[vr] adaptive_resolution (off by default, in the VR tab) lowers the
race's eye resolution by 10% steps, down to 70%, while new eye frames
fall below 85% of the game's 60 FPS, and raises it again after three
seconds on time. Adapted from heurazy/Wiicompiled_VR-PLUS.
The eyes render into the top-left corner of the full swapchain image
and the projection layer shows only that corner, so the compositor
upscales them and no swapchain is recreated, unlike render_scale. The
Linux same-device bridge now copies an eye smaller than its target;
the Quest's bridge and layer already did. The PC's D3D12 path copies
whole eyes, so the setting is not offered on Windows.

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).

- Added SetRenderScale method to both D3D12 and Vulkan backends to adjust the render scale dynamically.
- Updated eye size calculations to reflect the new render scale in both backends.
- Implemented ResizeWritablePair method to handle resizing of swapchains based on the requested eye sizes.
- Modified BeginFrame methods to ensure swapchains are resized appropriately before rendering.
- Enhanced error handling to maintain current eye sizes when the requested sizes cannot be allocated.
- Added tests to validate render scale functionality, ensuring correct behavior when scaling up and down, including handling of refused sizes.
- The pacing thread aims each immersive window eye through the window itself (AimEyesThroughWindow):
it keeps its position but looks square-on at the window's plane through an off-axis frustum just
around it, so the eye image is the window, at the display's pixel density (about 680x380 per eye
at render_scale 0.8 instead of 1344x1408), with a two-pixel border the mask leaves transparent.
The frame's views carry that pose and field of view to the projection layer.
- vulkan_interop.cpp copies an eye smaller than its AHardwareBuffer into the buffer's corner, and
the Quest layer's imageRect is the rendered part of the swapchain image.
- These eyes are not foveated: their field of view follows the head, which would rebuild the
density map every frame.
- Quest only (kWindowShapedEyesSupported); the PC backends copy whole eyes and keep masking them.
debug.wiicompiled.window_eyes 0 renders them whole and masked again for A/B timing.
- Quest 3, paused Retro Rewind race, render_scale 1.0: Immersive window runs the GPU at level 1
(456 MHz, app GPU 11.0 ms, eyes 8.4 ms) where Immersive needs level 3 (599-640 MHz, 13.4 ms,
10.3 ms), about 42% fewer GPU cycles. No edge artifacts, image as sharp. Docs: OPENXR.md.

- 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.

The panel was drawn into the eye images, so below a 1.00x OpenXR
resolution its 1440x1080 canvas was minified into a small eye region and
the text became hard to read. It is now submitted as a quad layer of its
own over the scene's projection or menu quad, which the compositor samples
directly at any render scale.
Each backend (D3D12, Windows Vulkan, Quest) makes the panel's swapchain
pair (plus two shared buffers on the Quest) the first time the panel
opens. While it is open, the frame hands Aurora one more stereo target
after the eyes, which the bridge fills with the panel texture or a
transparent image. The panel image follows the eyes' displayed/retained
pairing, so a cancelled frame never shows an unwritten panel. The quad
hangs where the pointer's hits are tested. Aurora leaves the panel out of
the eyes in layer mode, and a backend that cannot make the layer falls
back to drawing it into the eyes.
On the Quest, debug.wiicompiled.panel_layer 0 selects the old path at
run time. Measured there at a race start (render_scale 0.8), the layer
costs nothing while the panel is closed; while it is open, app GPU time is
10.5 ms against 9.7 ms drawn into the eyes, with unchanged frame rates.
The replay tests cover lazy creation, cancelled frames, closed and
unplaced panels, and render-first pacing on D3D12 and Windows Vulkan.
