Make PersistentGpuBufferable a safe trait (#12744)
# Objective
Fixes #12727. All parts that `PersistentGpuBuffer` interact with should
be 100% safe both on the CPU and the GPU: `Queue::write_buffer_with`
zeroes out the slice being written to and when uploading to the GPU, and
all slice writes are bounds checked on the CPU side.

## Solution
Make `PersistentGpuBufferable` a safe trait. Enforce it's correct
implementation via assertions. Re-enable `forbid(unsafe_code)` on
`bevy_pbr`.

Forbid unsafe in most crates in the engine (#12684)
# Objective
Resolves #3824. `unsafe` code should be the exception, not the norm in
Rust. It's obviously needed for various use cases as it's interfacing
with platforms and essentially running the borrow checker at runtime in
the ECS, but the touted benefits of Bevy is that we are able to heavily
leverage Rust's safety, and we should be holding ourselves accountable
to that by minimizing our unsafe footprint.

## Solution
Deny `unsafe_code` workspace wide. Add explicit exceptions for the
following crates, and forbid it in almost all of the others.

* bevy_ecs - Obvious given how much unsafe is needed to achieve
performant results
* bevy_ptr - Works with raw pointers, even more low level than bevy_ecs.
 * bevy_render - due to needing to integrate with wgpu
 * bevy_window - due to needing to integrate with raw_window_handle
* bevy_utils - Several unsafe utilities used by bevy_ecs. Ideally moved
into bevy_ecs instead of made publicly usable.
 * bevy_reflect - Required for the unsafe type casting it's doing.
 * bevy_transform - for the parallel transform propagation
 * bevy_gizmos  - For the SystemParam impls it has.
* bevy_assets - To support reflection. Might not be required, not 100%
sure yet.
* bevy_mikktspace - due to being a conversion from a C library. Pending
safe rewrite.
* bevy_dynamic_plugin - Inherently unsafe due to the dynamic loading
nature.

Several uses of unsafe were rewritten, as they did not need to be using
them:

* bevy_text - a case of `Option::unchecked` could be rewritten as a
normal for loop and match instead of an iterator.
* bevy_color - the Pod/Zeroable implementations were replaceable with
bytemuck's derive macros.

Meshlet rendering (initial feature) (#10164)
# Objective
- Implements a more efficient, GPU-driven
(https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/issues/1342) rendering pipeline
based on meshlets.
- Meshes are split into small clusters of triangles called meshlets,
each of which acts as a mini index buffer into the larger mesh data.
Meshlets can be compressed, streamed, culled, and batched much more
efficiently than monolithic meshes.
