Migrate cameras to required components (#15641)
# Objective

Yet another PR for migrating stuff to required components. This time,
cameras!

## Solution

As per the [selected
proposal](https://hackmd.io/tsYID4CGRiWxzsgawzxG_g#Combined-Proposal-1-Selected),
deprecate `Camera2dBundle` and `Camera3dBundle` in favor of `Camera2d`
and `Camera3d`.

Adding a `Camera` without `Camera2d` or `Camera3d` now logs a warning,
as suggested by Cart [on
Discord](https://discord.com/channels/691052431525675048/1264881140007702558/1291506402832945273).
I would personally like cameras to work a bit differently and be split
into a few more components, to avoid some footguns and confusing
semantics, but that is more controversial, and shouldn't block this core
migration.

## Testing

I ran a few 2D and 3D examples, and tried cameras with and without
render graphs.

## Migration Guide

`Camera2dBundle` and `Camera3dBundle` have been deprecated in favor of
`Camera2d` and `Camera3d`. Inserting them will now also insert the other
components required by them automatically.

Migrate lights to required components (#15554)
# Objective

Another step in the migration to required components: lights!

Note that this does not include `EnvironmentMapLight` or reflection
probes yet, because their API hasn't been fully chosen yet.

## Solution

As per the [selected
proposals](https://hackmd.io/@bevy/required_components/%2FLLnzwz9XTxiD7i2jiUXkJg):

- Deprecate `PointLightBundle` in favor of the `PointLight` component
- Deprecate `SpotLightBundle` in favor of the `PointLight` component
- Deprecate `DirectionalLightBundle` in favor of the `DirectionalLight`
component

## Testing

I ran some examples with lights.

---

## Migration Guide

`PointLightBundle`, `SpotLightBundle`, and `DirectionalLightBundle` have
been deprecated. Use the `PointLight`, `SpotLight`, and
`DirectionalLight` components instead. Adding them will now insert the
other components required by them automatically.

The Cooler 'Retain Rendering World' (#15320)
- Adopted from #14449
- Still fixes #12144.

## Migration Guide

The retained render world is a complex change: migrating might take one
of a few different forms depending on the patterns you're using.

For every example, we specify in which world the code is run. Most of
the changes affect render world code, so for the average Bevy user who's
using Bevy's high-level rendering APIs, these changes are unlikely to
affect your code.

### Spawning entities in the render world

Previously, if you spawned an entity with `world.spawn(...)`,
`commands.spawn(...)` or some other method in the rendering world, it
would be despawned at the end of each frame. In 0.15, this is no longer
the case and so your old code could leak entities. This can be mitigated
by either re-architecting your code to no longer continuously spawn
entities (like you're used to in the main world), or by adding the
`bevy_render::world_sync::TemporaryRenderEntity` component to the entity
you're spawning. Entities tagged with `TemporaryRenderEntity` will be
removed at the end of each frame (like before).

### Extract components with `ExtractComponentPlugin`

```
// main world
app.add_plugins(ExtractComponentPlugin::<ComponentToExtract>::default());
```

`ExtractComponentPlugin` has been changed to only work with synced
entities. Entities are automatically synced if `ComponentToExtract` is
added to them. However, entities are not "unsynced" if any given
`ComponentToExtract` is removed, because an entity may have multiple
components to extract. This would cause the other components to no
longer get extracted because the entity is not synced.

So be careful when only removing extracted components from entities in
the render world, because it might leave an entity behind in the render
world. The solution here is to avoid only removing extracted components
and instead despawn the entire entity.

### Manual extraction using `Extract<Query<(Entity, ...)>>`

```rust
// in render world, inspired by bevy_pbr/src/cluster/mod.rs
pub fn extract_clusters(
    mut commands: Commands,
    views: Extract<Query<(Entity, &Clusters, &Camera)>>,
) {
    for (entity, clusters, camera) in &views {
        // some code
        commands.get_or_spawn(entity).insert(...);
    }
}
```
One of the primary consequences of the retained rendering world is that
there's no longer a one-to-one mapping from entity IDs in the main world
to entity IDs in the render world. Unlike in Bevy 0.14, Entity 42 in the
main world doesn't necessarily map to entity 42 in the render world.

