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

Introduce AspectRatio struct (#10368)
# Objective

- Fix an inconsistency in the calculation of aspect ratio's. 
- Fixes #10288 

## Solution

- Created an intermediate `AspectRatio` struct, as suggested in the
issue. This is currently just used in any places where aspect ratio
calculations happen, to prevent doing it wrong. In my and @mamekoro 's
opinion, it would be better if this was used instead of a normal `f32`
in various places, but I didn't want to make too many changes to begin
with.

## Migration Guide
- Anywhere where you are currently expecting a f32 when getting aspect
ratios, you will now receive a `AspectRatio` struct. this still holds
the same value.

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

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`.

Add clippy::manual_let_else at warn level to lints (#10684)
# Objective

Related to #10612.

Enable the
[`clippy::manual_let_else`](https://rust-lang.github.io/rust-clippy/master/#manual_let_else)
lint as a warning. The `let else` form seems more idiomatic to me than a
`match`/`if else` that either match a pattern or diverge, and from the
clippy doc, the lint doesn't seem to have any possible false positive.

## Solution

Add the lint as warning in `Cargo.toml`, refactor places where the lint
triggers.

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())),
        ),
    ),
);
```

Here's a more extreme example in bevy_solari:

---

## 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 {
			// ...
        },
    ],
);
```

## TODO

- [x] implement a `Dynamic` variant
- [x] update the `RenderDevice::create_bind_group_layout()` api to match
the one from `RenderDevice::creat_bind_group()`
- [x] docs

Standardize toml format with taplo (#10594)
# Objective

- Standardize fmt for toml files

## Solution

- Add [taplo](https://taplo.tamasfe.dev/) to CI (check for fmt and diff
for toml files), for context taplo is used by the most popular extension
in VScode [Even Better
TOML](https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=tamasfe.even-better-toml
- Add contribution section to explain toml fmt with taplo.
 
Now to pass CI you need to run `taplo fmt --option indent_string=" "` or
if you use vscode have the `Even Better TOML` extension with 4 spaces
for indent

Update default ClearColor to better match Bevy's branding (#10339)
# Objective

- Changes the default clear color to match the code block color on
Bevy's website.

## Solution

- Changed the clear color, updated text in examples to ensure adequate
contrast. Inconsistent usage of white text color set to use the default
color instead, which is already white.
- Additionally, updated the `3d_scene` example to make it look a bit
better, and use bevy's branding colors.

allow DeferredPrepass to work without other prepass markers (#10223)
# Objective

fix crash / misbehaviour when `DeferredPrepass` is used without
`DepthPrepass`.

- Deferred lighting requires the depth prepass texture to be present, so
that the depth texture is available for binding. without it the deferred
lighting pass will use 0 for depth of all meshes.
- When `DeferredPrepass` is used without other prepass markers, and with
any materials that use `OpaqueRenderMode::Forward`, those entities will
try to queue to the `Opaque3dPrepass` render phase, which doesn't exist,
causing a crash.

## Solution

- check if the prepass phases exist before queueing
- generate prepass textures if `Opaque3dDeferred` is present
- add a note to the DeferredPrepass marker to note that DepthPrepass is
also required by the default deferred lighting pass
- also changed some `With<T>.is_some()`s to `Has<T>`s

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?

## A Note on Texture Packing

_This was originally added as a comment to the
`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 deferred lighting pass values not all working on M1 in WebGL2 (#10304)
# Objective

- On MacOS M1 WebGL2 the deferred lighting ID depth comparison is
failing for some values (including 1, the default)
Note: this issue is just with WebGL2, native on MacOS M1 is working with
current bevy main.

## Solution

- Use Depth16Unorm for lighting pass id format.

This format is aliasing to the same value consistently (in
[copy_deferred_lighting_id](https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/blob/main/crates/bevy_core_pipeline/src/deferred/copy_deferred_lighting_id.wgsl#L15)
and
[deferred_lighting](https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/blob/main/crates/bevy_pbr/src/deferred/deferred_lighting.wgsl#L39))
on MacOS M1 WebGL, and appears to be supported across WebGL2, WebGPU,
DX12, OpenGL 3.3, Vulkan.

Successfully tested all 256 ids on:

- MacOS M1 native and WebGL2
- Window RTX3060 Vulkan/DX12/WebGL2
- Windows Intel UHD Graphics 630 IGP DX12/WebGL2 
(bevy w/ Vulkan doesn't work on this IGP in general

Smaller TAA fixes (#10200)
Extracted the easy stuff from #8974 .

