex:
if an asset contains a `Handle<Image>`) are tracked by the asset server.
An event is emitted when an asset and all of its dependencies have been
loaded
* **Unprocessed Asset Loading**: Assets do not require preprocessing.
They can be loaded directly. A processed asset is just a "normal" asset
with some extra metadata. Asset Loaders don't need to know or care about
whether or not an asset was processed.
* **Async Asset IO**: Asset readers/writers use async non-blocking
interfaces. Note that because Rust doesn't yet support async traits,
there is a bit of manual Boxing / Future boilerplate. This will
hopefully be removed in the near future when Rust gets async traits.
* **Pluggable Asset Readers and Writers**: Arbitrary asset source
readers/writers are supported, both by the processor and the asset
server.
* **Better Asset Handles**
* **Single Arc Tree**: Asset Handles now use a single arc tree that
represents the lifetime of the asset. This makes their implementation
simpler, more efficient, and allows us to cheaply attach metadata to
handles. Ex: the AssetPath of a handle is now directly accessible on the
handle itself!
* **Const Typed Handles**: typed handles can be constructed in a const
context. No more weird "const untyped converted to typed at runtime"
patterns!
* **Handles and Ids are Smaller / Faster To Hash / Compare**: Typed
`Handle<T>` is now much smaller in memory and `AssetId<T>` is even
smaller.
* **Weak Handle Usage Reduction**: In general Handles are now considered
to be "strong". Bevy features that previously used "weak `Handle<T>`"
have been ported to `AssetId<T>`, which makes it statically clear that
the features do not hold strong handles (while retaining strong type
information). Currently Handle::Weak still exists, but it is very
possible that we can remove that entirely.
* **Efficient / Dense Asset Ids**: Assets now have efficient dense
runtime asset ids, which means we can avoid expensive hash lookups.
Assets are stored in Vecs instead of HashMaps. There are now typed and
untyped ids, which means we no longer need to store dynamic type
information in the ID for typed handles. "AssetPathId" (which was a
nightmare from a performance and correctness standpoint) has been
entirely removed in favor of dense ids (which are retrieved for a path
on load)
* **Direct Asset Loading, with Dependency Tracking**: Assets that are
defined at runtime can still have their dependencies tracked by the
Asset Server (ex: if you create a material at runtime, you can still
wait for its textures to load). This is accomplished via the (currently
optional) "asset dependency visitor" trait. This system can also be used
to define a set of assets to load, then wait for those assets to load.
* **Async folder loading**: Folder loading also uses this system and
immediately returns a handle to the LoadedFolder asset, which means
folder loading no longer blocks on directory traversals.
* **Improved Loader Interface**: Loaders now have a specific "top level
asset type", which makes returning the top-level asset simpler and
statically typed.
* **Basic Image Settings and Processing**: Image assets can now be
processed into the gpu-friendly Basic Universal format. The ImageLoader
now has a setting to define what format the image should be loaded as.
Note that this is just a minimal MVP ... plenty of additional work to do
here. To demo this, enable the `basis-universal` feature and turn on
asset processing.
* **Simpler Audio Play / AudioSink API**: Asset handle providers are
cloneable, which means the Audio resource can mint its own handles. This
means you can now do `let sink_handle = audio.play(music)` instead of
`let sink_handle = audio_sinks.get_handle(audio.play(music))`. Note that
this might still be replaced by
https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/pull/8424.
**Removed Handle Casting From Engine Features**: Ex: FontAtlases no
longer use casting between handle types

## Using The New Asset System

### Normal Unprocessed Asset Loading

By default the `AssetPlugin` does not use processing. It behaves pretty
much the same way as the old system.

If you are defining a custom asset, first derive `Asset`:

```rust
#[derive(Asset)]
struct Thing {
    value: String,
}
```

Initialize the asset:
```rust
app.init_asset:<Thing>()
```

Implement a new `AssetLoader` for it:

```rust
#[derive(Default)]
struct ThingLoader;

#[derive(Serialize, Deserialize, Default)]
pub struct ThingSettings {
    some_setting: bool,
}

impl AssetLoader for ThingLoader {
    type Asset = Thing;
    type Settings = ThingSettings;

    fn load<'a>(
        &'a self,
        reader: &'a mut Reader,
        settings: &'a ThingSettings,
        load_context: &'a mut LoadContext,
    ) -> BoxedFuture<'a, Result<Thing, anyhow::Error>> {
        Box::pin(async move {
            let mut bytes = Vec::new();
            reader.read_to_end(&mut bytes).await?;
            // convert bytes to value somehow
            Ok(Thing {
                value 
            })
        })
    }

    fn extensions(&self) -> &[&str] {
        &["thing"]
    }
}
```

Note that this interface will get much cleaner once Rust gets support
for async traits. `Reader` is an async futures_io::AsyncRead. You can
stream bytes as they come in or read them all into a `Vec<u8>`,
depending on the context. You can use `let handle =
load_context.load(path)` to kick off a dependency load, retrieve a
handle, and register the dependency for the asset.

Then just register the loader in your Bevy app:

```rust
app.init_asset_loader::<ThingLoader>()
```

Now just add your `Thing` asset files into the `assets` folder and load
them like this:

```rust
fn system(asset_server: Res<AssetServer>) {
    let handle = Handle<Thing> = asset_server.load("cool.thing");
}
```

You can check load states directly via the asset server:

```rust
if asset_server.load_state(&handle) == LoadState::Loaded { }
```

You can also listen for events:

```rust
fn system(mut events: EventReader<AssetEvent<Thing>>, handle: Res<SomeThingHandle>) {
    for event in events.iter() {
        if event.is_loaded_with_dependencies(&handle) {
        }
    }
}
```

Note the new `AssetEvent::LoadedWithDependencies`, which only fires when
the asset is loaded _and_ all dependencies (and their dependencies) have
loaded.

Unlike the old asset system, for a given asset path all `Handle<T>`
values point to the same underlying Arc. This means Handles can cheaply
hold more asset information, such as the AssetPath:

```rust
// prints the AssetPath of the handle
info!("{:?}", handle.path())
```

### Processed Assets

Asset processing can be enabled via the `AssetPlugin`. When developing
Bevy Apps with processed assets, do this:

```rust
app.add_plugins(DefaultPlugins.set(AssetPlugin::processed_dev()))
```

This runs the `AssetProcessor` in the background with hot-reloading. It
reads assets from the `assets` folder, processes them, and writes them
to the `.imported_assets` folder. Asset loads in the Bevy App will wait
for a processed version of the asset to become available. If an asset in
the `assets` folder changes, it will be reprocessed and hot-reloaded in
the Bevy App.

When deploying processed Bevy apps, do this:

```rust
app.add_plugins(DefaultPlugins.set(AssetPlugin::processed()))
```

This does not run the `AssetProcessor` in the background. It behaves
like `AssetPlugin::unprocessed()`, but reads assets from
`.imported_assets`.