Previous code which called `get_or_spawn(main_world_entity)` in the
render world (`Extract<Query<(Entity, ...)>>` returns main world
entities). Instead, you should use `&RenderEntity` and
`render_entity.id()` to get the correct entity in the render world. Note
that this entity does need to be synced first in order to have a
`RenderEntity`.

When performing manual abstraction, this won't happen automatically
(like with `ExtractComponentPlugin`) so add a `SyncToRenderWorld` marker
component to the entities you want to extract.

This results in the following code:
```rust
// in render world, inspired by bevy_pbr/src/cluster/mod.rs
pub fn extract_clusters(
    mut commands: Commands,
    views: Extract<Query<(&RenderEntity, &Clusters, &Camera)>>,
) {
    for (render_entity, clusters, camera) in &views {
        // some code
        commands.get_or_spawn(render_entity.id()).insert(...);
    }
}

// in main world, when spawning
world.spawn(Clusters::default(), Camera::default(), SyncToRenderWorld)
```

### Looking up `Entity` ids in the render world

As previously stated, there's now no correspondence between main world
and render world `Entity` identifiers.

Querying for `Entity` in the render world will return the `Entity` id in
the render world: query for `MainEntity` (and use its `id()` method) to
get the corresponding entity in the main world.

This is also a good way to tell the difference between synced and
unsynced entities in the render world, because unsynced entities won't
have a `MainEntity` component.

Rename rendering components for improved consistency and clarity (#15035)
# Objective

The names of numerous rendering components in Bevy are inconsistent and
a bit confusing. Relevant names include:

- `AutoExposureSettings`
- `AutoExposureSettingsUniform`
- `BloomSettings`
- `BloomUniform` (no `Settings`)
- `BloomPrefilterSettings`
- `ChromaticAberration` (no `Settings`)
- `ContrastAdaptiveSharpeningSettings`
- `DepthOfFieldSettings`
- `DepthOfFieldUniform` (no `Settings`)
- `FogSettings`
- `SmaaSettings`, `Fxaa`, `TemporalAntiAliasSettings` (really
inconsistent??)
- `ScreenSpaceAmbientOcclusionSettings`
- `ScreenSpaceReflectionsSettings`
- `VolumetricFogSettings`

Firstly, there's a lot of inconsistency between `Foo`/`FooSettings` and
`FooUniform`/`FooSettingsUniform` and whether names are abbreviated or
not.

Secondly, the `Settings` post-fix seems unnecessary and a bit confusing
semantically, since it makes it seem like the component is mostly just
auxiliary configuration instead of the core *thing* that actually
enables the feature. This will be an even bigger problem once bundles
like `TemporalAntiAliasBundle` are deprecated in favor of required
components, as users will expect a component named `TemporalAntiAlias`
(or similar), not `TemporalAntiAliasSettings`.

## Solution

Drop the `Settings` post-fix from the component names, and change some
names to be more consistent.

- `AutoExposure`
- `AutoExposureUniform`
- `Bloom`
- `BloomUniform`
- `BloomPrefilter`
- `ChromaticAberration`
- `ContrastAdaptiveSharpening`
- `DepthOfField`
- `DepthOfFieldUniform`
- `DistanceFog`
- `Smaa`, `Fxaa`, `TemporalAntiAliasing` (note: we might want to change
to `Taa`, see "Discussion")
- `ScreenSpaceAmbientOcclusion`
- `ScreenSpaceReflections`
- `VolumetricFog`

I kept the old names as deprecated type aliases to make migration a bit
less painful for users. We should remove them after the next release.
(And let me know if I should just... not add them at all)

I also added some very basic docs for a few types where they were
missing, like on `Fxaa` and `DepthOfField`.

## Discussion

- `TemporalAntiAliasing` is still inconsistent with `Smaa` and `Fxaa`.
Consensus [on
Discord](https://discord.com/channels/691052431525675048/743663924229963868/1280601167209955431)
seemed to be that renaming to `Taa` would probably be fine, but I think
it's a bit more controversial, and it would've required renaming a lot
of related types like `TemporalAntiAliasNode`,
`TemporalAntiAliasBundle`, and `TemporalAntiAliasPlugin`, so I think
it's better to leave to a follow-up.
- I think `Fog` should probably have a more specific name like
`DistanceFog` considering it seems to be distinct from `VolumetricFog`.
~~This should probably be done in a follow-up though, so I just removed
the `Settings` post-fix for now.~~ (done)

## Migration Guide

Many rendering components have been renamed for improved consistency and
clarity.

