feature: Adding a WebGPU Rendering System to Vis Core DT-9593

What

This is an ⚠️ EXPERIMENTAL ⚠️ branch focused on adding a rendering system into Vis Core, specifically one implemented with WebGPU.

How

Reviewed WebGPU's rendering pipelines and related features, then experimented with different ways of providing a simplification to this interface that works well for the use cases Vis is intended for.

Some initial experiments include a twin-graph approach, where resource bindings to shaders are defined in one graph, then mapped to pipeline activations in a state-execution graph. This aims to disconnect the resource-management side of rendering ("what to render") from the rest of the state ("how to render"), and also aims to make resource management itself somewhat more intuitive and efficient than might be achieved using WebGPU directly.
