Improve the animated_mesh example (#17328)
# Objective

Building upon https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/pull/17191, improve the
`animated_mesh` example by removing code, adding comments, and making
the example more c&p'able.

## Solution

- Split the setup function in two to clarify what the example is
demonstrating.
    - `setup_mesh_and_animation` is the demonstration.
    - `setup_camera_and_environment` just sets up the example app.
- Changed the animation playing to use `AnimationPlayer` directly
instead of creating `AnimationTransitions`.
    - This appears sufficient when only playing a single animation.
- Added a comment pointing users to an example of multiple animations.
- Changed the animation to be the run cycle.
- I think it got accidentally changed to the idle in
[#17191](https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/pull/17191), so this is
reverting back to the original.
- Note that we can improve it to select the animation by name if
[#16529](https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/pull/16529) lands.
- Renamed `FOX_PATH` to a more neutral `GLTF_PATH`.
- Updated the example descriptions to mention the fox.
- This adds a little character and hints that the example involves
character animation.
- Removed a seemingly redundant `AnimationGraphHandle` component.
- Removed an unnecessary `clone()`.
- Added various comments.

## Notes

- A draft of this PR was discussed on Discord:
https://discord.com/channels/691052431525675048/1326910663972618302/1326920498663133348
- There was discord discussion on whether a component is "inserted
onto", "inserted into" or "added to" an entity.
- "Added to" is most common in code and docs, and seems best to me. But
it awkwardly differs from the name of `EntityCommands::insert`.
    - This PR prefers "added to".
- I plan to follow up this PR with similar changes to the
`animated_mesh_control` and `animated_mesh_events` examples.
    - But I could roll them into this PR if requested.

## Testing

`cargo run --example animated_mesh`

Key render phases off the main world view entity, not the render world view entity. (#16942)
We won't be able to retain render phases from frame to frame if the keys
are unstable. It's not as simple as simply keying off the main world
entity, however, because some main world entities extract to multiple
render world entities. For example, directional lights extract to
multiple shadow cascades, and point lights extract to one view per
cubemap face. Therefore, we key off a new type, `RetainedViewEntity`,
which contains the main entity plus a *subview ID*.

This is part of the preparation for retained bins.

Allow users to customize history length in FrameTimeDiagnosticsPlugin (#17259)
# Objective

I have an application where I'd like to measure average frame rate over
the entire life of the application, and it would be handy if I could
just configure this on the existing `FrameTimeDiagnosticsPlugin`.

Probably fixes #10948?

## Solution

Add `max_history_length` to `FrameTimeDiagnosticsPlugin`, and because
`smoothing_factor` seems to be based on history length, add that too.

## Discussion

I'm not totally sure that `DEFAULT_MAX_HISTORY_LENGTH` is a great
default for `FrameTimeDiagnosticsPlugin` (or any diagnostic?). That's
1/3 of a second at typical game frame rates. Moreover, the default print
interval for `LogDiagnosticsPlugin` is 1 second. So when the two are
combined, you are printing the average over the last third of the
duration between now and the previous print, which seems a bit wonky.
(related: #11429)

I'm pretty sure this default value discussed and the current value
wasn't totally arbitrary though.

Maybe it would be nice for `Diagnostic` to have a
`with_max_history_length_and_also_calculate_a_good_default_smoothing_factor`
method? And then make an explicit smoothing factor in
`FrameTimeDiagnosticsPlugin` optional?

Or add a `new(max_history_length: usize)` method to
`FrameTimeDiagnosticsPlugin` that sets a reasonable default
`smoothing_factor`? edit: This one seems like a no-brainer, doing it.

## Alternatives

It's really easy to roll your own `FrameTimeDiagnosticsPlugin`, but that
might not be super interoperable with, for example, third party FPS
overlays. Still, might be the right call.

## Testing

`cargo run --example many_sprites` (modified to use a custom
`max_history_length`)

## Migration Guide

`FrameTimeDiagnosticsPlugin` now contains two fields. Use
`FrameTimeDiagnosticsPlugin::default()` to match Bevy's previous
behavior or, for example, `FrameTimeDiagnosticsPlugin::new(60)` to
configure it.

Higher quality bicubic lightmap sampling (#16740)
# Objective
- Closes https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/issues/14322.

## Solution
- Implement fast 4-sample bicubic filtering based on this shader toy
https://www.shadertoy.com/view/4df3Dn, with a small speedup from a ghost
of tushima presentation.

## Testing

- Did you test these changes? If so, how?
  - Ran on lightmapped example. Practically no difference in that scene.
- Are there any parts that need more testing?
  - Lightmapping a better scene.

## Changelog
- Lightmaps now have a higher quality bicubic sampling method (off by
default).

Rename PickingBehavior to Pickable (#17266)
# Objective

PR #17225 allowed for sprite picking to be opt-in. After some
discussion, it was agreed that `PickingBehavior` should be used to
opt-in to sprite picking behavior for entities. This leads to
`PickingBehavior` having two purposes: mark an entity for use in a
backend, and describe how it should be picked. Discussion led to the
name `Pickable`making more sense (also: this is what the component was
named before upstreaming).

