gpu_vk_res.ludic gains what gpu.ludic's texture and buffer handles stand for on Vulkan:
- gvk_tex_storage / _upload / _mips / _read / _release: an image and view per handle, a full mip
chain when pixels come with it (the renderer asks for mipmaps after the upload) and one level
for a target, every level in SHADER_READ_ONLY between uses. Uploads are converted to what the
image stores: a missing alpha filled opaque (three-channel formats are stored with four), 16-bit
PNG samples byte-swapped when the unpack state says so, 32-bit float HDR halved into half
floats. Mips are blitted down level by level; a read-back brings level 0 home.
- gvk_sampler: one VkSampler per filter / wrap / compare / anisotropy combination, made when first
asked for, with GL's defaults where the renderer set nothing.
- gvk_buf_*: vertex, index and instance buffers behind one handle, kept when an upload fits.
Host-visible while the backend comes up.
gpu_vk.ludic switches on anisotropic sampling where the device has it and reads its limit.
examples/rendering/vk_resources.ludic checks it all: VKRES OK, validation-clean, every allocation
freed, on the RTX 3070 Ti (16x anisotropy) and on MoltenVK. One run on the Mac crashed while a
headless game run was using the GPU and did not come back in two reruns. OpenGL frames
byte-identical at the five viewpoints; 59 self-tests pass.

The Vulkan backend is two files. gpu_vk.ludic is the device, memory and one-shot commands,
pure Vulkan, and still runs on its own (vk_device.ludic). gpu_vk_res.ludic is the resources in
the renderer's vocabulary - OpenGL's names for formats, filters and blend factors, which only
exist where Gl.* is named - starting with the format table. r3d.ludic imports both after
gpu.ludic; nothing calls them yet.
OpenGL frames byte-identical at the five viewpoints; 59 self-tests pass; VKDEVICE OK.
