Manage the global buffer memory for vertex and indexed vertex buffers,
increase the memory size incrementally twice by default and reduce
the default buffer size, which is not suitable for typical scenarios.
This could reduce the a bit stack memory usage and improve
the portability across systems where has the stack memory
limitation and potentially gaining performance enhancement
by avoiding brutal stack memory usage at the many function calls.
added the internal functions:
- WgVertexBuffer* mpoolReqVertexBuffer(float scale = 1.0f);
- WgIndexedVertexBuffer* mpoolReqIndexedVertexBuffer(float scale = 1.0f);
- void mpoolRetVertexBuffer(WgVertexBuffer* buffer);
- void mpoolRetIndexedVertexBuffer(WgIndexedVertexBuffer* buffer);

RenderMethod effects methods would have changes:
+ update() //update the effects if any
- prepare() -> region() //update the effect drawing region
- effect() -> render() //draw the effect
Added a `clear` parameter to Canvas::draw(), allowing users to decide
whether to clear the target buffer before drawing.
To remove the paints from a canvas, please use Canvas::remove()
C++ API Removals:
- Result Canvas::clear(bool paints, bool buffer)
C++ API Modifications:
- Result Canvas::draw()
-> Result Canvas::draw(bool clear)
C API Removals:
- Tvg_Result tvg_canvas_clear(bool paints, bool buffer)
C API Modifications:
- Tvg_Result tvg_canvas_draw(Tvg_Canvas* canvas)
-> Tvg_Result tvg_canvas_draw(Tvg_Canvas* canvas, bool clear)

enhanced the rendering composition target to better support features such as
alpha blending, blending, masking, post effects, and more.
This allows rasterizers to prepare the composition context with more precise control.
Additionally, resolved a crash in the software engine's post-effect process
caused by a buffer size mismatch during XY buffer flipping.

Since we've separated ClipPath and Masking,
Masking now has a distinct and independent purpose.
API Modification:
- enum class CompositeMethod -> enum class MaskMethod
- Result Paint::composite(std::unique_ptr<Paint> target, CompositeMethod method) -> Result Paint::mask(std::unique_ptr<Paint> target, MaskMethod method)
- CompositeMethod Paint::mask(const Paint** target) const -> MaskMethod Paint::mask(const Paint** target) const

Scene effects are typically applied to modify
the final appearance of a rendered scene,
such as adding a blur effect.
Each effect would have a different number of parameters
to control its visual properties. The Scene::push() interface
uses variadic arguments to accommodate various cases.
Users should refer to the SceneEffect API documentation
and pass the parameters exactly as required for the specific
effect type. For instance, GaussianBlur expects 3 parameters
which are:
- sigma(float)[greater than 0]
- direction(int)[both: 0 / horizontal: 1 / vertical: 2]
- border(int)[extend: 0 / wrap: 1]
- quality(int)[0 ~ 100]
and, scene->push(SceneEffect::GaussianBlur, 5.0f, 0, 0, 100);
New Experimental APIs:
- SceneEffect::ClearAll
- SceneEffect::GaussianBlur
- Result Scene::push(SceneEffect effect, ...);

Streaming model for massive vertex and index creations: minimize memory allocations, range checks and other conditions
Reduce number of segments length calculations (sqrt) and bbox (min and max).
Update distances and bboxes on a whole buffer and only if necessary. For shapes without strokes compute distances not necessary at all. bbox can be updated only on the final stage of geometry workflow, but not on the each stage.
Using stack memory instead of heap. its more cache friendly and did not fragment memory, faster memory allocations (weak place of realization)
Using cache for points distances and whole path length. Updates only if necessary
Validation of geometry consistency executes only on the final stage of path life cicle. It more friendly for data streaming: no any conditions and branches.
Using binary search for strokes trimming
Pre-cached circles geometry for caps and joints
Refactored strokes elements generation functions. Code is more readable and modifiable in general. Can be easily fixed if some geometry issues will be finded
Emscripten 3.1.66 includes support for WebGPU's premultiplied canvas.
Surface configurations have been updated with premultiplied alpha mode to support this feature.
see: c82a307c61
Corrected the alpha interpolation order during blending.
This also corrected the hard mix blending result in the guitar sample.
issue: https://github.com/thorvg/thorvg/issues/2704
move instance, adapter and device creation from renderer to application
its necessary for web integration, because browser have its own mechanics to create hardware handles
this changes makes webgpu canvas more universal to use in case of system and web applications
issue: https://github.com/thorvg/thorvg/issues/2410
The anti-aliased outline color was incorrectly blended
at the multiply option.
The fix can be observed in the example:
'examples/lottie/resourcesguitar.json'
in order to do this, RenderMehthod::blend() method introduced
`bool direct` for figuring out the intermediate composition.
- used hardware blending stage for scene blending
- used AABB for scene blending
- reduced number of offfscreen buffers coping
- reduced number of render pass switching
- used render pipelines abilities to convert offscreen pixel format to screen pixel format
- removed unused shaders
Spec out this incomplete experimental feature,
this is a still promising one, we will reintroduce
this officially after 1.0 release

Deep shader refactoring for the following purposes:
* used pre-calculated gradient texture instead of per-pixel gradient map computation
* used HW wrap samples for fill spread setting
* unified gradient shader types
* used single shader module for composition instead of signle module per composition type
* used single shader module for blending for each of fill type (solid, gradient, image) instaed of signle module per blend type
* much easier add new composition and blend equations
* get rided std::string uasge
* shaders code is more readable
* bind groups creation in real time removed - performance boost
* blend and composition shaders decomposed - performance boost
* shader modules and pipeline layouts generalized - less memory usage
* shared single stencil buffer used - less memory usage
* bind groups usage simplified
* general context API simplified and generalized
* all rendering logic moved into new composition class
* ready for hardware MSAA (in next steps)
* ready for direct mask applience (in next steps)