# Problem
1. Commands from `update_previous_view_projections` would crash when
matching entities were despawned.
2. `TaaPipelineId` and `draw_3d_graph` module were not public.
3. When the motion vectors pointed to pixels that are now off screen, a
smearing artifact could occur.

# Solution
1. Use `try_insert` command instead.
2. Make them public, renaming to `TemporalAntiAliasPipelineId`.
3. Check for this case, and ignore history for pixels that are
off-screen.

Log a warning when the tonemapping_luts feature is disabled but required for the selected tonemapper. (#10253)
# Objective

Make it obvious why stuff renders pink when rendering stuff with bevy
with `default_features = false` and bevy's default tonemapper
(TonyMcMapFace, it requires a LUT which requires the `tonemapping_luts`,
`ktx2`, and `zstd` features).

Not sure if this should be considered as fixing these issues, but in my
previous PR (https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/pull/9073, and old
discussions on discord that I only somewhat remember) it seemed like we
didn't want to make ktx2 and zstd required features for
bevy_core_pipeline.

Related https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/issues/9179
Related https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/issues/9098

## Solution

This logs an error when a LUT based tonemapper is used without the
`tonemapping_luts` feature enabled, and cleans up the default features a
bit (`tonemapping_luts` now includes the `ktx2` and `zstd` features,
since it panics without them).

Another solution would be to fall back to a non-lut based tonemapper,
but I don't like this solution as then it's not explicitly clear to
users why eg. a library example renders differently than a normal bevy
app (if the library forgot the `tonemapping_luts` feature).

I did remove the `ktx2` and `zstd` features from the list of default
features in Cargo.toml, as I don't believe anything else currently in
bevy relies on them (or at least searching through every hit for `ktx2`
and `zstd` didn't show anything except loading an environment map in
some examples), and they still show up in the `cargo_features` doc as
default features.

---

## Changelog

- The `tonemapping_luts` feature now includes both the `ktx2` and `zstd`
features to avoid a panic when the `tonemapping_luts` feature was enable
without both the `ktx2` and `zstd` feature enabled.

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.

Add ImageSamplerDescriptor as an image loader setting (#9982)
Closes #9946 

# Objective

Add a new type mirroring `wgpu::SamplerDescriptor` for
`ImageLoaderSettings` to control how a loaded image should be sampled.

Fix issues with texture sampler descriptors not being set when loading
gltf texture from URI.

## Solution

Add a new `ImageSamplerDescriptor` and its affiliated types that mirrors
`wgpu::SamplerDescriptor`, use it in the image loader settings.

---

## Changelog

### Added

- Added new types `ImageSamplerDescriptor`, `ImageAddressMode`,
`ImageFilterMode`, `ImageCompareFunction` and `ImageSamplerBorderColor`
that mirrors the corresponding wgpu types.
- `ImageLoaderSettings` now carries an `ImageSamplerDescriptor` field
that will be used to determine how the loaded image is sampled, and will
be serialized as part of the image assets `.meta` files.

### Changed

- `Image::from_buffer` now takes the sampler descriptor to use as an
additional parameter.

### Fixed

- Sampler descriptors are set for gltf textures loaded from URI.

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.

Fix missing explicit lifetime name for copy_deferred_lighting_id name (#10128)
# Objective

On nightly there is a warning on a missing lifetime:

```bash
warning: `&` without an explicit lifetime name cannot be used here
```

The details are in https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/115010, but
the bottom line is that in associated constants elided lifetimes are no
longer allowed to be implicitly defined.

This fixes the only place where it is missing.

## Solution

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 })`

skybox.wgsl: Fix precision issues (#9909)
# Objective

- Fixes #9707 

## Solution

- At large translations (a few thousand units), the precision of
calculating the ray direction from the fragment world position and
camera world position seems to break down. Sampling the cubemap only
needs the ray direction. As such we can use the view space fragment
position, normalise it, rotate it to world space, and use that.

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

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.

This run varies the material data per instance by randomly-generating
its colour. This is the worst case for batching and that it performs

entities.

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:

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
and 160000 on `main` and the 1000th frame is identical (ignoring the fps
counter text overlay).

This creates unique materials per instance by randomly-generating the
material's colour. This is the worst case for 2D batching. Somehow, this
PR manages a 7% reduction in median frame time. Both main and this PR

This spawns the sprites selecting a texture at random per instance from
the 10 generated textures. This has no significant change vs main and
shouldn't.