When the `AssetProcessor` is running, it will populate sibling `.meta`
files for assets in the `assets` folder. Meta files for assets that do
not have a processor configured look like this:

```rust
(
    meta_format_version: "1.0",
    asset: Load(
        loader: "bevy_render::texture::image_loader::ImageLoader",
        settings: (
            format: FromExtension,
        ),
    ),
)
```

This is metadata for an image asset. For example, if you have
`assets/my_sprite.png`, this could be the metadata stored at
`assets/my_sprite.png.meta`. Meta files are totally optional. If no
metadata exists, the default settings will be used.

In short, this file says "load this asset with the ImageLoader and use
the file extension to determine the image type". This type of meta file
is supported in all AssetPlugin modes. If in `Unprocessed` mode, the
asset (with the meta settings) will be loaded directly. If in
`ProcessedDev` mode, the asset file will be copied directly to the
`.imported_assets` folder. The meta will also be copied directly to the
`.imported_assets` folder, but with one addition:

```rust
(
    meta_format_version: "1.0",
    processed_info: Some((
        hash: 12415480888597742505,
        full_hash: 14344495437905856884,
        process_dependencies: [],
    )),
    asset: Load(
        loader: "bevy_render::texture::image_loader::ImageLoader",
        settings: (
            format: FromExtension,
        ),
    ),
)
```

`processed_info` contains `hash` (a direct hash of the asset and meta
bytes), `full_hash` (a hash of `hash` and the hashes of all
`process_dependencies`), and `process_dependencies` (the `path` and
`full_hash` of every process_dependency). A "process dependency" is an
asset dependency that is _directly_ used when processing the asset.
Images do not have process dependencies, so this is empty.

When the processor is enabled, you can use the `Process` metadata
config:

```rust
(
    meta_format_version: "1.0",
    asset: Process(
        processor: "bevy_asset::processor::process::LoadAndSave<bevy_render::texture::image_loader::ImageLoader, bevy_render::texture::compressed_image_saver::CompressedImageSaver>",
        settings: (
            loader_settings: (
                format: FromExtension,
            ),
            saver_settings: (
                generate_mipmaps: true,
            ),
        ),
    ),
)
```

This configures the asset to use the `LoadAndSave` processor, which runs
an AssetLoader and feeds the result into an AssetSaver (which saves the
given Asset and defines a loader to load it with). (for terseness
LoadAndSave will likely get a shorter/friendlier type name when [Stable
Type Paths](#7184) lands). `LoadAndSave` is likely to be the most common
processor type, but arbitrary processors are supported.

`CompressedImageSaver` saves an `Image` in the Basis Universal format
and configures the ImageLoader to load it as basis universal. The
`AssetProcessor` will read this meta, run it through the LoadAndSave
processor, and write the basis-universal version of the image to
`.imported_assets`. The final metadata will look like this:

```rust
(
    meta_format_version: "1.0",
    processed_info: Some((
        hash: 905599590923828066,
        full_hash: 9948823010183819117,
        process_dependencies: [],
    )),
    asset: Load(
        loader: "bevy_render::texture::image_loader::ImageLoader",
        settings: (
            format: Format(Basis),
        ),
    ),
)
```

To try basis-universal processing out in Bevy examples, (for example
`sprite.rs`), change `add_plugins(DefaultPlugins)` to
`add_plugins(DefaultPlugins.set(AssetPlugin::processed_dev()))` and run
with the `basis-universal` feature enabled: `cargo run
--features=basis-universal --example sprite`.

To create a custom processor, there are two main paths:
1. Use the `LoadAndSave` processor with an existing `AssetLoader`.
Implement the `AssetSaver` trait, register the processor using
`asset_processor.register_processor::<LoadAndSave<ImageLoader,
CompressedImageSaver>>(image_saver.into())`.
2. Implement the `Process` trait directly and register it using:
`asset_processor.register_processor(thing_processor)`.

You can configure default processors for file extensions like this:

```rust
asset_processor.set_default_processor::<ThingProcessor>("thing")
```

There is one more metadata type to be aware of:

```rust
(
    meta_format_version: "1.0",
    asset: Ignore,
)
```

This will ignore the asset during processing / prevent it from being
written to `.imported_assets`.

The AssetProcessor stores a transaction log at `.imported_assets/log`
and uses it to gracefully recover from unexpected stops. This means you
can force-quit the processor (and Bevy Apps running the processor in
parallel) at arbitrary times!

`.imported_assets` is "local state". It should _not_ be checked into
source control. It should also be considered "read only". In practice,
you _can_ modify processed assets and processed metadata if you really
need to test something. But those modifications will not be represented
in the hashes of the assets, so the processed state will be "out of
sync" with the source assets. The processor _will not_ fix this for you.
Either revert the change after you have tested it, or delete the
processed files so they can be re-populated.

## Open Questions

There are a number of open questions to be discussed. We should decide
if they need to be addressed in this PR and if so, how we will address
them:

### Implied Dependencies vs Dependency Enumeration

There are currently two ways to populate asset dependencies:
* **Implied via AssetLoaders**: if an AssetLoader loads an asset (and
retrieves a handle), a dependency is added to the list.
* **Explicit via the optional Asset::visit_dependencies**: if
`server.load_asset(my_asset)` is called, it will call
`my_asset.visit_dependencies`, which will grab dependencies that have
been manually defined for the asset via the Asset trait impl (which can
be derived).

This means that defining explicit dependencies is optional for "loaded
assets". And the list of dependencies is always accurate because loaders
can only produce Handles if they register dependencies. If an asset was
loaded with an AssetLoader, it only uses the implied dependencies. If an
asset was created at runtime and added with
`asset_server.load_asset(MyAsset)`, it will use
`Asset::visit_dependencies`.

However this can create a behavior mismatch between loaded assets and
equivalent "created at runtime" assets if `Assets::visit_dependencies`
doesn't exactly match the dependencies produced by the AssetLoader. This
behavior mismatch can be resolved by completely removing "implied loader
dependencies" and requiring `Asset::visit_dependencies` to supply
dependency data. But this creates two problems:
* It makes defining loaded assets harder and more error prone: Devs must
remember to manually annotate asset dependencies with `#[dependency]`
when deriving `Asset`. For more complicated assets (such as scenes), the
derive likely wouldn't be sufficient and a manual `visit_dependencies`
impl would be required.
* Removes the ability to immediately kick off dependency loads: When
AssetLoaders retrieve a Handle, they also immediately kick off an asset
load for the handle, which means it can start loading in parallel
_before_ the asset finishes loading. For large assets, this could be
significant. (although this could be mitigated for processed assets if
we store dependencies in the processed meta file and load them ahead of
time)

### Eager ProcessorDev Asset Loading

I made a controversial call in the interest of fast startup times ("time
to first pixel") for the "processor dev mode configuration". When
initializing the AssetProcessor, current processed versions of unchanged
assets are yielded immediately, even if their dependencies haven't been
checked yet for reprocessing. This means that
non-current-state-of-filesystem-but-previously-valid assets might be
returned to the App first, then hot-reloaded if/when their dependencies
change and the asset is reprocessed.