A follow-up pass will be made after this PR to unify backends.

## Solution

Replace all instances of `PickingBehavior` and `picking_behavior` with
`Pickable` and `pickable`, respectively.

## Testing

CI

## Migration Guide

Change all instances of `PickingBehavior` to `Pickable`.

Fix text alignment for unbounded text (#17270)
# Objective

Fixes #16783

## Solution

Works around a `cosmic-text` bug or limitation by triggering a re-layout
with the calculated width from the first layout run. See linked issue.

Credit to @ickshonpe for the clever solution.

## Performance

This has a significant performance impact only on unbounded text that
are not `JustifyText::Left`, which is still a bit of a bummer because
text2d performance in 0.15.1 is already not great. But this seems better
than alignment not working.

||many_text2d nfc re|many_text2d nfc re center|
|-|-|-|
|unbounded-layout-no-fix|3.06|3.10|
|unbounded-layout-fix|3.05  -0.2%|2.71 🟥 -12.5%|

## Testing

I added a centered text to the `text2d` example.

`cargo run --example text2d`

We should look at other text examples and stress tests. I haven't tested
as thoroughly as I would like, so help testing that this doesn't break
something in UI would be appreciated.

Add a simple directional UI navigation example (#17224)
# Objective

Gamepad / directional navigation needs an example, for both teaching and
testing purposes.

## Solution

- Add a simple grid-based example.
- Fix an intermittent panic caused by a race condition with bevy_a11y
- Clean up small issues noticed in bevy_input_focus


![image](https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/3a924255-0cd6-44a5-9bb7-b2c400a22d7e)

## To do: this PR

- [x] figure out why "enter" isn't doing anything
- [x] change button color on interaction rather than printing
- [x] add on-screen directions
- [x] move to an asymmetric grid to catch bugs
- [x] ~~fix colors not resetting on button press~~ lol this is mostly
just a problem with hacking `Interaction` for this
- [x] swap to using observers + bubbling, rather than `Interaction`

## To do: future work

- when I increase the button size, such that there is no line break, the
text on the buttons is no longer centered :( EDIT: this is
https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/issues/16783
- add gamepad stick navigation
- add tools to find the nearest populated quadrant to make diagonal
inputs work
- add a `add_edges` method to `DirectionalNavigationMap`
- add a `add_grid` method to `DirectionalNavigationMap`
- make the example's layout more complex and realistic
- add tools to automatically generate this list
- add button shake on failed navigation rather than printing an error
- make Pressed events easier to mock: default fields, PointerId::Focus

## Testing

`cargo run --example directional_navigation`

Make sprite picking opt-in (#17225)
# Objective

Fixes #16903.

## Solution

- Make sprite picking opt-in by requiring a new `SpritePickingCamera`
component for cameras and usage of a new `Pickable` component for
entities.
- Update the `sprite_picking` example to reflect these changes.
- Some reflection cleanup (I hope that's ok).

## Testing

Ran the `sprite_picking` example

## Open Questions

<del>
   <ul>
    <li>Is the name `SpritePickable` appropriate?</li>
    <li>Should `SpritePickable` be in `bevy_sprite::prelude?</li>
  </ul> 
</del>

## Migration Guide

The sprite picking backend is now strictly opt-in using the
`SpritePickingCamera` and `Pickable` components. You should add the
`Pickable` component any entities that you want sprite picking to be
enabled for, and mark their respective cameras with
`SpritePickingCamera`.

Allow clippy::too_many_arguments to lint without warnings (#17249)
# Objective
Many instances of `clippy::too_many_arguments` linting happen to be on
systems - functions which we don't call manually, and thus there's not
much reason to worry about the argument count.

## Solution
Allow `clippy::too_many_arguments` globally, and remove all lint
attributes related to it.

## Solution
Removes any instances of `#[allow(clippy::type_complexity)]` and

## Testing
`cargo clippy` ran without errors or warnings.

Rename animated fox examples to better communicate their purpose (#17239)
Fixes #17192.

Replaces "animated_fox" with "animated_mesh".

I considered a few different names - should it say "skinned_mesh" to be
precise? Should it mention gltf? But "animated_mesh" seems intuitive and
keeps it short.

## Testing

- Ran all three examples (Windows 10).

Upstream DebugPickingPlugin from bevy_mod_picking (#17177)
# Objective

The debug features (`DebugPickingPlugin`) from `bevy_mod_picking` were
not upstreamed with the rest of the core changes, this PR reintroduces
it for usage inside `bevy_dev_tools`

## Solution

Vast majority of this code is taken as-is from `bevy_mod_picking` aside
from changes to ensure compilation and code style, as such @aevyrie was
added as the co-author for this change.

