gpu.ludic's calls branch to the Vulkan backend when it was chosen and came up; every OpenGL
statement is unchanged, only guarded. R3D_GFX=vk selects it in a headless run (the window's
swapchain is the next milestone) and falls back to OpenGL, with the reason, when the device or
the SPIR-V manifest is missing.
- Render state is cached as before and turned into pipelines at the draw; u_* and sampler binds
go into the variant's uniform blocks; meshes, buffers and textures are gvk_* objects;
framebuffer binds are dynamic-rendering passes; same-size blits are image copies; the screen,
the photograph read-back, the present and the screenshot go through the frame.
- Work that submits on its own (uploads, read-backs, new or freed images and buffers) flushes the
frame first, so it runs in OpenGL's order. A read may take fewer channels than the image has
(the height field's R from its RGBA32F bake). Pipeline keys name vertex bindings by order, not
buffer handle, so re-pointed instance buffers keep their pipeline.
The valley renders at frame 90 validation-clean on the RTX 3070 Ti and on MoltenVK. OpenGL frames
byte-identical at the five viewpoints; 59 self-tests pass with no GL error.