Is this behavior desirable? There is largely one alternative: do not
yield an asset from the processor to the app until all of its
dependencies have been checked for changes. In some common cases (load
dependency has not changed since last run) this will increase startup
time. The main question is "by how much" and is that slower startup time
worth it in the interest of only yielding assets that are true to the
current state of the filesystem. Should this be configurable? I'm
starting to think we should only yield an asset after its (historical)
dependencies have been checked for changes + processed as necessary, but
I'm curious what you all think.

### Paths Are Currently The Only Canonical ID / Do We Want Asset UUIDs?

In this implementation AssetPaths are the only canonical asset
identifier (just like the previous Bevy Asset system and Godot). Moving
assets will result in re-scans (and currently reprocessing, although
reprocessing can easily be avoided with some changes). Asset
renames/moves will break code and assets that rely on specific paths,
unless those paths are fixed up.

Do we want / need "stable asset uuids"? Introducing them is very
possible:
1. Generate a UUID and include it in .meta files
2. Support UUID in AssetPath
3. Generate "asset indices" which are loaded on startup and map UUIDs to
paths.
4 (maybe). Consider only supporting UUIDs for processed assets so we can
generate quick-to-load indices instead of scanning meta files.

The main "pro" is that assets referencing UUIDs don't need to be
migrated when a path changes. The main "con" is that UUIDs cannot be
"lazily resolved" like paths. They need a full view of all assets to
answer the question "does this UUID exist". Which means UUIDs require
the AssetProcessor to fully finish startup scans before saying an asset
doesnt exist. And they essentially require asset pre-processing to use
in apps, because scanning all asset metadata files at runtime to resolve
a UUID is not viable for medium-to-large apps. It really requires a
pre-generated UUID index, which must be loaded before querying for
assets.

I personally think this should be investigated in a separate PR. Paths
aren't going anywhere ... _everyone_ uses filesystems (and
filesystem-like apis) to manage their asset source files. I consider
them permanent canonical asset information. Additionally, they behave
well for both processed and unprocessed asset modes. Given that Bevy is
supporting both, this feels like the right canonical ID to start with.
UUIDS (and maybe even other indexed-identifier types) can be added later
as necessary.

### Folder / File Naming Conventions

All asset processing config currently lives in the `.imported_assets`
folder. The processor transaction log is in `.imported_assets/log`.
Processed assets are added to `.imported_assets/Default`, which will
make migrating to processed asset profiles (ex: a
`.imported_assets/Mobile` profile) a non-breaking change. It also allows
us to create top-level files like `.imported_assets/log` without it
being interpreted as an asset. Meta files currently have a `.meta`
suffix. Do we like these names and conventions?

### Should the `AssetPlugin::processed_dev` configuration enable
`watch_for_changes` automatically?

Currently it does (which I think makes sense), but it does make it the
only configuration that enables watch_for_changes by default.

### Discuss on_loaded High Level Interface:

This PR includes a very rough "proof of concept" `on_loaded` system
adapter that uses the `LoadedWithDependencies` event in combination with
`asset_server.load_asset` dependency tracking to support this pattern

```rust
fn main() {
    App::new()
        .init_asset::<MyAssets>()
        .add_systems(Update, on_loaded(create_array_texture))
        .run();
}

#[derive(Asset, Clone)]
struct MyAssets {
    #[dependency]
    picture_of_my_cat: Handle<Image>,
    #[dependency]
    picture_of_my_other_cat: Handle<Image>,
}

impl FromWorld for ArrayTexture {
    fn from_world(world: &mut World) -> Self {
        picture_of_my_cat: server.load("meow.png"),
        picture_of_my_other_cat: server.load("meeeeeeeow.png"),
    }
}

fn spawn_cat(In(my_assets): In<MyAssets>, mut commands: Commands) {
    commands.spawn(SpriteBundle {
        texture: my_assets.picture_of_my_cat.clone(),  
        ..default()
    });
    
    commands.spawn(SpriteBundle {
        texture: my_assets.picture_of_my_other_cat.clone(),  
        ..default()
    });
}

```

The implementation is _very_ rough. And it is currently unsafe because
`bevy_ecs` doesn't expose some internals to do this safely from inside
`bevy_asset`. There are plenty of unanswered questions like:
* "do we add a Loadable" derive? (effectively automate the FromWorld
implementation above)
* Should `MyAssets` even be an Asset? (largely implemented this way
because it elegantly builds on `server.load_asset(MyAsset { .. })`
dependency tracking).

We should think hard about what our ideal API looks like (and if this is
a pattern we want to support). Not necessarily something we need to
solve in this PR. The current `on_loaded` impl should probably be
removed from this PR before merging.

## Clarifying Questions

### What about Assets as Entities?

This Bevy Asset V2 proposal implementation initially stored Assets as
ECS Entities. Instead of `AssetId<T>` + the `Assets<T>` resource it used
`Entity` as the asset id and Asset values were just ECS components.
There are plenty of compelling reasons to do this:
1. Easier to inline assets in Bevy Scenes (as they are "just" normal
entities + components)
2. More flexible queries: use the power of the ECS to filter assets (ex:
`Query<Mesh, With<Tree>>`).
3. Extensible. Users can add arbitrary component data to assets.
4. Things like "component visualization tools" work out of the box to
visualize asset data.

However Assets as Entities has a ton of caveats right now:
* We need to be able to allocate entity ids without a direct World
reference (aka rework id allocator in Entities ... i worked around this
in my prototypes by just pre allocating big chunks of entities)
* We want asset change events in addition to ECS change tracking ... how
do we populate them when mutations can come from anywhere? Do we use
Changed queries? This would require iterating over the change data for
all assets every frame. Is this acceptable or should we implement a new
"event based" component change detection option?
* Reconciling manually created assets with asset-system managed assets
has some nuance (ex: are they "loaded" / do they also have that
component metadata?)
* "how do we handle "static" / default entity handles" (ties in to the
Entity Indices discussion:
https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/discussions/8319). This is necessary
for things like "built in" assets and default handles in things like
SpriteBundle.
* Storing asset information as a component makes it easy to "invalidate"
asset state by removing the component (or forcing modifications).
Ideally we have ways to lock this down (some combination of Rust type
privacy and ECS validation)

In practice, how we store and identify assets is a reasonably
superficial change (porting off of Assets as Entities and implementing
dedicated storage + ids took less than a day). So once we sort out the
remaining challenges the flip should be straightforward. Additionally, I
do still have "Assets as Entities" in my commit history, so we can reuse
that work. I personally think "assets as entities" is a good endgame,
but it also doesn't provide _significant_ value at the moment and it
certainly isn't ready yet with the current state of things.

### Why not Distill?

[Distill](https://github.com/amethyst/distill) is a high quality fully
featured asset system built in Rust. It is very natural to ask "why not
just use Distill?".

It is also worth calling out that for awhile, [we planned on adopting
Distill / I signed off on
it](https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/issues/708).