### Main changes
* `multiselection` support - the relevant code was explicitly not
included in the process of upstreaming the rest of the package, so it
also has been omitted here.
* `bevy_egui` support - the old package had a preference for using
`bevy_egui` instead of `bevy_ui` if possible, I couldn't see a way to
support this in a core crate, so this has been removed.

Relevant code has been added to the `bevy_dev_tools` crate instead of
`bevy_picking` as it is a better fit and requires a dependency on
`bevy_ui` for drawing debug elements.

### Minor changes
* Changed the debug text size from `60` to `12` as the former was so
large as to be unreadable in the new example.

## Testing
* `cargo run -p ci`
* Added a new example in `dev_tools/picking_debug` and visually verified
the in-window results and the console messages

add line height to TextFont (#16614)
# Objective

- Allow users to customize the line height of text.
- Implements #16085

## Solution

- Add a `line_height` field to `TextFont` to feed into `cosmic_text`'s
`Metrics`.

## Testing

- Tested on my own game, and worked exactly as I wanted.
- My game is only 2D, so I only tested `Text2d`. `Text` still needs
tested, but I imagine it'll work fine.

Split up animated_fox example (#17191)
# Objective

Our `animated_fox` example used to be a bare-bones example of how to
spawn an animated gltf and play a single animation.

I think that's a valuable example, and the current `animated_fox`
example is doing way too much. Users who are trying to understand how
our animation system are presented with an enormous amount of
information that may not be immediately relevant.

Over the past few releases, I've been migrating a simple app of mine
where the only animation I need is a single gltf that starts playing a
single animation when it is loaded. It has been a slight struggle to
wade through changes to the animation system to figure out the minimal
amount of things required to accomplish this.

Somewhat motivated by this [recent reddit
thread](https://www.reddit.com/r/rust/comments/1ht93vl/comment/m5c0nc9/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=mweb3x&utm_name=mweb3xcss&utm_term=1)
where Bevy and animation got a mention.

## Solution

- Split `animated_fox` into three separate examples
  - `animated_fox` - Loads and immediately plays a single animation
  - `animated_fox_control` - Shows how to control animations
- `animated_fox_events` - Shows fancy particles when the fox's feet hit
the ground
- Some minor drive-by tidying of these examples

I have created this PR after playing around with the idea and liking how
it turned out, but the duplication isn't totally ideal and there's some
slight overlap with other examples and inconsistencies:

- `animation_events` is simplified and not specific to "loaded animated
scenes" and seems valuable on its own
- `animation_graph` also uses a fox

I am happy to close this if there's no consensus that it's a good idea /
step forward for these examples.

## Testing

`cargo run --example animated_fox`
`cargo run --example animated_fox_control`
`cargo run --example animated_fox_events`

Introduce two-level bins for multidrawable meshes. (#16898)
Currently, our batchable binned items are stored in a hash table that
maps bin key, which includes the batch set key, to a list of entities.
Multidraw is handled by sorting the bin keys and accumulating adjacent
bins that can be multidrawn together (i.e. have the same batch set key)
into multidraw commands during `batch_and_prepare_binned_render_phase`.

This is reasonably efficient right now, but it will complicate future
work to retain indirect draw parameters from frame to frame. Consider
what must happen when we have retained indirect draw parameters and the
application adds a bin (i.e. a new mesh) that shares a batch set key
with some pre-existing meshes. (That is, the new mesh can be multidrawn
with the pre-existing meshes.) To be maximally efficient, our goal in
that scenario will be to update *only* the indirect draw parameters for
the batch set (i.e. multidraw command) containing the mesh that was
added, while leaving the others alone. That means that we have to
quickly locate all the bins that belong to the batch set being modified.

In the existing code, we would have to sort the list of bin keys so that
bins that can be multidrawn together become adjacent to one another in
the list. Then we would have to do a binary search through the sorted
list to find the location of the bin that was just added. Next, we would
have to widen our search to adjacent indexes that contain the same batch
set, doing expensive comparisons against the batch set key every time.
Finally, we would reallocate the indirect draw parameters and update the
stored pointers to the indirect draw parameters that the bins store.

By contrast, it'd be dramatically simpler if we simply changed the way
bins are stored to first map from batch set key (i.e. multidraw command)
to the bins (i.e. meshes) within that batch set key, and then from each
individual bin to the mesh instances. That way, the scenario above in
which we add a new mesh will be simpler to handle. First, we will look
up the batch set key corresponding to that mesh in the outer map to find
an inner map corresponding to the single multidraw command that will
draw that batch set. We will know how many meshes the multidraw command
is going to draw by the size of that inner map. Then we simply need to
reallocate the indirect draw parameters and update the pointers to those
parameters within the bins as necessary. There will be no need to do any
binary search or expensive batch set key comparison: only a single hash
lookup and an iteration over the inner map to update the pointers.

This patch implements the above technique. Because we don't have
retained bins yet, this PR provides no performance benefits. However, it
opens the door to maximally efficient updates when only a small number
of meshes change from frame to frame.

