- Eyes render under a VK_EXT_fragment_density_map: full rate around each eye's forward direction,
2x2 then 4x4 pixel blocks towards the edges ([vr] foveation = off|low|medium|high, default off).
XR_FB_foveation cannot help here: the runtime's maps only shape passes drawing into its
swapchain, and the eyes reach it through a copy.
- aurora-main/patches/dawn/aurora_fdm.inc: Dawn enables the extension only on request and for
dynamic rendering, flags every render pipeline, and chains an immutable RG8 map into any pass
whose first color attachment is a view bound to one (ABI: include/aurora/dawn_fdm_abi.h).
- android/Build-QuestDawn.ps1 builds the pinned Dawn revision with those patches for arm64
(dawn-build CI flags, protobuf off) into a cached package; Build-Quest.ps1 links it
(-StockDawn opts out) and AuroraDawnProvider.cmake enables the ABI from its manifest.
- lib/gfx/foveation.hpp generates the maps (32 px per texel, densities 255/127/63); an eye is
foveated only when single_pass_eyes draws it in one render pass. Menus never are.
- Live level from the headset panel's VR tab and the launcher; the launch decides whether the
device has maps. debug.wiicompiled.foveation and debug.wiicompiled.fdm for A/B.
- Tests: Foveation cases in gx_fifo_tests, mkw_vr_config_tests. Docs: OPENXR.md, quest-port.md.

Bump the backend to 0.2.43 and the Quest app to versionCode 4 / 0.4.0-quest
for the release that brings heurazy's cockpit and hand steering, and the
flat-screen mode and camera switching Darthcircuit suggested.

First person already seats you in the cockpit, so hand steering belongs with it:
the stick keeps steering until a grip actually takes hold of the wheel, and
nothing else changes until it does. "yaw_pitch" becomes the default anchor for
the same reason - from the driver's seat the vehicle's own climb reads as the
ground rising, where a level horizon reads as the kart sinking away.
Both defaults move together in runtime_config.h, the fresh-config template, the
F10 menu's reset, and both launchers, which mirror the runtime's constants. The
menu's reset also puts the rotation combo back on the default rather than on
"yaw", and now covers hand steering with the other cockpit keys.

The Quest launcher's Settings > VR gains a Seat choice (cockpit or
custom, first_person_seat) and a Hand steering switch (hand_steering, off
by default like the runtime), which is only enabled in the first-person
cockpit because the wheel belongs to that seat. About credits heurazy for
the turning steering wheel and hand steering. The runtime side was already
shared with the Quest build.
OPENXR.md records what one Quest 3 race showed: the kart's own wheel
animated (228 draws a frame) with the race camera's view matching the
scene's exactly, but the driver's eye was never calibrated and the
fallback put the wheel centre about 13 cm above eye level. The Quest
declares no hand-tracking permission, so hands are the procedural gloves.

Bump the backend to 0.2.42 and the Quest app to versionCode 3 / 0.3.0-quest.
This release carries the Windows Vulkan OpenXR binding, so it ships the custom
Dawn DLL that exports the Aurora Vulkan ABI.

The native-registration scan only knew PPC_NATIVE_OVERRIDE, so every
GX_DEFERRED_OVERRIDE_VOID was missing from the index; the deferred form
registers `symbol` and posts the hand-written `symbol_gx`.
A Retro Rewind kit built from a translation without the Retro-WFC payload now
refuses to package instead of crashing on entering WFC, and on Android ImGui
keeps off SDL's cursor, which ART aborts on from a guest fiber's stack.

- Introduced a new GX thread to handle the rendering pipeline, allowing the game thread to post commands without blocking.
- Added `gx_thread.h` and `gx_thread.cpp` to manage the command ring buffer and thread synchronization.
- Updated `vi.cpp` to utilize the GX thread for rendering tasks, improving frame pacing and responsiveness.
- Modified `main.cpp` to configure and start the GX thread, ensuring it integrates with the existing rendering workflow.
- Enhanced `openxr_integration.cpp` to register the GX thread with OpenXR for better performance in VR scenarios.
- Refactored `settings_overlay.cpp` to remove unnecessary waits for the frame worker, as the overlay now draws directly into the game thread's ImGui frame.
- Improved error handling and logging in the GX thread to capture exceptions during command execution.
Bump the backend to 0.2.41 and the Quest app to versionCode 2 / 0.2.0-quest.
They ship together because the app's game kit fingerprints runtime/include,
and a 0.2.40 installation's headers no longer match it, so WheelWizard's
Build for Quest needs the matching setup.