### 2D Sprite `bevymark --benchmark --waves 160 --per-wave 1000 --mode

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.

Use radsort for Transparent2d PhaseItem sorting (#9882)
# Objective

Fix a performance regression in the "[bevy vs
pixi](https://github.com/SUPERCILEX/bevy-vs-pixi)" benchmark.

This benchmark seems to have a slightly pathological distribution of `z`
values -- Sprites are spawned with a random `z` value with a child
sprite at `f32::EPSILON` relative to the parent.

See discussion here:
https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/issues/8100#issuecomment-1726978633

## Solution

Use `radsort` for sorting `Transparent2d` `PhaseItem`s.

Use random `z` values in bevymark to stress the phase sort. Add an
`--ordered-z` option to `bevymark` that uses the old behavior.

## Benchmarks

-1.5% |
| bevy-vs-pixi | 39.71 | 59.88 | 🟩 +50.1% |

## Discussion

It's possible that `TransparentUi` should also change. We could probably
use `slice::sort_unstable_by_key` with the current sort key though, as
its items are always sorted and unique. I'd prefer to follow up later to
look into that.

Here's a survey of sorts used by other `PhaseItem`s

#### slice::sort_by_key
`Transparent2d`, `TransparentUi`

#### radsort
`Opaque3d`, `AlphaMask3d`, `Transparent3d`, `Opaque3dPrepass`,
`AlphaMask3dPrepass`, `Shadow`

I also tried `slice::sort_unstable_by_key` with a compound sort key
including `Entity`, but it didn't seem as promising and I didn't test it
as thoroughly.

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.

Cache depth texture based on usage (#9565)
# Objective

- Currently, the depth textures are cached based on the target. If
multiple camera have the same target but a different
`depth_texture_usage` bevy will just use the same texture and ignore
that setting.

## Solution

- Add the usage as a cache key

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

Fix CI for Rust 1.72 (#9562)
# Objective

[Rust 1.72.0](https://blog.rust-lang.org/2023/08/24/Rust-1.72.0.html) is
now stable.

# Notes

- `let-else` formatting has arrived!
- I chose to allow `explicit_iter_loop` due to
https://github.com/rust-lang/rust-clippy/issues/11074.
  
We didn't hit any of the false positives that prevent compilation, but
fixing this did produce a lot of the "symbol soup" mentioned, e.g. `for
image in &mut *image_events {`.
  
  Happy to undo this if there's consensus the other way.

Extend the default render range of 2D camera (#9310)
# Objective

- Fixes #9138

## Solution

- Calling `Camera2dBundle::default()` will now result in a
`Camera2dBundle` with `Vec3::ZERO` transform, `far` value of `1000.` and
`near` value of `-1000.`.
- This will enable the rendering of 2d entities in negative z space by
default.
- I did not modify `new_with_far` as moving the camera to `Vec3::ZERO`
in that function will cause entities in the positive z space to become
hidden without further changes. And the further changes cannot be
applied without it being a breaking change.

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.

bevy_reflect: FromReflect Ergonomics Implementation (#6056)
# Objective

**This implementation is based on
https://github.com/bevyengine/rfcs/pull/59.**

---

Resolves #4597

Full details and motivation can be found in the RFC, but here's a brief
summary.

`FromReflect` is a very powerful and important trait within the
reflection API. It allows Dynamic types (e.g., `DynamicList`, etc.) to
be formed into Real ones (e.g., `Vec<i32>`, etc.).

This mainly comes into play concerning deserialization, where the
reflection deserializers both return a `Box<dyn Reflect>` that almost
always contain one of these Dynamic representations of a Real type. To
convert this to our Real type, we need to use `FromReflect`.

It also sneaks up in other ways. For example, it's a required bound for
`T` in `Vec<T>` so that `Vec<T>` as a whole can be made `FromReflect`.
It's also required by all fields of an enum as it's used as part of the
`Reflect::apply` implementation.

So in other words, much like `GetTypeRegistration` and `Typed`, it is
very much a core reflection trait.

The problem is that it is not currently treated like a core trait and is
not automatically derived alongside `Reflect`. This makes using it a bit
cumbersome and easy to forget.

## Solution

Automatically derive `FromReflect` when deriving `Reflect`.

Users can then choose to opt-out if needed using the
`#[reflect(from_reflect = false)]` attribute.

```rust
#[derive(Reflect)]
struct Foo;

#[derive(Reflect)]
#[reflect(from_reflect = false)]
struct Bar;

fn test<T: FromReflect>(value: T) {}

test(Foo); // <-- OK
test(Bar); // <-- Panic! Bar does not implement trait `FromReflect`
```

#### `ReflectFromReflect`

This PR also automatically adds the `ReflectFromReflect` (introduced in
#6245) registration to the derived `GetTypeRegistration` impl— if the
type hasn't opted out of `FromReflect` of course.