The main churn that this patch causes is that the *batch set key* (which
uniquely specifies a multidraw command) and *bin key* (which uniquely
specifies a mesh *within* that multidraw command) are now separate,
instead of the batch set key being embedded *within* the bin key.

In order to isolate potential regressions, I think that at least #16890,
#16836, and #16825 should land before this PR does.

## Migration Guide

* The *batch set key* is now separate from the *bin key* in
`BinnedPhaseItem`. The batch set key is used to collect multidrawable
meshes together. If you aren't using the multidraw feature, you can
safely set the batch set key to `()`.

Remove tracing re-export from bevy_utils (#17161)
# Objective

- Contributes to #11478

## Solution

- Made `bevy_utils::tracing` `doc(hidden)`
- Re-exported `tracing` from `bevy_log` for end-users
- Added `tracing` directly to crates that need it.

## Testing

- CI

---

## Migration Guide

If you were importing `tracing` via `bevy::utils::tracing`, instead use
`bevy::log::tracing`. Note that many items within `tracing` are also
directly re-exported from `bevy::log` as well, so you may only need
`bevy::log` for the most common items (e.g., `warn!`, `trace!`, etc.).
This also applies to the `log_once!` family of macros.

## Notes

- While this doesn't reduce the line-count in `bevy_utils`, it further
decouples the internal crates from `bevy_utils`, making its eventual
removal more feasible in the future.
- I have just imported `tracing` as we do for all dependencies. However,
a workspace dependency may be more appropriate for version management.

Remove everything except Instant from bevy_utils::time (#17158)
# Objective

- Contributes to #11478
- Contributes to #16877

## Solution

- Removed everything except `Instant` from `bevy_utils::time`

## Testing

- CI

---

## Migration Guide

If you relied on any of the following from `bevy_utils::time`:

- `Duration`
- `TryFromFloatSecsError`

Import these directly from `core::time` regardless of platform target
(WASM, mobile, etc.)

If you relied on any of the following from `bevy_utils::time`:

- `SystemTime`
- `SystemTimeError`

Instead import these directly from either `std::time` or `web_time` as
appropriate for your target platform.

## Notes

`Duration` and `TryFromFloatSecsError` are both re-exports from
`core::time` regardless of whether they are used from `web_time` or
`std::time`, so there is no value gained from re-exporting them from
`bevy_utils::time` as well. As for `SystemTime` and `SystemTimeError`,
no Bevy internal crates or examples rely on these types. Since Bevy
doesn't have a `Time<Wall>` resource for interacting with wall-time (and
likely shouldn't need one), I think removing these from `bevy_utils`
entirely and waiting for a use-case to justify inclusion is a reasonable
path forward.

METIS-based meshlet generation (#16947)
# Objective
Improve DAG building for virtual geometry

## Solution

- Use METIS to group triangles into meshlets which lets us minimize
locked vertices which improves simplification, instead of using meshopt
which prioritizes culling efficiency. Also some other minor tweaks.
- Currently most meshlets have 126 triangles, and not 128. Fixing this
might involve calling METIS recursively ourselves to manually bisect the
graph, not sure. Not going to attempt to fix this in this PR.

## Testing

- Did you test these changes? If so, how?
  - Tested on bunny.glb and cliff.glb
- Are there any parts that need more testing?
  - No

Revert "Fix sprite performance regression since retained render world (#17078)" (#17123)
# Objective

Fixes #17098

It seems that it's not totally obvious how to fix this, but that
reverting might be part of the solution anyway.

Let's get the repo back into a working state.

## Solution

Revert the [recent
optimization](https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/pull/17078) that broke
"many-to-one main->render world entities" for 2d.

## Testing

`cargo run --example text2d`
`cargo run --example sprite_slice`

UI Debug Overlay show_hidden and show_clipped options (#17097)
# Objective

The UI debug overlay draws an outline for every UI node even if it is
invisible or clipped.
Disable debug outlines for hidden and clipped nodes by default and add
options to renable them if needed.

## Solution

* Add `show_hidden` and `show_clipped` fields to `UiDebugOptions`:
```rust
    /// Show outlines for non-visible UI nodes
    pub show_hidden: bool,
    /// Show outlines for clipped sections of UI nodes
    pub show_clipped: bool,
```

* Only extract debug outlines for hidden and clipped UI nodes if the
respective field in `UiDebugOptions` is set to `true`.

## Testing

Also added some extra features to the `testbed_ui` example that
demonstrate the new options:

cargo run --example testbed_ui --features "bevy_ui_debug"

Refactor and simplify custom projections (#17063)
# Objective

- Fixes https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/issues/16556
- Closes https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/issues/11807

## Solution

- Simplify custom projections by using a single source of truth -
`Projection`, removing all existing generic systems and types.
- Existing perspective and orthographic structs are no longer components
- I could dissolve these to simplify further, but keeping them around
was the fast way to implement this.
- Instead of generics, introduce a third variant, with a trait object.
- Do an object safety dance with an intermediate trait to allow cloning
boxed camera projections. This is a normal rust polymorphism papercut.
You can do this with a crate but a manual impl is short and sweet.

