feat(render3d): the meadow's blades are culled on the GPU - under 1.5 ms of a MoltenVK frame for all the grass

Browse source 
- grass_cull.comp decides each candidate blade once a frame (place, ground, density, water,
  slope, frustum, colour field) and writes survivors into three bands by distance, one indirect
  draw each; grass_inst.vert only bends and places the vertices. OpenGL keeps grass.vert's
  per-vertex path; R3D_GRASS_GPU=0 compares
- compute programs take sampled textures after their buffers (gpu_compute_tex / gpu_dispatch_tex),
  and every dispatch now records a compute-to-draw memory barrier
- the blades as a sward: 4 m cells, bands with five, three and one-quad blades, spacing doubling
  every 18 m to 70 m, never narrower than a pixel; lit facing the sun and leaning to the sky,
  shadow looked up above the ground (it read the terrain as its caster), a colour ramp that
  leaves only the sheath dark, clumps, dry patches and a tussock shade worked out per blade
- scatter layers flagged grass are skipped while the blades draw (and under R3D_NOGRASS);
  R3D_BLADES, R3D_NOBLADES win over the game's setting; R3D_GRASS_S0/D0 for measuring
