/**
 * PatchWriter writes out tessellation patches, formatted with their specific attribs, to a GPU
 * buffer.
 *
 * PatchWriter is a template class that takes traits to configure both its compile-time and runtime
 * behavior for the different tessellation rendering algorithms and GPU backends. The complexity of
 * this system is worthwhile because the attribute writing operations and math already require
 * heavy inlining for performance, and the algorithmic variations tend to only differ slightly, but
 * do so in the inner most loops. Additionally, Graphite and Ganesh use the same fundamental
 * algorithms, but Graphite's architecture and higher required hardware level mean that its
 * attribute configurations can be determined entirely at compile time.
 *
 * Traits are specified in PatchWriter's single var-args template pack. Traits come in two main
 * categories: PatchAttribs configuration and feature/processing configuration. A given PatchAttrib
 * can be always enabled, enabled at runtime, or always disabled. A feature can be either enabled
 * or disabled and are coupled more closely with the control points of the curve. Across the two
 * GPU backends and different path rendering strategies, a "patch" has the following structure:
 *
 *   - 4 control points (8 floats total) defining the curve's geometry
 *      - quadratic curves are converted to equivalent cubics on the CPU during writing
 *      - conic curves store {w, inf} in their last control point
 *      - triangles store {inf, inf} in their last control point
 *      - everything else is presumed to be a cubic defined by all 4 control points
 *   - Enabled PatchAttrib values, constant for the entire instance
 *      - layout is identical to PatchAttrib's definition, skipping disabled attribs
 *      - attribs can be enabled/disabled at runtime by building a mask of attrib values
 *
 * Currently PatchWriter supports the following traits:
 *   - Required<PatchAttrib>
 *   - Optional<PatchAttrib>
 *   - TrackJoinControlPoints
 *   - AddTrianglesWhenChopping
 *   - DiscardFlatCurves
 *
 * In addition to variable traits, PatchWriter's first template argument defines the type used for
 * allocating the GPU instance data. The templated "PatchAllocator" can be any type that provides:
 *    // A GPU-backed vertex writer for a single instance worth of data. The provided
 *    // LinearTolerances value represents the tolerances for the curve that will be written to the
 *    // returned vertex space.
 *    skgpu::VertexWriter append(const LinearTolerances&);
 *
 * Additionally, it must have a constructor that takes the stride as its first argument.
 * PatchWriter forwards any additional constructor args from its ctor to the allocator after
 * computing the necessary stride for its PatchAttribs configuration.

// *** TRAITS ***

// Marks a PatchAttrib is enabled at compile time, i.e. it must always be set and will always be
// written to each patch's instance data. If present, will assert if the runtime attribs do not fit.
template <PatchAttribs A> struct Required {};
// Marks a PatchAttrib as supported, i.e. it can be enabled or disabled at runtime. Optional<A> is
// overridden by Required<A>. If neither Required<A> nor Optional<A> are in a PatchWriter's trait
// list, then the attrib is disabled at compile time and it will assert if the runtime attribs
// attempt to enable it.
template <PatchAttribs A> struct Optional {};

// Enables tracking of the kJoinControlPointAttrib based on control points of the previously
// written patch (automatically taking into account curve chopping). When a patch is first written
// (and there is no prior patch to define the join control point), the PatchWriter automatically
// records the patch to a temporary buffer--sans join--until writeDeferredStrokePatch() is called,
// filling in the now-defined join control point.
//
// This feature must be paired with Required<PatchAttribs::kJoinControlPoint>
struct TrackJoinControlPoints {};

// Write additional triangular patches to fill the resulting empty area when a curve is chopped.
// Normally, the patch geometry covers the curve defined by its control points, up to the implicitly
// closing edge between its first and last control points. When a curve is chopped to fit within
// the maximum segment count, the resulting space between the original closing edge and new closing
// edges is not filled, unless some mechanism of the shader makes it so (e.g. a fan point or
// stroking).
//
// This feature enables automatically writing triangular patches to fill this empty space when a
// curve is chopped.
struct AddTrianglesWhenChopping {};

// If a curve requires at most 1 segment to render accurately, it's effectively a straight line.
// This feature turns on automatically ignoring those curves, with the assumption that some other
// render pass will produce equivalent geometry (e.g. middle-out or inner triangulations).
struct DiscardFlatCurves {};

// Upload lines as a cubic with {a, a, b, b} for control points, instead of the truly linear cubic
// of {a, 2/3a + 1/3b, 1/3a + 2/3b, b}. Wang's formula will not return an tight lower bound on the
// number of segments in this case, but it's convenient to detect in the vertex shader and assume
// only a single segment is required. This bypasses numerical stability issues in Wang's formula
// when evaluated on the ideal linear cubic for very large control point coordinates. Other curve
// types with large coordinates do not need this treatment since they would be pre-chopped and
// culled to lines.