However I think Bevy has a number of constraints that make Distill
adoption suboptimal:
* **Architectural Simplicity:**
* Distill's processor requires an in-memory database (lmdb) and RPC
networked API (using Cap'n Proto). Each of these introduces API
complexity that increases maintenance burden and "code grokability".
Ignoring tests, documentation, and examples, Distill has 24,237 lines of
Rust code (including generated code for RPC + database interactions). If
you ignore generated code, it has 11,499 lines.
* Bevy builds the AssetProcessor and AssetServer using pluggable
AssetReader/AssetWriter Rust traits with simple io interfaces. They do
not necessitate databases or RPC interfaces (although Readers/Writers
could use them if that is desired). Bevy Asset V2 (at the time of
writing this PR) is 5,384 lines of Rust code (ignoring tests,
documentation, and examples). Grain of salt: Distill does have more
features currently (ex: Asset Packing, GUIDS, remote-out-of-process
asset processor). I do plan to implement these features in Bevy Asset V2
and I personally highly doubt they will meaningfully close the 6115
lines-of-code gap.
* This complexity gap (which while illustrated by lines of code, is much
bigger than just that) is noteworthy to me. Bevy should be hackable and
there are pillars of Distill that are very hard to understand and
extend. This is a matter of opinion (and Bevy Asset V2 also has
complicated areas), but I think Bevy Asset V2 is much more approachable
for the average developer.
* Necessary disclaimer: counting lines of code is an extremely rough
complexity metric. Read the code and form your own opinions.
* **Optional Asset Processing:** Not all Bevy Apps (or Bevy App
developers) need / want asset preprocessing. Processing increases the
complexity of the development environment by introducing things like
meta files, imported asset storage, running processors in the
background, waiting for processing to finish, etc. Distill _requires_
preprocessing to work. With Bevy Asset V2 processing is fully opt-in.
The AssetServer isn't directly aware of asset processors at all.
AssetLoaders only care about converting bytes to runtime Assets ... they
don't know or care if the bytes were pre-processed or not. Processing is
"elegantly" (forgive my self-congratulatory phrasing) layered on top and
builds on the existing Asset system primitives.
* **Direct Filesystem Access to Processed Asset State:** Distill stores
processed assets in a database. This makes debugging / inspecting the
processed outputs harder (either requires special tooling to query the
database or they need to be "deployed" to be inspected). Bevy Asset V2,
on the other hand, stores processed assets in the filesystem (by default
... this is configurable). This makes interacting with the processed
state more natural. Note that both Godot and Unity's new asset system
store processed assets in the filesystem.
* **Portability**: Because Distill's processor uses lmdb and RPC
networking, it cannot be run on certain platforms (ex: lmdb is a
non-rust dependency that cannot run on the web, some platforms don't
support running network servers). Bevy should be able to process assets
everywhere (ex: run the Bevy Editor on the web, compile + process
shaders on mobile, etc). Distill does partially mitigate this problem by
supporting "streaming" assets via the RPC protocol, but this is not a
full solve from my perspective. And Bevy Asset V2 can (in theory) also
stream assets (without requiring RPC, although this isn't implemented
yet)

Note that I _do_ still think Distill would be a solid asset system for
Bevy. But I think the approach in this PR is a better solve for Bevy's
specific "asset system requirements".

### Doesn't async-fs just shim requests to "sync" `std::fs`? What is the
point?

"True async file io" has limited / spotty platform support. async-fs
(and the rust async ecosystem generally ... ex Tokio) currently use
async wrappers over std::fs that offload blocking requests to separate
threads. This may feel unsatisfying, but it _does_ still provide value
because it prevents our task pools from blocking on file system
operations (which would prevent progress when there are many tasks to
do, but all threads in a pool are currently blocking on file system
ops).

Additionally, using async APIs for our AssetReaders and AssetWriters
also provides value because we can later add support for "true async
file io" for platforms that support it. _And_ we can implement other
"true async io" asset backends (such as networked asset io).

## Draft TODO

- [x] Fill in missing filesystem event APIs: file removed event (which
is expressed as dangling RenameFrom events in some cases), file/folder
renamed event
- [x] Assets without loaders are not moved to the processed folder. This
breaks things like referenced `.bin` files for GLTFs. This should be
configurable per-non-asset-type.
- [x] Initial implementation of Reflect and FromReflect for Handle. The
"deserialization" parity bar is low here as this only worked with static
UUIDs in the old impl ... this is a non-trivial problem. Either we add a
Handle::AssetPath variant that gets "upgraded" to a strong handle on
scene load or we use a separate AssetRef type for Bevy scenes (which is
converted to a runtime Handle on load). This deserves its own discussion
in a different pr.
- [x] Populate read_asset_bytes hash when run by the processor (a bit of
a special case .. when run by the processor the processed meta will
contain the hash so we don't need to compute it on the spot, but we
don't want/need to read the meta when run by the main AssetServer)
- [x] Delay hot reloading: currently filesystem events are handled
immediately, which creates timing issues in some cases. For example hot
reloading images can sometimes break because the image isn't finished
writing. We should add a delay, likely similar to the [implementation in
this PR](https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/pull/8503).
- [x] Port old platform-specific AssetIo implementations to the new
AssetReader interface (currently missing Android and web)
- [x] Resolve on_loaded unsafety (either by removing the API entirely or
removing the unsafe)
- [x]  Runtime loader setting overrides
- [x] Remove remaining unwraps that should be error-handled. There are
number of TODOs here
- [x] Pretty AssetPath Display impl
- [x] Document more APIs
- [x] Resolve spurious "reloading because it has changed" events (to
repro run load_gltf with `processed_dev()`)
- [x] load_dependency hot reloading currently only works for processed
assets. If processing is disabled, load_dependency changes are not hot
reloaded.
- [x] Replace AssetInfo dependency load/fail counters with
`loading_dependencies: HashSet<UntypedAssetId>` to prevent reloads from
(potentially) breaking counters. Storing this will also enable
"dependency reloaded" events (see [Next Steps](#next-steps))
- [x] Re-add filesystem watcher cargo feature gate (currently it is not
optional)
- [ ] Migration Guide
- [ ] Changelog

## Followup TODO

- [ ] Replace "eager unchanged processed asset loading" behavior with
"don't returned unchanged processed asset until dependencies have been
checked".
- [ ] Add true `Ignore` AssetAction that does not copy the asset to the
imported_assets folder.
- [ ] Finish "live asset unloading" (ex: free up CPU asset memory after
uploading an image to the GPU), rethink RenderAssets, and port renderer
features. The `Assets` collection uses `Option<T>` for asset storage to
support its removal. (1) the Option might not actually be necessary ...
might be able to just remove from the collection entirely (2) need to
finalize removal apis
- [ ] Try replacing the "channel based" asset id recycling with
something a bit more efficient (ex: we might be able to use raw atomic
ints with some cleverness)
- [ ] Consider adding UUIDs to processed assets (scoped just to helping
identify moved assets ... not exposed to load queries ... see [Next
Steps](#next-steps))
- [ ] Store "last modified" source asset and meta timestamps in
processed meta files to enable skipping expensive hashing when the file
wasn't changed
- [ ] Fix "slow loop" handle drop fix 
- [ ] Migrate to TypeName
- [x] Handle "loader preregistration". See #9429