- `AutoExposureSettings` → `AutoExposure`
- `BloomSettings` → `Bloom`
- `BloomPrefilterSettings` → `BloomPrefilter`
- `ContrastAdaptiveSharpeningSettings` → `ContrastAdaptiveSharpening`
- `DepthOfFieldSettings` → `DepthOfField`
- `FogSettings` → `DistanceFog`
- `SmaaSettings` → `Smaa`
- `TemporalAntiAliasSettings` → `TemporalAntiAliasing`
- `ScreenSpaceAmbientOcclusionSettings` → `ScreenSpaceAmbientOcclusion`
- `ScreenSpaceReflectionsSettings` → `ScreenSpaceReflections`
- `VolumetricFogSettings` → `VolumetricFog`

Allow volumetric fog to be localized to specific, optionally voxelized, regions. (#14099)
Currently, volumetric fog is global and affects the entire scene
uniformly. This is inadequate for many use cases, such as local smoke
effects. To address this problem, this commit introduces *fog volumes*,
which are axis-aligned bounding boxes (AABBs) that specify fog
parameters inside their boundaries. Such volumes can also specify a
*density texture*, a 3D texture of voxels that specifies the density of
the fog at each point.

To create a fog volume, add a `FogVolume` component to an entity (which
is included in the new `FogVolumeBundle` convenience bundle). Like light
probes, a fog volume is conceptually a 1×1×1 cube centered on the
origin; a transform can be used to position and resize this region. Many
of the fields on the existing `VolumetricFogSettings` have migrated to
the new `FogVolume` component. `VolumetricFogSettings` on a camera is
still needed to enable volumetric fog. However, by itself
`VolumetricFogSettings` is no longer sufficient to enable volumetric
fog; a `FogVolume` must be present. Applications that wish to retain the
old global fog behavior can simply surround the scene with a large fog
volume.

By way of implementation, this commit converts the volumetric fog shader
from a full-screen shader to one applied to a mesh. The strategy is
different depending on whether the camera is inside or outside the fog
volume. If the camera is inside the fog volume, the mesh is simply a
plane scaled to the viewport, effectively falling back to a full-screen
pass. If the camera is outside the fog volume, the mesh is a cube
transformed to coincide with the boundaries of the fog volume's AABB.
Importantly, in the latter case, only the front faces of the cuboid are
rendered. Instead of treating the boundaries of the fog as a sphere
centered on the camera position, as we did prior to this patch, we
raytrace the far planes of the AABB to determine the portion of each ray
contained within the fog volume. We then raymarch in shadow map space as
usual. If a density texture is present, we modulate the fixed density
value with the trilinearly-interpolated value from that texture.

Furthermore, this patch introduces optional jitter to fog volumes,
intended for use with TAA. This modifies the position of the ray from
frame to frame using interleaved gradient noise, in order to reduce
aliasing artifacts. Many implementations of volumetric fog in games use
this technique. Note that this patch makes no attempt to write a motion
vector; this is because when a view ray intersects multiple voxels
there's no single direction of motion. Consequently, fog volumes can
have ghosting artifacts, but because fog is "ghostly" by its nature,
these artifacts are less objectionable than they would be for opaque
objects.

A new example, `fog_volumes`, has been added. It demonstrates a single
fog volume containing a voxelized representation of the Stanford bunny.
The existing `volumetric_fog` example has been updated to use the new
local volumetrics API.

## Changelog

### Added

* Local `FogVolume`s are now supported, to localize fog to specific
regions. They can optionally have 3D density voxel textures for precise
control over the distribution of the fog.

### Changed

* `VolumetricFogSettings` on a camera no longer enables volumetric fog;
instead, it simply enables the processing of `FogVolume`s within the
scene.

## Migration Guide

* A `FogVolume` is now necessary in order to enable volumetric fog, in
addition to `VolumetricFogSettings` on the camera. Existing uses of
volumetric fog can be migrated by placing a large `FogVolume`
surrounding the scene.