## Testing

- Added a custom projection example

---

## Showcase

- Custom projections and projection handling has been simplified.
- Projection systems are no longer generic, with the potential for many
different projection components on the same camera.
- Instead `Projection` is now the single source of truth for camera
projections, and is the only projection component.
- Custom projections are still supported, and can be constructed with
`Projection::custom()`.

## Migration Guide

- `PerspectiveProjection` and `OrthographicProjection` are no longer
components. Use `Projection` instead.
- Custom projections should no longer be inserted as a component.
Instead, simply set the custom projection as a value of `Projection`
with `Projection::custom()`.

Rename track_change_detection flag to track_location (#17075)
# Objective

- As stated in the related issue, this PR is to better align the feature
flag name with what it actually does and the plans for the future.
- Fixes #16852 

## Solution

- Simple find / replace

## Testing

- Local run of `cargo run -p ci`

## Migration Guide

The `track_change_detection` feature flag has been renamed to
`track_location` to better reflect its extended capabilities.

Fix sprite performance regression since retained render world (#17078)
# Objective

- Fix sprite rendering performance regression since retained render
world changes
- The retained render world changes moved `ExtractedSprites` from using
the highly-optimised `EntityHasher` with an `Entity` to using
`FixedHasher` with `(Entity, MainEntity)`. This was enough to regress
framerate in bevymark by 25%.

## Solution

- Move the render world entity into a member of `ExtractedSprite` and
change `ExtractedSprites` to use `MainEntityHashMap` for its storage
- Disable sprite picking in bevymark

## Testing

## Migration Guide

- `ExtractedSprites` is now using `MainEntityHashMap` for storage, which
is keyed on `MainEntity`.
- The render world entity corresponding to an `ExtractedSprite` is now
stored in the `render_entity` member of it.

Fix confusing comment in pbr example (#16996)
# Objective

After a recent fix for a panic in the pbr example (#16976), the code
contains the following comment:

```rust
// This system relies on system parameters that are not available at start
// Ignore parameter failures so that it will run when possible
.add_systems(Update, environment_map_load_finish.never_param_warn())
```

However, this explanation is incorrect. `EnvironmentMapLabel` is
available at start. The real issue is that it is no longer available
once it has been removed by `environment_map_load_finish`.

## Solution

- Remove confusing/incorrect comment and `never_param_warn()`.
- Make `Single<Entity, With<EnvironmentMapLabel>>` optional in
`environment_map_load_finish`, and check that the entity has not yet
been despawned.

Since it is expected that an entity is no longer there once it has been
despawned, it seems better to me to handle this case in
`environment_map_load_finish`.

## Testing

Ran `cargo run --example pbr`.

Prefer Display over Debug (#16112)
# Objective

Fixes #16104

## Solution

I removed all instances of `:?` and put them back one by one where it
caused an error.

I removed some bevy_utils helper functions that were only used in 2
places and don't add value. See: #11478

## Testing

CI should catch the mistakes

## Migration Guide

`bevy::utils::{dbg,info,warn,error}` were removed. Use
`bevy::utils::tracing::{debug,info,warn,error}` instead.

# Objective

- Fixes #16959
- The `pbr.rs` example in the 3d section panicked because of the changes

adding the fallible system into the app

## Testing

- Tested on my machine via `cargo r --example pbr`, it built and ran
successfully

Get lightmaps working in deferred rendering. (#16836)
A previous PR, #14599, attempted to enable lightmaps in deferred mode,

issue, and allows bindless lightmaps to work with deferred rendering as
well.

Fix panics in scene_viewer and audio_control (#16983)
# Objective

Fixes #16978

While testing, discovered that the morph weight interface in
`scene_viewer` has been broken for a while (panics when loaded model has
morph weights), probably since #15591. Fixed that too.

While testing, saw example text in morph interface with [wrong
padding](https://bevyengine.org/learn/contribute/helping-out/creating-examples/#visual-guidelines).
Fixed that too. Left the small font size because there may be a lot of
morphs to display, so that seems intentional.

## Solution

Use normal queries and bail early

## Testing

Morph interface can be tested with
```
cargo run --example scene_viewer assets/models/animated/MorphStressTest.gltf
```

## Discussion

I noticed that this fix is different than what is happening in #16976.
Feel free to discard this for an alternative fix. I opened this anyway
to document the issue with morph weight display.

This is on top of #16966 which is required to test.

Rename "focus" in bevy_picking to "hover" (#16872)
# Objective

With the introduction of bevy_input_focus, the uses of "focus" in
bevy_picking are quite confusing and make searching hard.

Users will intuitively think these concepts are related, but they
actually aren't.

## Solution

Rename / rephrase all uses of "focus" in bevy_picking to refer to
"hover", since this is ultimately related to creating the `HoverMap`.

