@alloc_ok with its reason on what is made once per resource and kept (textures, programs, samplers,
views, layouts, memory blocks, the pipeline cache in gvk_pipe_build), on resize and swapchain
remakes, on screenshots and dumps, on a world being set up (streams, layers, water, post, bakes), on
loads (gltf_load, skin_load, tex_load*, png_decode, fonts) and on R3D_PROF / drawstats.
gltf_cached's hit path is its own and makes nothing; the miss (gltf_cached_load) is declared.
m4_look_at (now over m4_look_at_xyz) and m4_inverse work on scalars, and cam_update makes no scratch.
Left: lazy first-use starts, error and debug prints, and scratch made and freed each call (churn,
plan 25.3). Compiled (steady, and ludic deps over the game).

A freed texture or buffer id goes on a spare list the next one takes; tex_note_size keeps sizes by id.
model_release frees prims, meshes, material names, the skin and leaves gltf_cached. actor_release
takes an actor off the stage and actor_new reuses its record (ECS's Things come and go all day).
steady.ludic: an actor round at 0 bytes over 2000.

A game placing props while it plays (a sign an animal leaves, a fish, a bobber) loaded each through
gltf_load, which reads the file and parses its document every time. gltf_cached finds the same
(dir, file, node) by comparing the names in place and hands back the model the first load made;
a model whose document is read after the load (ludic.anim's clips) still goes through gltf_load.