## Next Steps

* **Configurable per-type defaults for AssetMeta**: It should be
possible to add configuration like "all png image meta should default to
using nearest sampling" (currently this hard-coded per-loader/processor
Settings::default() impls). Also see the "Folder Meta" bullet point.
* **Avoid Reprocessing on Asset Renames / Moves**: See the "canonical
asset ids" discussion in [Open Questions](#open-questions) and the
relevant bullet point in [Draft TODO](#draft-todo). Even without
canonical ids, folder renames could avoid reprocessing in some cases.
* **Multiple Asset Sources**: Expand AssetPath to support "asset source
names" and support multiple AssetReaders in the asset server (ex:
`webserver://some_path/image.png` backed by an Http webserver
AssetReader). The "default" asset reader would use normal
`some_path/image.png` paths. Ideally this works in combination with
multiple AssetWatchers for hot-reloading
* **Stable Type Names**: this pr removes the TypeUuid requirement from
assets in favor of `std::any::type_name`. This makes defining assets
easier (no need to generate a new uuid / use weird proc macro syntax).
It also makes reading meta files easier (because things have "friendly
names"). We also use type names for components in scene files. If they
are good enough for components, they are good enough for assets. And
consistency across Bevy pillars is desirable. However,
`std::any::type_name` is not guaranteed to be stable (although in
practice it is). We've developed a [stable type
path](https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/pull/7184) to resolve this,
which should be adopted when it is ready.
* **Command Line Interface**: It should be possible to run the asset
processor in a separate process from the command line. This will also
require building a network-server-backed AssetReader to communicate
between the app and the processor. We've been planning to build a "bevy
cli" for awhile. This seems like a good excuse to build it.
* **Asset Packing**: This is largely an additive feature, so it made
sense to me to punt this until we've laid the foundations in this PR.
* **Per-Platform Processed Assets**: It should be possible to generate
assets for multiple platforms by supporting multiple "processor
profiles" per asset (ex: compress with format X on PC and Y on iOS). I
think there should probably be arbitrary "profiles" (which can be
separate from actual platforms), which are then assigned to a given
platform when generating the final asset distribution for that platform.
Ex: maybe devs want a "Mobile" profile that is shared between iOS and
Android. Or a "LowEnd" profile shared between web and mobile.
* **Versioning and Migrations**: Assets, Loaders, Savers, and Processors
need to have versions to determine if their schema is valid. If an asset
/ loader version is incompatible with the current version expected at
runtime, the processor should be able to migrate them. I think we should
try using Bevy Reflect for this, as it would allow us to load the old
version as a dynamic Reflect type without actually having the old Rust
type. It would also allow us to define "patches" to migrate between
versions (Bevy Reflect devs are currently working on patching). The
`.meta` file already has its own format version. Migrating that to new
versions should also be possible.
* **Real Copy-on-write AssetPaths**: Rust's actual Cow (clone-on-write
type) currently used by AssetPath can still result in String clones that
aren't actually necessary (cloning an Owned Cow clones the contents).
Bevy's asset system requires cloning AssetPaths in a number of places,
which result in actual clones of the internal Strings. This is not
efficient. AssetPath internals should be reworked to exhibit truer
cow-like-behavior that reduces String clones to the absolute minimum.
* **Consider processor-less processing**: In theory the AssetServer
could run processors "inline" even if the background AssetProcessor is
disabled. If we decide this is actually desirable, we could add this.
But I don't think its a priority in the short or medium term.
* **Pre-emptive dependency loading**: We could encode dependencies in
processed meta files, which could then be used by the Asset Server to
kick of dependency loads as early as possible (prior to starting the
actual asset load). Is this desirable? How much time would this save in
practice?
* **Optimize Processor With UntypedAssetIds**: The processor exclusively
uses AssetPath to identify assets currently. It might be possible to
swap these out for UntypedAssetIds in some places, which are smaller /
cheaper to hash and compare.
* **One to Many Asset Processing**: An asset source file that produces
many assets currently must be processed into a single "processed" asset
source. If labeled assets can be written separately they can each have
their own configured savers _and_ they could be loaded more granularly.
Definitely worth exploring!
* **Automatically Track "Runtime-only" Asset Dependencies**: Right now,
tracking "created at runtime" asset dependencies requires adding them
via `asset_server.load_asset(StandardMaterial::default())`. I think with
some cleverness we could also do this for
`materials.add(StandardMaterial::default())`, making tracking work
"everywhere". There are challenges here relating to change detection /
ensuring the server is made aware of dependency changes. This could be
expensive in some cases.
* **"Dependency Changed" events**: Some assets have runtime artifacts
that need to be re-generated when one of their dependencies change (ex:
regenerate a material's bind group when a Texture needs to change). We
are generating the dependency graph so we can definitely produce these
events. Buuuuut generating these events will have a cost / they could be
high frequency for some assets, so we might want this to be opt-in for
specific cases.
* **Investigate Storing More Information In Handles**: Handles can now
store arbitrary information, which makes it cheaper and easier to
access. How much should we move into them? Canonical asset load states
(via atomics)? (`handle.is_loaded()` would be very cool). Should we
store the entire asset and remove the `Assets<T>` collection?
(`Arc<RwLock<Option<Image>>>`?)
* **Support processing and loading files without extensions**: This is a
pretty arbitrary restriction and could be supported with very minimal
changes.
* **Folder Meta**: It would be nice if we could define per folder
processor configuration defaults (likely in a `.meta` or `.folder_meta`
file). Things like "default to linear filtering for all Images in this
folder".
* **Replace async_broadcast with event-listener?** This might be
approximately drop-in for some uses and it feels more light weight
* **Support Running the AssetProcessor on the Web**: Most of the hard
work is done here, but there are some easy straggling TODOs (make the
transaction log an interface instead of a direct file writer so we can
write a web storage backend, implement an AssetReader/AssetWriter that
reads/writes to something like LocalStorage).
* **Consider identifying and preventing circular dependencies**: This is
especially important for "processor dependencies", as processing will
silently never finish in these cases.
* **Built-in/Inlined Asset Hot Reloading**: This PR regresses
"built-in/inlined" asset hot reloading (previously provided by the
DebugAssetServer). I'm intentionally punting this because I think it can
be cleanly implemented with "multiple asset sources" by registering a
"debug asset source" (ex: `debug://bevy_pbr/src/render/pbr.wgsl` asset
paths) in combination with an AssetWatcher for that asset source and
support for "manually loading pats with asset bytes instead of
AssetReaders". The old DebugAssetServer was quite nasty and I'd love to
avoid that hackery going forward.
* **Investigate ways to remove double-parsing meta files**: Parsing meta
files currently involves parsing once with "minimal" versions of the
meta file to extract the type name of the loader/processor config, then
parsing again to parse the "full" meta. This is suboptimal. We should be
able to define custom deserializers that (1) assume the loader/processor
type name comes first (2) dynamically looks up the loader/processor
registrations to deserialize settings in-line (similar to components in
the bevy scene format). Another alternative: deserialize as dynamic
Reflect objects and then convert.
* **More runtime loading configuration**: Support using the Handle type
as a hint to select an asset loader (instead of relying on AssetPath
extensions)
* **More high level Processor trait implementations**: For example, it
might be worth adding support for arbitrary chains of "asset transforms"
that modify an in-memory asset representation between loading and
saving. (ex: load a Mesh, run a `subdivide_mesh` transform, followed by
a `flip_normals` transform, then save the mesh to an efficient
compressed format).
* **Bevy Scene Handle Deserialization**: (see the relevant [Draft TODO
item](#draft-todo) for context)
* **Explore High Level Load Interfaces**: See [this
discussion](#discuss-on_loaded-high-level-interface) for one prototype.
* **Asset Streaming**: It would be great if we could stream Assets (ex:
stream a long video file piece by piece)
* **ID Exchanging**: In this PR Asset Handles/AssetIds are bigger than
they need to be because they have a Uuid enum variant. If we implement
an "id exchanging" system that trades Uuids for "efficient runtime ids",
we can cut down on the size of AssetIds, making them more efficient.
This has some open design questions, such as how to spawn entities with
"default" handle values (as these wouldn't have access to the exchange
api in the current system).
* **Asset Path Fixup Tooling**: Assets that inline asset paths inside
them will break when an asset moves. The asset system provides the
functionality to detect when paths break. We should build a framework
that enables formats to define "path migrations". This is especially
important for scene files. For editor-generated files, we should also
consider using UUIDs (see other bullet point) to avoid the need to
migrate in these cases.