## Migration Guide

Various terms related to "focus" in `bevy_picking` have been renamed to
refer to "hover" to avoid confusion with `bevy_input_focus`. In
particular:

- The `update_focus` system has been renamed to `generate_hovermap`
- `PickSet::Focus` and `PostFocus` have been renamed to `Hover` and
`PostHover`
- The `bevy_picking::focus` module has been renamed to
`bevy_picking::hover`
- The `is_focus_enabled` field on `PickingPlugin` has been renamed to
`is_hover_enabled`
- The `focus_should_run` run condition has been renamed to
`hover_should_run`

Set panic as default fallible system param behavior (#16638)
# Objective

Fixes: #16578

## Solution

This is a patch fix, proper fix requires a breaking change.

Added `Panic` enum variant and using is as the system meta default.
Warn once behavior can be enabled same way disabling panic (originally
disabling wans) is.

To fix an issue with the current architecture, where **all** combinator
system params get checked together,
combinator systems only check params of the first system.
This will result in old, panicking behavior on subsequent systems and
will be fixed in 0.16.

## Testing

Ran unit tests and `fallible_params` example.

# Objective

- Our benchmarks and `compile_fail` tests lag behind the rest of the

<details>
<summary>Outdated issue I was having with function reflection being
optional</summary>

The `reflection_types` example is failing in Rust-Analyzer for me, but
not a normal check.

```rust
error[E0004]: non-exhaustive patterns: `ReflectRef::Function(_)` not covered
   --> examples/reflection/reflection_types.rs:81:11

    |
126 ~         ReflectRef::Opaque(_) => {},
127 +         ReflectRef::Function(_) => todo!()
    |
```

I think it is because the following line is feature-gated:


cc0f6a8db4/examples/reflection/reflection_types.rs (L117-L122)

My theory for why this is happening is because the benchmarks enabled
`bevy_reflect`'s `function` feature, which gets merged with the rest of
the features when RA checks the workspace, but the `#[cfg(...)]` gate in
the example isn't detecting it:


cc0f6a8db4/benches/Cargo.toml (L19)

Any thoughts on how to fix this? It's not blocking, since the example
still compiles as normal, but it's just RA and the command `cargo check
--workspace --all-targets` appears to fail.

Remove bevy_core (#16897)
# Objective

- Fixes #16892

## Solution

- Removed `TypeRegistryPlugin` (`Name` is now automatically registered
with a default `App`)
- Moved `TaskPoolPlugin` to `bevy_app`
- Moved `FrameCountPlugin` to `bevy_diagnostic`
- Deleted now-empty `bevy_core`

## Testing

- CI

## Migration Guide

- `TypeRegistryPlugin` no longer exists. If you can't use a default
`App` but still need `Name` registered, do so manually with
`app.register_type::<Name>()`.
- References to `TaskPoolPlugin` and associated types will need to
import it from `bevy_app` instead of `bevy_core`
- References to `FrameCountPlugin` and associated types will need to
import it from `bevy_diagnostic` instead of `bevy_core`

Add dashed lines (#16884)
# Objective

- Fixes #16873

## Solution

- Added  `GizmoLineStyle::Dashed {gap_scale, line_scale}`
- The `gap_scale` and `line_scale` describe the lengths of the gaps and
visible line-segments in terms of line-widths. For example, if
`gap_scale == 1.0` and `line_scale == 3.0` the gaps are square and the
the visible segments are three line-widths long.
- The new `GizmoLineStyle` can be used both in 3D and 2D and with both
perspective and orthographic cameras.
- Updated the `2d_gizmos` and `3d_gizmos` examples to include the new
line-style.
- Display a warning, when using negative `gap_scale` or `line_scale`.
- Notably, `Hash` and `Eq` are manually implemented for `GizmoLineStyle`
since both are not implemented for `f32` which prevents deriving these
traits for `GizmoLineStyle`.

## Testing

- The results can be verified visually

---

## Showcase
The following images depict dashed lines with `gap_scale == 3.0` and
`line_scale == 5.0` in perspective 3D and orthographic 2D.

Expose text field from winit in KeyboardInput (#16864)
# Objective

Allow handling of dead keys on some keyboard layouts.

In some cases, dead keys were impossible to get using the
`KeyboardInput` event. This information is already present in the
underlying winit `KeyEvent`, but it wasn't exposed.

## Solution

Expose the `text` field from winit's `KeyEvent` in `KeyboardInput`.

This logic is inspired egui's implementation here:
adfc0bebfc/crates/egui-winit/src/lib.rs (L790-L807)

## Testing

This is a new field, so it shouldn't break any existing functionality. I
tested that this change works by running the modified `text_input`
example on different keyboard layouts.

