* some optimizations
- namespace refactor (example: wiGraphics:: -> wi::graphics)
- provided namespace compatibility macro for old user code: WICKEDENGINE_BACKWARDS_COMPATIBILITY_0_59
- resource manager will return `Resource` instead of `shared_ptr<Resource>` objects
- MAD shader optimizations
- implemented alpha to coverage with alpha tested materials when MSAA is enabled
- alpha testing fix with transparent shadow maps
- TLAS and scene buffers will be recreated less frequently when things get added/removed from the scene
- std container replacements for vector, unordered_map, unordered_set
- unordered_map and unordered_set replaced with ska::flat_hash_map
- vector replacement is still std::
- unordered_map performance test (std:: vs ska::)
- backlog improvements
- wiArchive improvements
- editor: added option to dump scene to C++ header file
- common improvements, refactors
* common refactors:
- DirectXMath only included in wiMath.h instead of CommonInclude.h
- cleanups in CommonInclude.h
- lua math refactor
- generic allocator refactor
* FLT_MAX to numeric_limits
* linebreak
* comment fix
* allocator fix
* more math refactors
* removed wiContainers, renamed wiAllocators to wiAllocator, moved ThreadSafeRingBuffer to wiAllocator
* Mark concrete graphics device classes as final - they should not be inherited from further.
* Apply consistent snake_cast naming (which has been used in more recent additions) across wiGraphics structs
* Make 'CommandList' type safe so that calling graphics device functions is less error-prone.
* Decouple wiProfiler from wiRenderer by passing the device instance to functions instead of using wiRenderer::GetDevice().
* Bump minor version for graphics refactors.
* Decouple wiHelper screenshot/saveTexture* functions from wiRenderer by providing the graphics device as a parameter.
* Convert wiGraphics.h enums to use enum class (except a couple of raytracing flag enums which seem best left)
* hdr fix
* Documentation updates for enum class.
* Revert "Decouple wiHelper screenshot/saveTexture* functions from wiRenderer by providing the graphics device as a parameter."
This reverts commit fd70249554.
* Revert "Decouple wiProfiler from wiRenderer by passing the device instance to functions instead of using wiRenderer::GetDevice()."
This reverts commit 69b5326cfc.
* Fix debug build
* Fix gcc build (hopefully). Move bitmask operator defs to end of file outside of wiGraphics namespace.
* Remove 'to_underlying' and replace with casts
* graphics device access decoupled from wiRenderer, now should be accessed from wiGraphics::GetDevice()
* minor refactors, comments
* dx12 assert fix
* fixes
* commandlist refactor
* commandlist initial value
* commandlist refactor
* graphicsdevice comments, GetActivePipelineCount() function
* has changed to has_flag
* just rename a thing

* GPUBufferDesc.ByteWidth is uint64_t, we don't support D3D11 anymore.
AllocateGPU, UpdateBuffer uses uint64_t.
Rename SubresourceData members with better name.
PipelineStateDesc support custom patch control points, default to 3.
* CreateBuffer accepts const void* instead of const SubresourceData.
Cleanup and improve documentation about buffer creations.
* Rename StructureByteStride to Stride.
* GPUBufferDesc rename ByteWidth to Size.
* CreateBuffer: Under D3D12 - USAGE_READBACK use D3D12_RESOURCE_FLAG_DENY_SHADER_RESOURCE flag and honor BIND_SHADER_RESOURCE.
version 0.57.0:
- DX11 removed, DX12 is default now on Windows
- graphics interfaces improved:
- Bindless descriptor support is now assumed
- GPU Buffers with USAGE_UPLOAD and USAGE_READBACK will be persistently mapped after creation
- Removed Map/Unmap
- added BindDynamicConstantBuffer helper function
- improved AllocateGPU helper function
- GPU Queries resolving can be done directly into GPUBuffer
- UpdateBuffer now doesn't synchronize internally, this allows batching updates
- removed support for bindless constant buffers (uniform buffers)
- BindConstantBuffer will accept offset
- RESOURCE_STATES refactor, they can be combined now in the barriers
- many other refactors
- gbuffer normals removed, implemented visibility buffer
- bindless decals, bindless lightmaps, bindless hair particles, bindless software path tracing
- hair particles path tracing support
- path tracing eye adaption supported
- Surfel GI (experimental)
* dx12 async compute
* compute queue can't do PIXEL_SHADER_RESOURCE barrier, so adding new resource states for SHADER_RESOURCE_COMPUTE
* rtshadow layout fix
* acceleration structure build moved earlier into the frame, and synced implicitly
* vulkan async compute
* temp button to switch between async on/off
* documentation update
* vulkan async compute on separate queue family
* vulkan: enable concurrent sharing mode for resources if queue families differ
* version bump, revert async compute debug button