Explicitly make instance_index vertex output @interpolate(flat) (#9675)
The WGSL spec says that all scalar or vector integer vertex stage
outputs and fragment stage inputs must be marked as @interpolate(flat).
I think wgpu fixed this up for us, but being explicit is more correct.

Use instancing for sprites (#9597)
# Objective

- Supercedes #8872 
- Improve sprite rendering performance after the regression in #9236 

## Solution

- Use an instance-rate vertex buffer to store per-instance data.
- Store color, UV offset and scale, and a transform per instance.
- Convert Sprite rect, custom_size, anchor, and flip_x/_y to an affine
3x4 matrix and store the transpose of that in the per-instance data.
This is similar to how MeshUniform uses transpose affine matrices.
- Use a special index buffer that has batches of 6 indices referencing 4
vertices. The lower 2 bits indicate the x and y of a quad such that the
corners are:
  ```
  10    11

  00    01
  ```
UVs are implicit but get modified by UV offset and scale The remaining
upper bits contain the instance index.

## Benchmarks

I will compare versus `main` before #9236 because the results should be
as good as or faster than that. Running `bevymark -- 10000 16` on an M1
Max with `main` at `e8b38925` in yellow, this PR in red:

Looking at the median frame times, that's a 37% reduction from before.

Split ComputedVisibility into two components to allow for accurate change detection and speed up visibility propagation (#9497)
# Objective

Fix #8267.
Fixes half of #7840.

The `ComputedVisibility` component contains two flags: hierarchy
visibility, and view visibility (whether its visible to any cameras).
Due to the modular and open-ended way that view visibility is computed,
it triggers change detection every single frame, even when the value
does not change. Since hierarchy visibility is stored in the same
component as view visibility, this means that change detection for
inherited visibility is completely broken.

At the company I work for, this has become a real issue. We are using
change detection to only re-render scenes when necessary. The broken
state of change detection for computed visibility means that we have to
to rely on the non-inherited `Visibility` component for now. This is
workable in the early stages of our project, but since we will
inevitably want to use the hierarchy, we will have to either:

1. Roll our own solution for computed visibility.
2. Fix the issue for everyone.

## Solution

Split the `ComputedVisibility` component into two: `InheritedVisibilty`
and `ViewVisibility`.
This allows change detection to behave properly for
`InheritedVisibility`.
View visiblity is still erratic, although it is less useful to be able
to detect changes
for this flavor of visibility.

Overall, this actually simplifies the API. Since the visibility system
consists of
self-explaining components, it is much easier to document the behavior
and usage.
This approach is more modular and "ECS-like" -- one could
strip out the `ViewVisibility` component entirely if it's not needed,
and rely only on inherited visibility.

---

## Changelog

- `ComputedVisibility` has been removed in favor of:
`InheritedVisibility` and `ViewVisiblity`.

