- New RHI command list SetTrackedAccess method for the user to supply a current whole-resource state.
- New RHI command context GetTrackedAccess method for querying the tracked access in RHIBeginTransitions / RHIEndTransitions on the RHI thread.
- Hooked RHICmdList.Transition and FRHICommandListExecutor::Transition to assign tracked state automatically.
- Refactored RDG and resource pools to use new RHI tracking.
- FRDGPooledBuffer / FRDGPooledTexture no longer contain tracked state. RDG temp-allocates state through the graph allocator instead.
- All prologue transitions are 'Unknown', and all epilogue transitions coalesce into a whole resource state.
- Implemented platform support for patching the 'before' state with the tracked state.
- Implemented various RHI validation checks:
- Asserts that the user assigned tracked state matches RHI validation tracked state, for all subresources.
- Asserts that tracked state is not assigned or queried from a parallel translation context.
- Added FRHIViewableResource and FRHIView base classes to RHI. FRHIView contains a pointer to an FRHIViewableResource. This is currently a raw pointer, but should be extended to a full reference in a later CL.
NOTE on RHI thread constraint:
Transition evaluation is now restricted to the RHI thread (i.e. no parallel translation contexts). Transitions aren't performed in parallel translate contexts anyway, so this is not a problem. If, however, we decide to refactor parallel translation to be more general, this implementation could be extended to track the state per context and update from the 'dispatch' thread.

- Refactored RDG to support free-threaded execution of passes.
- Refactored renderer to use specific RHI command list variants in pass lambda. Immediate command list passes are forced to stay on the render thread, while other variants can be parallelized.

- New Drain() method on FRDGBuilder; will flush all pending work.
- Drained passes are not culled; resource lifetimes are extended; async compute fences are optimized as best as possible but fence joining may occur after the drain.
- Batch up and pre-build all resource transitions. This is a prerequisite for parallel command lists.
- Removed ServiceLocalQueue passes with built-in RDG AddDispatchHint().
#jira UE-114622
[CL 16393495 by zach bethel in ue5-main branch]
- Replaced legacy transient support from RDG and replaced with new API.
- Reworked acquire / discard operations a bit and added RHI validation to track correctness.
- Reworked RDG barrier batching to include acquire / discard operations.
- Hardened render pass merging logic and expanded to support lifetime extension of transient resources.
- Added transient tag to RDG insights to track which resources are transient.