<details>
<summary><h4>Improved Deserialization</h4></summary>

> **Warning**
> This section includes changes that have since been descoped from this
PR. They will likely be implemented again in a followup PR. I am mainly
leaving these details in for archival purposes, as well as for reference
when implementing this logic again.

And since we can do all the above, we might as well improve
deserialization. We can now choose to deserialize into a Dynamic type or
automatically convert it using `FromReflect` under the hood.

`[Un]TypedReflectDeserializer::new` will now perform the conversion and
return the `Box`'d Real type.

`[Un]TypedReflectDeserializer::new_dynamic` will work like what we have
now and simply return the `Box`'d Dynamic type.

```rust
// Returns the Real type
let reflect_deserializer = UntypedReflectDeserializer::new(&registry);
let mut deserializer = ron:🇩🇪:Deserializer::from_str(input)?;

let output: SomeStruct = reflect_deserializer.deserialize(&mut deserializer)?.take()?;

// Returns the Dynamic type
let reflect_deserializer = UntypedReflectDeserializer::new_dynamic(&registry);
let mut deserializer = ron:🇩🇪:Deserializer::from_str(input)?;

let output: DynamicStruct = reflect_deserializer.deserialize(&mut deserializer)?.take()?;
```

</details>

---

## Changelog

* `FromReflect` is now automatically derived within the `Reflect` derive
macro
* This includes auto-registering `ReflectFromReflect` in the derived
`GetTypeRegistration` impl
* ~~Renamed `TypedReflectDeserializer::new` and
`UntypedReflectDeserializer::new` to
`TypedReflectDeserializer::new_dynamic` and
`UntypedReflectDeserializer::new_dynamic`, respectively~~ **Descoped**
* ~~Changed `TypedReflectDeserializer::new` and
`UntypedReflectDeserializer::new` to automatically convert the
deserialized output using `FromReflect`~~ **Descoped**

## Migration Guide

* `FromReflect` is now automatically derived within the `Reflect` derive
macro. Items with both derives will need to remove the `FromReflect`
one.

  ```rust
  // OLD
  #[derive(Reflect, FromReflect)]
  struct Foo;
  
  // NEW
  #[derive(Reflect)]
  struct Foo;
  ```

If using a manual implementation of `FromReflect` and the `Reflect`
derive, users will need to opt-out of the automatic implementation.

  ```rust
  // OLD
  #[derive(Reflect)]
  struct Foo;
  
  impl FromReflect for Foo {/* ... */}
  
  // NEW
  #[derive(Reflect)]
  #[reflect(from_reflect = false)]
  struct Foo;
  
  impl FromReflect for Foo {/* ... */}
  ```

<details>
<summary><h4>Removed Migrations</h4></summary>

> **Warning**
> This section includes changes that have since been descoped from this
PR. They will likely be implemented again in a followup PR. I am mainly
leaving these details in for archival purposes, as well as for reference
when implementing this logic again.

* The reflect deserializers now perform a `FromReflect` conversion
internally. The expected output of `TypedReflectDeserializer::new` and
`UntypedReflectDeserializer::new` is no longer a Dynamic (e.g.,
`DynamicList`), but its Real counterpart (e.g., `Vec<i32>`).

  ```rust
let reflect_deserializer =
UntypedReflectDeserializer::new_dynamic(&registry);
  let mut deserializer = ron:🇩🇪:Deserializer::from_str(input)?;
  
  // OLD
let output: DynamicStruct = reflect_deserializer.deserialize(&mut
deserializer)?.take()?;
  
  // NEW
let output: SomeStruct = reflect_deserializer.deserialize(&mut
deserializer)?.take()?;
  ```

Alternatively, if this behavior isn't desired, use the
`TypedReflectDeserializer::new_dynamic` and
`UntypedReflectDeserializer::new_dynamic` methods instead:

  ```rust
  // OLD
  let reflect_deserializer = UntypedReflectDeserializer::new(&registry);
  
  // NEW
let reflect_deserializer =
UntypedReflectDeserializer::new_dynamic(&registry);
  ```

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.

* Thanks to `storytold` for sponsoring the feature
* Thanks to `superdump` and `james7132` for guidance and help figuring
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.