## Migration Guide

The `ComputedVisibilty` component has been split into
`InheritedVisiblity` and
`ViewVisibility`. Replace any usages of
`ComputedVisibility::is_visible_in_hierarchy`
with `InheritedVisibility::get`, and replace
`ComputedVisibility::is_visible_in_view`
 with `ViewVisibility::get`.
 
 ```rust
 // Before:
 commands.spawn(VisibilityBundle {
     visibility: Visibility::Inherited,
     computed_visibility: ComputedVisibility::default(),
 });
 
 // After:
 commands.spawn(VisibilityBundle {
     visibility: Visibility::Inherited,
     inherited_visibility: InheritedVisibility::default(),
     view_visibility: ViewVisibility::default(),
 });
 ```
 
 ```rust
 // Before:
 fn my_system(q: Query<&ComputedVisibilty>) {
     for vis in &q {
         if vis.is_visible_in_hierarchy() {
     
 // After:
 fn my_system(q: Query<&InheritedVisibility>) {
     for inherited_visibility in &q {
         if inherited_visibility.get() {
 ```
 
 ```rust
 // Before:
 fn my_system(q: Query<&ComputedVisibilty>) {
     for vis in &q {
         if vis.is_visible_in_view() {
     
 // After:
 fn my_system(q: Query<&ViewVisibility>) {
     for view_visibility in &q {
         if view_visibility.get() {
 ```
 
 ```rust
 // Before:
 fn my_system(mut q: Query<&mut ComputedVisibilty>) {
     for vis in &mut q {
         vis.set_visible_in_view();
     
 // After:
 fn my_system(mut q: Query<&mut ViewVisibility>) {
     for view_visibility in &mut q {
         view_visibility.set();

Reorder render sets, refactor bevy_sprite to take advantage (#9236)
This is a continuation of this PR: #8062 

# Objective

- Reorder render schedule sets to allow data preparation when phase item
order is known to support improved batching
- Part of the batching/instancing etc plan from here:
https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/issues/89#issuecomment-1379249074
- The original idea came from @inodentry and proved to be a good one.
Thanks!
- Refactor `bevy_sprite` and `bevy_ui` to take advantage of the new
ordering

## Solution
- Move `Prepare` and `PrepareFlush` after `PhaseSortFlush` 
- Add a `PrepareAssets` set that runs in parallel with other systems and
sets in the render schedule.
  - Put prepare_assets systems in the `PrepareAssets` set
- If explicit dependencies are needed on Mesh or Material RenderAssets
then depend on the appropriate system.
- Add `ManageViews` and `ManageViewsFlush` sets between
`ExtractCommands` and Queue
- Move `queue_mesh*_bind_group` to the Prepare stage
  - Rename them to `prepare_`
- Put systems that prepare resources (buffers, textures, etc.) into a
`PrepareResources` set inside `Prepare`
- Put the `prepare_..._bind_group` systems into a `PrepareBindGroup` set
after `PrepareResources`
- Move `prepare_lights` to the `ManageViews` set
  - `prepare_lights` creates views and this must happen before `Queue`
  - This system needs refactoring to stop handling all responsibilities
- Gather lights, sort, and create shadow map views. Store sorted light
entities in a resource

- Remove `BatchedPhaseItem`
- Replace `batch_range` with `batch_size` representing how many items to
skip after rendering the item or to skip the item entirely if
`batch_size` is 0.
- `queue_sprites` has been split into `queue_sprites` for queueing phase
items and `prepare_sprites` for batching after the `PhaseSort`
  - `PhaseItem`s are still inserted in `queue_sprites`
- After sorting adjacent compatible sprite phase items are accumulated
into `SpriteBatch` components on the first entity of each batch,
containing a range of vertex indices. The associated `PhaseItem`'s
`batch_size` is updated appropriately.
- `SpriteBatch` items are then drawn skipping over the other items in
the batch based on the value in `batch_size`
- A very similar refactor was performed on `bevy_ui`
---

## Changelog

Changed:
- Reordered and reworked render app schedule sets. The main change is
that data is extracted, queued, sorted, and then prepared when the order
of data is known.
- Refactor `bevy_sprite` and `bevy_ui` to take advantage of the
reordering.

## Migration Guide
- Assets such as materials and meshes should now be created in
`PrepareAssets` e.g. `prepare_assets<Mesh>`
- Queueing entities to `RenderPhase`s continues to be done in `Queue`
e.g. `queue_sprites`
- Preparing resources (textures, buffers, etc.) should now be done in
`PrepareResources`, e.g. `prepare_prepass_textures`,
`prepare_mesh_uniforms`
- Prepare bind groups should now be done in `PrepareBindGroups` e.g.
`prepare_mesh_bind_group`
- Any batching or instancing can now be done in `Prepare` where the
order of the phase items is known e.g. `prepare_sprites`

 
## Next Steps
- Introduce some generic mechanism to ensure items that can be batched
are grouped in the phase item order, currently you could easily have
`[sprite at z 0, mesh at z 0, sprite at z 0]` preventing batching.
 - Investigate improved orderings for building the MeshUniform buffer
 - Implementing batching across the rest of bevy

Reduce the size of MeshUniform to improve performance (#9416)
# Objective

- Significantly reduce the size of MeshUniform by only including
necessary data.

## Solution

Local to world, model transforms are affine. This means they only need a
4x3 matrix to represent them.

`MeshUniform` stores the current, and previous model transforms, and the
inverse transpose of the current model transform, all as 4x4 matrices.
Instead we can store the current, and previous model transforms as 4x3
matrices, and we only need the upper-left 3x3 part of the inverse
transpose of the current model transform. This change allows us to
reduce the serialized MeshUniform size from 208 bytes to 144 bytes,
which is over a 30% saving in data to serialize, and VRAM bandwidth and
space.

## Benchmarks

On an M1 Max, running `many_cubes -- sphere`, main is in yellow, this PR
is in red:

A reduction in frame time of ~14%.

---

## Changelog

- Changed: Redefined `MeshUniform` to improve performance by using 4x3
affine transforms and reconstructing 4x4 matrices in the shader. Helper
functions were added to `bevy_pbr::mesh_functions` to unpack the data.
`affine_to_square` converts the packed 4x3 in 3x4 matrix data to a 4x4
matrix. `mat2x4_f32_to_mat3x3` converts the 3x3 in mat2x4 + f32 matrix
data back into a 3x3.

## Migration Guide

Shader code before:
```
var model = mesh[instance_index].model;

Work around naga/wgpu WGSL instance_index -> GLSL gl_InstanceID bug on WebGL2 (#9383)
naga and wgpu should polyfill WGSL instance_index functionality where it
is not available in GLSL. Until that is done, we can work around it in
bevy using a push constant which is converted to a uniform by naga and
wgpu.

# Objective

- Fixes #9375 

## Solution

- Use a push constant to pass in the base instance to the shader on
WebGL2 so that base instance + gl_InstanceID is used to correctly
represent the instance index.

## TODO

- [ ] Benchmark vs per-object dynamic offset MeshUniform as this will
now push a uniform value per-draw as well as update the dynamic offset
per-batch.
- [x] Test on DX12 AMD/NVIDIA to check that this PR does not regress any
problems that were observed there. (@Elabajaba @robtfm were testing that
last time - help appreciated. <3 )

---

## Changelog

- Added: `bevy_render::instance_index` shader import which includes a
workaround for the lack of a WGSL `instance_index` polyfill for WebGL2
in naga and wgpu for the time being. It uses a push_constant which gets
converted to a plain uniform by naga and wgpu.

## Migration Guide

Shader code before:

```
struct Vertex {
    @builtin(instance_index) instance_index: u32,
...
}

@vertex
fn vertex(vertex_no_morph: Vertex) -> VertexOutput {

    var model = mesh[vertex_no_morph.instance_index].model;
```

After:

Use GpuArrayBuffer for MeshUniform (#9254)
# Objective

- Reduce the number of rebindings to enable batching of draw commands

## Solution

- Use the new `GpuArrayBuffer` for `MeshUniform` data to store all
`MeshUniform` data in arrays within fewer bindings
- Sort opaque/alpha mask prepass, opaque/alpha mask main, and shadow
phases also by the batch per-object data binding dynamic offset to
improve performance on WebGL2.

---

## Changelog

- Changed: Per-object `MeshUniform` data is now managed by
`GpuArrayBuffer` as arrays in buffers that need to be indexed into.

## Migration Guide

Accessing the `model` member of an individual mesh object's shader
`Mesh` struct the old way where each `MeshUniform` was stored at its own
dynamic offset:
```rust
struct Vertex {
    @location(0) position: vec3<f32>,
};

fn vertex(vertex: Vertex) -> VertexOutput {
    var out: VertexOutput;
    out.clip_position = mesh_position_local_to_clip(
        mesh.model,
        vec4<f32>(vertex.position, 1.0)
    );
    return out;
}
```

The new way where one needs to index into the array of `Mesh`es for the
batch:
```rust
struct Vertex {
    @builtin(instance_index) instance_index: u32,
    @location(0) position: vec3<f32>,
};

fn vertex(vertex: Vertex) -> VertexOutput {
    var out: VertexOutput;
    out.clip_position = mesh_position_local_to_clip(
        mesh[vertex.instance_index].model,
        vec4<f32>(vertex.position, 1.0)
    );
    return out;
}
```
Note that using the instance_index is the default way to pass the
per-object index into the shader, but if you wish to do custom rendering
approaches you can pass it in however you like.

Fix typos throughout the project (#9090)
# Objective

Fix typos throughout the project.

## Solution

[`typos`](https://github.com/crate-ci/typos) project was used for
scanning, but no automatic corrections were applied. I checked
everything by hand before fixing.

Most of the changes are documentation/comments corrections. Also, there
are few trivial changes to code (variable name, pub(crate) function name
and a few error/panic messages).