## Example

Using a Portuguese/ABNT2 keyboard layout on windows and pressing
<kbd>\~</kbd> followed by
<kbd>a</kbd>/<kbd>Space</kbd>/<kbd>d</kbd>/<kbd>\~</kbd> now generates
the following events:
```
KeyboardInput { key_code: Quote, logical_key: Dead(Some('~')), state: Pressed, text: None, repeat: false, window: 0v1#4294967296 }
KeyboardInput { key_code: KeyA, logical_key: Character("ã"), state: Pressed, text: Some("ã"), repeat: false, window: 0v1#4294967296 }

KeyboardInput { key_code: Quote, logical_key: Dead(Some('~')), state: Pressed, text: None, repeat: false, window: 0v1#4294967296 }
KeyboardInput { key_code: Space, logical_key: Space, state: Pressed, text: Some("~"), repeat: false, window: 0v1#4294967296 }

KeyboardInput { key_code: Quote, logical_key: Dead(Some('~')), state: Pressed, text: None, repeat: false, window: 0v1#4294967296 }
KeyboardInput { key_code: KeyD, logical_key: Character("d"), state: Pressed, text: Some("~d"), repeat: false, window: 0v1#4294967296 }

KeyboardInput { key_code: Quote, logical_key: Dead(Some('~')), state: Pressed, text: None, repeat: false, window: 0v1#4294967296 }
KeyboardInput { key_code: Quote, logical_key: Dead(Some('~')), state: Pressed, text: Some("~~"), repeat: false, window: 0v1#4294967296 }
```

The logic for getting an input is pretty simple: check if `text` is
`Some`. If it is, this is actual input text, otherwise it isn't.

There's a small caveat: certain keys generate control characters in the
input text, which needs to be filtered out:
```
KeyboardInput { key_code: Escape, logical_key: Escape, state: Pressed, text: Some("\u{1b}"), repeat: false, window: 0v1#4294967296 }
```

I've updated the text_input example to include egui's solution to this,
which works well.

## Migration Guide

The `KeyboardInput` event now has a new `text` field.

Support scale factor for image render targets (#16796)
# Objective

I have something of a niche use case. I have a camera rendering pixel
art with a scale factor set, and another camera that renders to an
off-screen texture which is supposed to match the main camera exactly.
However, when computing camera target info, Bevy [hardcodes a scale
factor of
1.0](116c2b02fe/crates/bevy_render/src/camera/camera.rs (L828))
for image targets which means that my main camera and my image target
camera get different `OrthographicProjections` calculated.

## Solution

This PR adds an `ImageRenderTarget` struct which allows scale factors to
be specified.

## Testing

I tested the affected examples on macOS and they still work. This is an
additive change and should not break any existing code, apart from what
is trivially fixable by following compiler error messages.

---

## Migration Guide

`RenderTarget::Image` now takes an `ImageRenderTarget` instead of a
`Handle<Image>`. You can call `handle.into()` to construct an
`ImageRenderTarget` using the same settings as before.

Change GpuImage::size from UVec2 to Extent3d (#16815)
# Objective

When preparing `GpuImage`s, we currently discard the
`depth_or_array_layers` of the `Image`'s size by converting it into a
`UVec2`.

Fixes #16715.

## Solution

Change `GpuImage::size` to `Extent3d`, and just pass that through when
creating `GpuImage`s.
Also copy the `aspect_ratio`, and `size` (now `size_2d` for
disambiguation from the field) functions from `Image` to `GpuImage` for
ease of use with 2D textures.
I originally copied all size-related functions (like `width`, and
`height`), but i think they are unnecessary considering how visible the
`size` field on `GpuImage` is compared to `Image`.

## Testing

Tested via `cargo r -p ci` for everything except docs, when generating
docs it keeps spitting out a ton of
```
error[E0554]: `#![feature]` may not be used on the stable release channel
 --> crates/bevy_dylib/src/lib.rs:1:21
  |
1 | #![cfg_attr(docsrs, feature(doc_auto_cfg))]
  | 
```
Not sure why this is happening, but it also happens without my changes,
so it's almost certainly some strange issue specific to my machine.

## Migration Guide

- `GpuImage::size` is now an `Extent3d`. To easily get 2D size, use
`size_2d()`.

Remove the type parameter from check_visibility, and only invoke it once. (#16812)
Currently, `check_visibility` is parameterized over a query filter that
specifies the type of potentially-visible object. This has the
unfortunate side effect that we need a separate system,
`mark_view_visibility_as_changed_if_necessary`, to trigger view
visibility change detection. That system is quite slow because it must
iterate sequentially over all entities in the scene.

This PR moves the query filter from `check_visibility` to a new
component, `VisibilityClass`. `VisibilityClass` stores a list of type
IDs, each corresponding to one of the query filters we used to use.
Because `check_visibility` is no longer specialized to the query filter
at the type level, Bevy now only needs to invoke it once, leading to
better performance as `check_visibility` can do change detection on the
fly rather than delegating it to a separate system.

This commit also has ergonomic improvements, as there's no need for
applications that want to add their own custom renderable components to
add specializations of the `check_visibility` system to the schedule.
Instead, they only need to ensure that the `ViewVisibility` component is
properly kept up to date. The recommended way to do this, and the way
that's demonstrated in the `custom_phase_item` and
`specialized_mesh_pipeline` examples, is to make `ViewVisibility` a
required component and to add the type ID to it in a component add hook.
This patch does this for `Mesh3d`, `Mesh2d`, `Sprite`, `Light`, and
`Node`, which means that most app code doesn't need to change at all.

