Lepton's Vulkan driver has no external memory or sync fd extensions,
so the Steam Frame gets a native SteamOS build instead. Its backend is
the PC's: OpenXR creates Dawn's own Vulkan instance and device, and the
eyes are copied into the swapchain on Dawn's queue, with nothing shared
between devices.
- openxr_vulkan_win32 and Aurora's vulkan_win32_interop now compile on
desktop Linux. Dawn links statically there, so the bridge calls the
patched package's hooks directly, and exists only when the package's
aurora-dawn.json declares the Vulkan hook ABI (AuroraDawnProvider
turns AuroraVulkanAbi into AURORA_DAWN_VULKAN_HOOKS); a stock Dawn
keeps the stubs and VR falls back to the desktop.
- openxr_integration.cpp gains a Linux branch: XR_KHR_vulkan_enable2,
the timespec clock, refresh rate, performance level, the Frame
controllers and eye gaze; fragment density maps are requested on
Linux as on the Quest (fdm.cpp and gpu.cpp, AURORA_FDM=0/1 overrides).
- Controller motion uses XR_KHR_convert_timespec_time on any Linux.
- CMake: Vulkan headers are fetched for Linux OpenXR builds, the
headset option is MKW_HEADSET on Android and Linux, and Linux aarch64
builds take MKW_LINUX_CPU (cortex-x4 for the Steam Frame, else native).

The Steam Frame runs Android apps through Lepton with SteamVR's OpenXR
runtime. A third headset flavour, steamFrame, targets it:
- -mcpu=cortex-x4+nosve for the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 (its firmware does
not expose SVE, which clang otherwise auto-vectorises with), from one
flavour-to-CPU map that the kit export now reads instead of guessing
from the variant name.
- MKW_ANDROID_HEADSET=steam_frame defines MKW_HEADSET_STEAM_FRAME for
the runtime's own targets, for Frame-specific defaults.
- A manifest without the Horizon OS entries, and FrameEntryActivity as
the single real MAIN/LAUNCHER activity with the Khronos and Oculus VR
categories, which Lepton needs to start an app in VR. It opens the
setup panel and, when the selected game can start, the game on top.
- XR_VALVE_frame_controller_interaction: the Frame controller profile
with its left D-pad (new dpad_* actions, the Wii Remote's D-pad or the
gamepad's), View as menu and the left shoulder as the panel button.
Also requested on Windows for SteamVR streaming to a Frame.
- Build-Quest.ps1, Build-QuestGame.ps1 and Run-Quest.ps1 take
-Headset frame.

- Introduced a new configuration option for object culling in VR, allowing the game to hide objects outside the camera's view.
- Implemented native replacements for the Mario Kart functions responsible for scene culling, ensuring accurate behavior in VR.
- Added a new header file `mkw_vr_culling.h` to define the culling logic and structures.
- Created `mkw_vr_culling.cpp` to implement the culling logic, including frustum intersection checks and screen info updates.
- Updated runtime configuration to include the new object culling option, with appropriate getters and setters.
- Enhanced the settings overlay to allow users to toggle object culling in VR.
- Added tests in `vr_culling_tests.cpp` to validate the frustum intersection logic and ensure compliance with original behavior.
- Updated CMake files to include new source files and tests.