## Unsolved

`bevy_reflect_derive` has
[typo](1b51053f19/crates/bevy_reflect/bevy_reflect_derive/src/type_path.rs (L76))
in enum variant name that I didn't fix. Enum is `pub(crate)`, so there
shouldn't be any trouble if fixed. However, code is tightly coupled with
macro usage, so I decided to leave it for more experienced contributor
just in case.

improve shader import model (#5703)
# Objective

operate on naga IR directly to improve handling of shader modules.
- give codespan reporting into imported modules
- allow glsl to be used from wgsl and vice-versa

the ultimate objective is to make it possible to 
- provide user hooks for core shader functions (to modify light
behaviour within the standard pbr pipeline, for example)
- make automatic binding slot allocation possible

but ... since this is already big, adds some value and (i think) is at
feature parity with the existing code, i wanted to push this now.

## Solution

i made a crate called naga_oil (https://github.com/robtfm/naga_oil -
unpublished for now, could be part of bevy) which manages modules by
- building each module independantly to naga IR
- creating "header" files for each supported language, which are used to
build dependent modules/shaders
- make final shaders by combining the shader IR with the IR for imported
modules

then integrated this into bevy, replacing some of the existing shader
processing stuff. also reworked examples to reflect this.

## Migration Guide

shaders that don't use `#import` directives should work without changes.

the most notable user-facing difference is that imported
functions/variables/etc need to be qualified at point of use, and
there's no "leakage" of visible stuff into your shader scope from the
imports of your imports, so if you used things imported by your imports,
you now need to import them directly and qualify them.

the current strategy of including/'spreading' `mesh_vertex_output`
directly into a struct doesn't work any more, so these need to be
modified as per the examples (e.g. color_material.wgsl, or many others).
mesh data is assumed to be in bindgroup 2 by default, if mesh data is
bound into bindgroup 1 instead then the shader def `MESH_BINDGROUP_1`
needs to be added to the pipeline shader_defs.

Add morph targets (#8158)
# Objective

- Add morph targets to `bevy_pbr` (closes #5756) & load them from glTF
- Supersedes #3722
- Fixes #6814

[Morph targets][1] (also known as shape interpolation, shape keys, or
blend shapes) allow animating individual vertices with fine grained
controls. This is typically used for facial expressions. By specifying
multiple poses as vertex offset, and providing a set of weight of each
pose, it is possible to define surprisingly realistic transitions
between poses. Blending between multiple poses also allow composition.
Morph targets are part of the [gltf standard][2] and are a feature of
Unity and Unreal, and babylone.js, it is only natural to implement them
in bevy.

## Solution

This implementation of morph targets uses a 3d texture where each pixel
is a component of an animated attribute. Each layer is a different
target. We use a 2d texture for each target, because the number of
attribute×components×animated vertices is expected to always exceed the
maximum pixel row size limit of webGL2. It copies fairly closely the way
skinning is implemented on the CPU side, while on the GPU side, the
shader morph target implementation is a relatively trivial detail.

We add an optional `morph_texture` to the `Mesh` struct. The
`morph_texture` is built through a method that accepts an iterator over
attribute buffers.

The `MorphWeights` component, user-accessible, controls the blend of
poses used by mesh instances (so that multiple copy of the same mesh may
have different weights), all the weights are uploaded to a uniform
buffer of 256 `f32`. We limit to 16 poses per mesh, and a total of 256
poses.

out stuff

## Future work

- Handling of less and more attributes (eg: animated uv, animated
arbitrary attributes)
- Dynamic pose allocation (so that zero-weighted poses aren't uploaded
to GPU for example, enables much more total poses)
- Better animation API, see #8357

----

## Changelog

- Add morph targets to bevy meshes
- Support up to 64 poses per mesh of individually up to 116508 vertices,
animation currently strictly limited to the position, normal and tangent
attributes.
	- Load a morph target using `Mesh::set_morph_targets` 
- Add `VisitMorphTargets` and `VisitMorphAttributes` traits to
`bevy_render`, this allows defining morph targets (a fairly complex and
nested data structure) through iterators (ie: single copy instead of
passing around buffers), see documentation of those traits for details
- Add `MorphWeights` component exported by `bevy_render`
- `MorphWeights` control mesh's morph target weights, blending between
various poses defined as morph targets.
- `MorphWeights` are directly inherited by direct children (single level
of hierarchy) of an entity. This allows controlling several mesh
primitives through a unique entity _as per GLTF spec_.
- Add `MorphTargetNames` component, naming each indices of loaded morph
targets.
- Load morph targets weights and buffers in `bevy_gltf` 
- handle morph targets animations in `bevy_animation` (previously, it
was a `warn!` log)
- Add the `MorphStressTest.gltf` asset for morph targets testing, taken
from the glTF samples repo, CC0.
- Add morph target manipulation to `scene_viewer`
- Separate the animation code in `scene_viewer` from the rest of the
code, reducing `#[cfg(feature)]` noise
- Add the `morph_targets.rs` example to show off how to manipulate morph
targets, loading `MorpStressTest.gltf`

## Migration Guide

- (very specialized, unlikely to be touched by 3rd parties)
- `MeshPipeline` now has a single `mesh_layouts` field rather than
separate `mesh_layout` and `skinned_mesh_layout` fields. You should
handle all possible mesh bind group layouts in your implementation
- You should also handle properly the new `MORPH_TARGETS` shader def and
mesh pipeline key. A new function is exposed to make this easier:
`setup_moprh_and_skinning_defs`
- The `MeshBindGroup` is now `MeshBindGroups`, cached bind groups are
now accessed through the `get` method.

Cascaded shadow maps: Fix prepass ortho depth clamping (#8877)
# Objective

- Fixes #8645

## Solution

Cascaded shadow maps use a technique commonly called shadow pancaking to
enhance shadow map resolution by restricting the orthographic projection
used in creating the shadow maps to the frustum slice for the cascade.
The implication of this restriction is that shadow casters can be closer
than the near plane of the projection volume.

Prior to this PR, we address clamp the depth of the prepass vertex
output to ensure that these shadow casters do not get clipped, resulting
in shadow loss. However, a flaw / bug of the prior approach is that the
depth that gets written to the shadow map isn't quite correct - the
depth was previously derived by interpolated the clamped clip position,
resulting in depths that are further than they should be. This creates
artifacts that are particularly noticeable when a very 'long' object
intersects the near plane close to perpendicularly.

The fix in this PR is to propagate the unclamped depth to the prepass
fragment shader and use that depth value directly.

A complementary solution would be to use
[DEPTH_CLIP_CONTROL](https://docs.rs/wgpu/latest/wgpu/struct.Features.html#associatedconstant.DEPTH_CLIP_CONTROL)
to request `unclipped_depth`. However due to the relatively low support
of the feature on Vulkan (I believe it's ~38%), I went with this
solution for now to get the broadest fix out first.

---

## Changelog

- Fixed: Shadows from directional lights were sometimes incorrectly
omitted when the shadow caster was partially out of view.