Note that, although this patch has a large impact on the performance of
visibility determination, it doesn't actually improve the end-to-end
frame time of `many_cubes`. That's because the render world was already
effectively hiding the latency from
`mark_view_visibility_as_changed_if_necessary`. This patch is, however,
necessary for *further* improvements to `many_cubes` performance.

## Migration Guide

* `check_visibility` no longer takes a `QueryFilter`, and there's no
need to add it manually to your app schedule anymore for custom
rendering items. Instead, entities with custom renderable components
should add the appropriate type IDs to `VisibilityClass`. See
`custom_phase_item` for an example.

Tab navigation framework for bevy_input_focus. (#16795)
# Objective

This PR continues the work of `bevy_input_focus` by adding a pluggable
tab navigation framework.

As part of this work, `FocusKeyboardEvent` now propagates to the window
after exhausting all ancestors.

Introduce support for mixed lighting by allowing lights to opt out of contributing diffuse light to lightmapped objects. (#16761)
This PR adds support for *mixed lighting* to Bevy, whereby some parts of
the scene are lightmapped, while others take part in real-time lighting.
(Here *real-time lighting* means lighting at runtime via the PBR shader,
as opposed to precomputed light using lightmaps.) It does so by adding a
new field, `affects_lightmapped_meshes` to `IrradianceVolume` and
`AmbientLight`, and a corresponding field
`affects_lightmapped_mesh_diffuse` to `DirectionalLight`, `PointLight`,
`SpotLight`, and `EnvironmentMapLight`. By default, this value is set to
true; when set to false, the light contributes nothing to the diffuse
irradiance component to meshes with lightmaps.

Note that specular light is unaffected. This is because the correct way
to bake specular lighting is *directional lightmaps*, which we have no
support for yet.

There are two general ways I expect this field to be used:

1. When diffuse indirect light is baked into lightmaps, irradiance
volumes and reflection probes shouldn't contribute any diffuse light to
the static geometry that has a lightmap. That's because the baking tool
should have already accounted for it, and in a higher-quality fashion,
as lightmaps typically offer a higher effective texture resolution than
the light probe does.

2. When direct diffuse light is baked into a lightmap, punctual lights
shouldn't contribute any diffuse light to static geometry with a
lightmap, to avoid double-counting. It may seem odd to bake *direct*
light into a lightmap, as opposed to indirect light. But there is a use
case: in a scene with many lights, avoiding light leaks requires shadow
mapping, which quickly becomes prohibitive when many lights are
involved. Baking lightmaps allows light leaks to be eliminated on static
geometry.

A new example, `mixed_lighting`, has been added. It demonstrates a sofa
(model from the [glTF Sample Assets]) that has been lightmapped offline
using [Bakery]. It has four modes:

1. In *baked* mode, all objects are locked in place, and all the diffuse
direct and indirect light has been calculated ahead of time. Note that
the bottom of the sphere has a red tint from the sofa, illustrating that
the baking tool captured indirect light for it.

2. In *mixed direct* mode, lightmaps capturing diffuse direct and
indirect light have been pre-calculated for the static objects, but the
dynamic sphere has real-time lighting. Note that, because the diffuse
lighting has been entirely pre-calculated for the scenery, the dynamic
sphere casts no shadow. In a real app, you would typically use real-time
lighting for the most important light so that dynamic objects can shadow
the scenery and relegate baked lighting to the less important lights for
which shadows aren't as important. Also note that there is no red tint
on the sphere, because there is no global illumination applied to it. In
an actual game, you could fix this problem by supplementing the
lightmapped objects with an irradiance volume.

3. In *mixed indirect* mode, all direct light is calculated in
real-time, and the static objects have pre-calculated indirect lighting.
This corresponds to the mode that most applications are expected to use.
Because direct light on the scenery is computed dynamically, shadows are
fully supported. As in mixed direct mode, there is no global
illumination on the sphere; in a real application, irradiance volumes
could be used to supplement the lightmaps.

4. In *real-time* mode, no lightmaps are used at all, and all punctual
lights are rendered in real-time. No global illumination exists.

In the example, you can click around to move the sphere, unless you're
in baked mode, in which case the sphere must be locked in place to be
lit correctly.

## Migration guide

* The `AmbientLight` resource, the `IrradianceVolume` component, and the
`EnvironmentMapLight` component now have `affects_lightmapped_meshes`
fields. If you don't need to use that field (for example, if you aren't
using lightmaps), you can safely set the field to true.
* `DirectionalLight`, `PointLight`, and `SpotLight` now have
`affects_lightmapped_mesh_diffuse` fields. If you don't need to use that
field (for example, if you aren't using lightmaps), you can safely set
the field to true.
